• 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

Not dealing so well....

:cry:

The police are coming to see me again tomorrow - we have to go out to the place where it happened and they are going to take some of my clothes away. They are putting me in touch with a support group as well. They are helping me but I feel like I'm going to break down but I don't want to because everyone is expecting it. Basically what happened with this guy is he used his fingers to simulate sex, luckily I got away before it got further than that but I still feel used. Right now I'm feeling like I'm always the victim, it's like I walk around with a sign saying men, feel free to abuse me as you wish. I'm just tired and not coping so well right now. Please pray for me. I am getting to the stage of self-injury and I don't want to go down that road again.:(

I can't pretend to know how volating and degrading being taken advantage of like that must feel... But I can tell you keeping all of that strong emotion in will only comeout in ways you don't want, so please please let it go.. it's ok to break down and feel crummy that's a gift from the father.. our greifing is a physical vent for our emotional tourment.. and when we don't vent pressure like this pain your hanging on to, just like anything else we can pop... I don't know if you've ever learned to greive properly but if you haven't and you hurt your self while greiving, then my sister please get someone to help you greive... If you ever want to get over this then you have to let the pain out.

Godbless

Dear Beelte Queen, I think you should talk to a counsellor or therapist, to help you deal with the feelings. naturally you feel grief and shock, God will deal the person who hurt you, have no doubt about that. you'll feel better with time, for now, do your best to make sure no one else gets hurt by this terrible man, helping others will help you get over the pain. I have been hurt too and it doesnt mean you have a sign on you. I will Pray for your pain to heal fast and for you to be strong and know you're not alone, other people have got over it and you can too. Have hope and take it one day at a time. get support from your mum and family and a counsellor.
hugs, and love,
pam
