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 was in an abusive relationship several years ago and lost some hearing and a lot of eyesight. I got my hearing back a few months later, but my eyesight was really messed up. Some days I could see clearer than usual, but other days I couldn't see that good. I had my eyes checked and my sight was 20/30 close up and 20/50 far away.
I now have glasses and yeah, I don't think I look that great in them, but they help me see, so I ain't complaining!
One thing that was a hoot was after trying on several pair, the lady realized I needed to go to the kids' section!

I'm sure you look just fine in your glasses
We women should NEVER comment on our own looks... I find we are quite judgemental of ourselves lol

I'm thankful that we have other bpers to get ideas from to solve problems in our own life.
For example, this morning I hijacked Wendy's thread to find out I should go for a gradual med overhaul. Thanks Wendy and WonderWaleye and Childof the king.
