• 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 just wanted to share some lyrics with you. These lyrics are really interesting if you think about them with regards to depression/SI, and kind of inspiring too.

The song is called "Perspectives" and by a song called Kutless. I'm sure you all know them. I've highlighted my favourite parts, the most interesting parts, with underlining.

Well here it is...

Kutless - Perspectives

It feels like your life's crashing down all around you,
Let me ask if it's really so bad?
Look at the world in it's suffering
Can you honestly tell me that no one else could understand
All the hurting inside

Why can't you see that freedom is sometimes simply another perspective away?
Who could you be if your lens was changed for a moment,
Would you still be the same?


A young child looks through a great stained glass window,
Watching the people go by
Everyone seems to be wearing a red coat
His mother sees jackets in white
Now he can't understand why does she see it this way?

Why can't you see that freedom is sometimes simply another perspective away?
Who could you be if your lens was changed for a moment,
Would you still be the same?

Yesterday, you really couldn't see
By changing your angle a new world would be

Revealed to your once blinded eyes
By moving a few degrees

Why can't you see that freedom is sometimes simply another perspective away?
Who could you be if your lens was changed for a moment,
Would you still be the same?
