• 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.

  • 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

My past with bipolar disorder runs as far back as I can remember and runs extremely deep. Last year, I found myself feeling like I had control for once in my life. However, as of late, I am losing control and it's terrifying. My days are constantly ruined and people are often hurt simply because of a drastic change in thought and mood. It seems like it becomes increasingly hard for others who don't have this disorder to understand and I continually beat myself up for making others miserable - even though I often can't help what happens. I know people say "yes you can help it." But in all actuality, it seems that you can't. Please pray that my engagement and relationship with the one's whom I love are not destroyed and I can regain control and give it to God. Please, if you have any advice, books to read that help, or any comments please let me know. Thank you brothers and sisters. God bless you all.

I cant post links so copy and paste this into your search engine:
premier mind and soul exploring christianity in mental health

and it will come with the site then go to resources and theres a books section. troubled minds is good and has a free chapter online when you follow the link to ivpress and go onto the press pack.

The site itself is dedicated to mental health and Christianity. I'm on my own personal struggle of mental health and find talking about it helps hense why I'm here. I pray you find your strength in Christ Jesus the rock who never changes, slumbers or sleeps and whose there in the midst of us always.
