• 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.

I am not sure if I can even post here. I was not married, but engaged. Anyway...

I wound up pregnant. I was due on Valentines day. In november, 10 weeks before my due date...

I went in for an ultrasound. One of those 3-D ones. I was so very excited. I had a daughter from a previous marriage, and was now expecting a son. My fiance was so very excited, because he was not even supposed to be able to have children, and here we were, having a boy! A boy to carry on his family name (he was the fourth with that name).With my child on his lap, we watched as the ultrasound lady took measurements... for some reason, she did not proceed to the 3-d one, but went and got the doctor who then told me the words every woman dreads... "There is no heartbeat"

So on november 21st, 2005 at 6 in the morning. I gave birth to a two pound, 12 inch long baby boy. He was perfect. I have never forgiven myself for his death. I still feel to this day... that I did something wrong. You see, my placenta abrupted and he basically had no nutrients withinwhich to live.

*shrugs* That is my story.
