• 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.

  • 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.

I will pray if you like:)

I have not experienced restlessness like I think you are describing, but I have had much restlessness about where my life was that caused much depression and anger.

God's cured my restlessness (still much else to work through), and even though they are different I have faith that He will help yours as well. I will pray for your doctor visit, and that God will guide and instruct you in your healing.

P.S. I would like an update if your up to it later:)

Meds is a hard thing to deal with especially when getting new ones or getting off old ones.

No matter what happens remember that God does want you to be healthy. Have faith, and if you lose it pray to God for more, and He will give you the faith you need to take you to the next day.

:prayer: I pray that God will show the doctors the right meds for you as He is your creator and knows every part of your body from the hair on your head to the chemistry of your body. He is the Creator of Peace, and He will lead you to peace that can't be explained, a peace only God can give.

Let us know what happens at the doctor:wave:

If it helps I have been there. Not the same but similiar. Some med's do cause weight gain wich are sad. It took awhile to find one that worked for me and it is one that doesn't usually cause weight gain. Another thing that worked for me was to take my med's at the night time. They gave me more energy during the day. If I took them during the day then I was up all night. And one last thing with anti depressents it's important to take them at the same time every time every day. I will pray that you find peace and rest and energy all when you need it. And that you find what works for you form God and the doctors. Feel free to pm me anytime....

It bring me joy to see the Hope you have in God. And God allows us room for whining, otherwise God would have shut me up long ago:)

I'm so glad to see that you have endured and that you feel the Lords Hands in your live.

I will pray for you, that the Lord will carry you through this time, even if it is one day at a time :)
