• 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.

I haven't really been to CF sine 2010 until very recently.

I used to really participate here as a I am very bipolar.

I went off my meds again about a year ago and I recently crashed and burned again as a result of that decision.

Now I'm on some new meds. They are helping but not entirely.

I also just need Jesus to carry me through this rockey up and down road I'm on. Any input and prayers are welcome.

The precipitating event was a bully threatening to kill my 11 year old daughter. It brought up a lot of old baggage regaurding my ex husband who in addition to abusing me and my entire family also molested my older daughter.

I carry guilt about a lot of that and it's hard for me to let go and let God.

Thanks for listening.
