• 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 anyone feel like they aren't accepted by the world and that they're sitting on the outside watching what's going on but they aren't a part of it? :scratch:

be glad that your not a part of it. God has set you apart for a reason if you are really apart from it :)

I feel like I am different. Not like I am just a different person than everyone else, but that I am strange different than others I am around as if I'm not normal. I have always felt this way, ever since I can remember. I even feel like I'm not a normal Christian. It's like I don't belong here, like I am a mistake. I can deal with it though with God's help. What else can I do?

Yes. I've felt that way so much. Not recently. But beginning of this year I felt that way so bad that I actually asked my friends if God had made a mistake. I understand exactly what you are going through. Lots of people feel that way, depression plays a major role in that.

I have felt that way from time to time but then I look at how far I have come and it doesn't matter what others think. Set your goals each and everyday and work toward accomplishing them. I think a lot of it is we bp's usually have a low self esteem because our lives have been hard and difficult. Many times feeling like failures, but that is far from the truth. We are not failures, we are overcomers and are working on changing our lives, our way of thinking, and our ways of coping with things. That is no easy feat and we sould be proud of how far we have come....:wave: ....God Bless You Rush
