• 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.

Dreams are nothing. You can't make a decision in a dream. If you don't remember it, how can it have any meaning?

What you do in a dream, fission, nightmare or day dream is not real.

It is not binding, does not affect your relationship with God.

God does not want us making promises, swearing oaths or making vows about life.
He wants us to say yes, I will do it and for us to do it, or no I will not do it and not to do it.
See Matt 5:33-37 Jesus says let your yes be yes.

If your OCD causes you to make vows etc, don't worry about them,Jesus knows that it is your illness that causes you do make them. Set your mind and spirit at peace by confessing them as 1. John1:9 says.

Don’t trust dreams. They’re not under your control. All is well.

I wouldn't worry about what you do in a dream. The Lord knows your heart.

If out of the blue, one of us were to dream of murdering someone, would we be held at fault by the Lord for murdering?

I do not think so. I think likewise, making oaths in a dream is not something you have to worry about.

Remember that fear of making unwanted vows is your obsession right now, so your mind will keep trying to convince you that you've done it. In this case, it's trying to make you afraid that you've vowed something in a dream. Keep ignoring your obsessive thoughts! :)
