• 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.

Alexis:

Tell us how you are doing. It's over the hill (past the midpoint of the 56 day goal). That you are not forgotten by me is the evidence that you are not forgotten by our Lord Jesus or his Father, who does not sleep and keeps his eyes on you.

Rupert

PS: What is Dora the Explorer? I don't want to miss a serious fun if it is one.

So Rupert...all of a sudden you remember me. Oh well. I am doing really good. I wasn 't for about a week but I didn't cut so that was good. I am on like day 33 or something like that. It's crazy. I AM going to overcome this by the grace of God. The only way I can do this is if I reach out to God when I feel like cutting because if I try to do it on my own...it becomes a horrible failure. Yeah anyways.....

Dora the Explorer is a childrens tevelvision show that a little spanish girl is like the "host" of. She teaches little kids spanish kinda. I only like it because I am kind of a fan of little kids TV shows, not that I watch very much tv but when I happen to watch it with my little brother...(who loves DOra the Explorer) and we are sitting there cuddling then he starts laughing...that is the best sound in the world to hear. He is six years old and he is still really attached to me. I was basically his mom for a couple years. That is over now though. So anyways that was probably really off topic...Whatever. I really don't care.

I didn't remember you all of a sudden. I prepared a cheat sheet where I keep names and notes. I am glad you are doing well.

I will have to miss out Dora The Explorer. I don't even know if it is on my TV.

Hi you'll. I really need some support today. I really have an urge to cut. I haven't since Monday and that is really good for me anyway but I am beginning to get that old feeling again... I have prayed and done everything but it is just... I have been happy all week and now I feel guilty because of it... I mean, I know it is crazy and I shouldn't think that way but I am just so frustrated and everything. Even the computer isn't acting right for me. My Mom and I were arguing today and I know she didn't mean it but she said, "Why want you just go to your room and cut..." It just really hurt me and I told her I would but then she said she wouldn't take me to the computer lab if I did... We are two stubborn people and we both apologized and everything but now I don't feel good at all and I just want to give up and cut but I don't want to because I hate sinning against God.... I read my notes on the spiritual fruits and everything but I just feel so weak and those old feelings of worthlessness are back today... I guess I should be use to these feelings by now, but they always come so much as a shock and I don't know if talking on here is going to help me right now or what... Lily00:angel: :(
