• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I posted earlier on somethings but now that I have read some other posting not sure what's going on with me? when this first started I was scared out of my mind. people said I looked on edge all the time . my family and co worker thought I was going crazy I and still do) but I feel like now I don't care like I have no feelings I want to follow christ but I don't know if I can with this feeling of emptiness has anyone ever felt like this and how do I get back to the place of fear or anything ? I feel like I let it go on to long or gone to far that god has turned me over to a reprobate mind I want to serve christ but even as I write this I hear in my mind that I don't and I'm just faking m what can I do ?

Yes I feel like that. For me I think as time goes on I doubt more and more and there is a side that really doesn't believe and doesn't want to. Then the other side freaks and says but what if he is there!!! Your going to hell. I really don't think mine has anything to do with OCD. I am really mostly unbelieving(agnostic) and I am afraid.

I'm not agnostic I believe in christ as my saver but I don't understand why I have these thoughts they just started one day as blasphemy and I went to my pastor and him and some others started asking me if I believed or not and said I had lil faith and since then the unbelief has been at me like non-stop and I wish it would go away so I can serve christ like I want to but I have no passion and now every at nightie keep having dreams that are not of him
