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.

FredVB said:I need prayer, as it seems much of life goes contrary to me. There were disasters and crises throughout life and now I am diagnosed with something I suffer from that has no cure, which people die from. There is enough that is discouraging from this, besides the tendency toward depression anyway.

FredVB said:Thank you, Tempura, being lifted and my burden lifted is most meaningful for me.
Michaelaland, thank you too. Prayer for me is helpful to me, I am needing that. And for you, as you asked, I pray for you that God meets you with his provision in your needs.
This is a critical season for me, with the significantly colder weather. It would really bad for me to catch a common cold that I can't hold off, it is being affected by something like that which likely can shorten my life here.
Jeshu said:Did you know that garlic strengthens our immune system? We take one good size clove a day, (and four cloves 4 x a day when the first signs of a cold appear.) We cut the clove up finely and take it with just a bit of water. Because we don't chew it we don't smell to garlic during the day but our immune system is better equipped to fight of the flu and common colds.
Praying for deliverance from anxiety and depression. Depression is really clouding my vision (metaphorically), clarity of my thinking, ability to get things done. Prayers would be greatly appreciated.Put your prayer requests and praises here. We'll be praying over them.

I’m broken and I keep breaking. The more I try to connect to God the more depressed and anxious I become. I want to give up..what is happening? Please pray for me

It has been awhile since I updated my circumstances here. I have taken care of myself as well as I could. This year turned things upside down, like it did for others. I still needed to go someplace I cannot now, because of the widespread virus. Even if most are not seriously harmed by it, with my vulnerability it could kill me. Lately here it has gotten so hot I have missed too many days going to the store for what I need, I mean days over 100 F and several of the days over 115 F. Now from fires the air is far too smoky. I can't go out, my life would be shortened from my condition worsening, now I am really just about out of everything. And I have less money to work with.
Jeshu said:i hope Jesus will keep you safe, luckily He is The Lord of health and sickness, so we can put our faith in Him to look after us.
If i catch Covid it most properly kill me, my lungs are in very bad shape and i struggle just to survive a common cold.
Plenty of real vitamin C (6000+ a day), magnesium along with some vitamin B6 to strengthen your immune system. Eat a good size raw garlic clove every night before going to bed. Cut the clove up finely and swallow with some water. At the first sign of a cold take a garlic clove every 4-5 hours. It is really quiet amazing how long i have kept a solid flu at bay doing that.
Peace.
