• 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

Does any one else just get tired of dealing with all there is to deal with? I'm feeling real guilty and as though I'm letting my self down bt not fully participating in my disorder? When I'm active in it other life situations don't seem to get to me as much. When I was younger my foster mom never delt with things. We never lost our composure. Never showed emotions this was a sign of weekness. So what I'm wondering is Is there much harm in not dealing with thing's right now? :confused: I just want that feeling of control back that comes with an ED. I want to be numb. And not have to think about all that is caotic. I feel that I'm constantly spinning, can't concentrate, and I still have the aches and pains. My health is not well. So if I'm already feeling this way why not fully participate and loose the weight:sigh: I geuss I'm just not ready to be healed:help:

:hug: sweetheart, God bless you! ED is very overwelming.
you are dealling with some struggles that pick your self esteem apart. again i mean to assure you that setting your problems down to focus on something else, like taking care of yourself emotionally is not ignoring your problems. it is good management to learn how to balance your life. focusing on the way God sees you. enjoying your son. a trip to the library. sabbethday. going to the park. hobbies. the point is we need to take pleasure in life. :hug: we need refreshed to refocus.

Dear Father, your ways are needed here. teach your child where to go, how to live. help her Father in her grief to start new, to rest on your Salvation, to hope in your blessings. Father help her to bear fruit in her life and exstend it to those she loves. Father we lift up these struggles and willfulness to you. we look to you to teach balance and disapline. we thank you for letting us call on you, and for your great love and faithful promises to us. in Jesus' name, amen.

God Bless you daysoni, I am big when it comes to *healing* I am reading a book called *Christ The Healer* by: F. F. BOSWORTH. Thousands upon thousands have been healed just by reading that book and really understanding healing. I cannot plead with you enough to read it. It will chang your life not because this person but god through this person. What do you have to lose, so I ask atleast try.Its up to you if you want to stay sick but, Jesus loves you more than you can ever imagine.So It's totally up to you, but please let me just say one thing to you.

The Bible says *that the thief (Satan) comes to steal, and kill, and destroy*. Jn 10:10.
So satan is the source of your disorder,problem, suffering etc. God isin't the source.Jesus Bore our (everyones, all, *you*) sicknesses. the word bore or bare means to remove,carry or take away. Jesus loves you so much even if you were the only person that committed a sin he would of still came down to earth to pay your price on the cross and it hurts him to see you in your sickness.

So make sure you have repented from your sins and pray to Jesus. I will pray for you.I believe god will heal you, you just have to thank god for healing you and believe it with your whole heart, believe him for the healing even before you see it. Thats called "Faith".
remember it is inportant to read that book which reveals gods word in a might way.

daysoni,
Life is full of struggles. That is what comes from living in a fallen world. The good news is that in Christ we have the power to live life by His power and the Holy Spirit. Daily I have to tap into His strength and His Word to get the resources I need to deal with the crap that life has to offer me. Life sucks big time. But, God can take my weaknesses and allow me to get through the storms of life with peace inside of me.

You have to daily, sometimes hourly, turn the day over to God, and cry out to Him for the strength to get through it. That is the Christian life. He doesn't want us living this life in our strength. His strength is made perfect in our weaknesses.
