• 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.

  • Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Please help me. I have always been afraid of food. Not long ago the fear was so great and I did not eat at all. I got while I could eat in the end but it was real hard. Now my doctor has told me off about my weight and yesterday he was horrible. I am not that overweight but yes I am a bit overweight but not that overweight but I see myself as gross and I hate myself and the way I look. I always have because of childhood abuse. My mohter hated me and wanted rid of me and she starved me. She tried to kill me as well when i was very young. I hate myself and want to be invisible. I was coping until the doctor said what he said and he did nto say it nicely and did not understand me at all.

I want to be invisible and the only way to be invisible is to die. That is how I feel. I went to the doctofs with arthritis in my feet and knees and I keep falling. But he blamed myf ood. I told him i did not eat much and it is true and i often leave half of my dinner. I tol dhim I could not exercise because of the arthritis and he cut in as I was speaking and said that it is nothing to do with exercise and taht I have to eat less food. Well I don't eat much food. I dont know why i am overweight. I am not deceiving myself either. My husband tried to tell him but he would not listen to him either.

I dont know what to do and i need help

I'm so sorry, sweetie. It sounds as though you need to change doctor!
Can yo talk to someone about the way you feel? A counselor or therapist might be able to help you find some strategies for coping with the feelings :hug:

Remember, sweetie, God created you for purpose, you are unique and beautiful, and very, very much loved. Try to hold on to that :hug:

Praying for you :hug:
