• 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 was doing well. when suddenly ocd started giving me worries. I could not ignore them. compulsions etc. I was so frustrated that the ocd returned. that for a second, I was like so [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]ed off that some unwanted thoughts popped up in my mind. there were thoughts without my will about punishments and promises to God. but I did not want them. they just popped up. I was so frustrated with my ocd and instead of swear and bad words coming in my head, they came thoughts that I try to avoid. thoughts without my will about promises and punishments. I used the word "swears" to help you understand better.

for example, when you are [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]ed of with someone for a second you may think or yell stuff like swears. bad words.

well, the same thing happened in my head but they were not swears, they were thoughts without my will about punishments. I do not know why the appeared in my head. it was like I was so frustrated and they just appeared. I did not want them. but I worry now. I am not sure if they are valid maybe just because, due to frustration, I stopped controlling them. I am worrying again. it just happened in a second. I did not want to think these thoughts. I was so frustrated and they just appeared. please calm me down.
