• 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 started weaning off of risperidal (4 mg) and got down to nothing. I was stable for a month. Now the past week, I have been having weird symptoms. The past couple of days, I have been carrying around a bottle of seroquel. I have been thinking about taking the maximum dosage as the minimum dosage totally knocks me out. Maybe then I could have some peace. So, I just took 75 mg. Which isn't that big - as I am sure you know. I don't think that my husband understands what it is like - he just gets angry. So, I will make an appointment to see my psychiatrist on Monday.

I am just upset because we have been talking about another baby and this will kind of kill that. Which, when it sinks in, will devastate me and I will need to deal with that on top of things.

I would appreciate your prayer and support.

Well, I saw my doctor today and she has said that I should go back on the risperidal (2 mg - then down to 1 mg in two weeks). I don't know what I should do about it. I feel like I am thinking clearly about things now - that I haven't been for a long time. She says that I am just a tad psychotic. I don't know what to do. I just want to go home. (wherever that is)
