• 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.

My brother's name is Joshua. He is in the hospital right now due to complications concerning his herion addiction. He is 28 and has harding of his arteries and major blood clots. The devil has my brother bound and tied up in the noose of herion addiction. I understand where he is at, today I have been off the needle for seven months. God helped me, Jesus came not for the well but for the SICK...and JOSH is very very sick. I am keeping this post short. I posted earlier but my very long post seemed disapper. I pray that God would send the right people to this post who would have a heart to pray for my brother and intercede for him. I know Jesus is the great intercessor and prays for us always.....Jesus help Josh Jesus help the people praying for him...Jesus Help me...AMEN:prayer::prayer::prayer::prayer::prayer::prayer::prayer:

I am praying for Joshua. I know what it is like to be addicted to various things, but I'm sure Herion must be one of the toughest. I just said a prayer for your brother involving many things. I pictured him in my mind in that hospital bed, and said specific prayers. Jesus hears every one of our prayers. God bless:prayer::prayer::prayer::prayer:

Hi Rosie,

My name is Johanna and I prayed for your brother to get well and to be freed of his addiction. I know the hardship of addiction because I have some cousins who were also in the grips of heroin addiction. May God help Joshua and bring him back to his life and family unharmed, wiser, and free of this horrid addiction disease. Amen.

I'm very sorry to hear what you are going through. I've had a similar struggle with opiates with my brother and it is very hard to deal with. I'm praying for both you, your brother and your family. You should look into teen challenge. The program is named teen challenge but they take in all ages. We did everything we could for my brother and everything failed until he went into this program.
