• 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

I'm falling back into depression so quickly that I can't even keep track of it all. I have an eating disorder and its so hard. None of my friends know except one, and that one really couldnt care less...anyone who does know just critisizes me about it and I'm sick of it. :cry:

I've lost 4 friends to suicide, and I miss them so, so much, lately, there's not one moment of the day where I'm genuinely not in pain. I hate being like this so much. I like how I have been with out depression...i've been happy, and it has been amazing. I hate this. I feel like everything is caving in on me...i just feel like disappearing. please pray for me. :sigh:

Dear Lord, I come to your throne of grace on behalf of PureGrace. You said we could come boldly, and ask for help in time of need. By faith, I receive for her your mercy and help to deliver her from the plans of the enemy. Lord, in the authority of the Name of Jesus, I break off of her mind this spirit of heaviness, this veil of darkness. I command her release to your rule and reign in her life right now. I speak to her mind to receive your thoughts of peace and hope right now, in Jesus Name. Amen.

Lord I pray in agreement with ChurchLady. Your word says when two or more come together that whatever is bound in heaven is bound on earth. So, Lord IN THE NAME OF JESUS I command the stronghold of depression to break off Kate. I ask for the Holy Spirit to come and bathe her in peace and protection. May she continue to seek and lean upon you, Lord. May you continue to strenthen and hear her cry in her time of need. Lord, I love Kate so much and pray for her well being. My love for her is miniscule in comparison to the love and mercy you show her daily. Thank you Lord for your wisdom and direction. In Jesus' name these things we pray...AMEN.


:prayer: :hug: :kiss: :hug: :hug: :amen:

I am so sorry for your pain, friend. I felt it too - my very best friend I ever had committed suicide. I finally got past the pain, and now I can remember good things about her and smile.

This all is probably nothing new to you, but those suicides had to cause you a lot of stress. Post traumatic stress disorder can cause chemical depression. That is a physical illness - I recommend you soon go to your doctor to get his opinion and help if needed.

Also, I'm not sure what you mean by "disappearing", but if you're having suicidal thoughts, please see someone in the health field immediately - like today - preferably a Christian.

I'm praying for you, friend. There is life after depression, and with God it can be great. I know from my own experience. Please pm me if you want to know more, or read my website listed on my profile page.

"My misery became my ministry, and my mess became my message."

Aloha in Jesus
