• 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.

Hey everyone.

I write this as someone who is, as the title of this post proclaims, at rock bottom and completely beaten down. I have messed up my life completely. I was brought up Christian and have always believed however I was baptised by full water immersion about a decade or so ago and for whatever reason, I still went completely off the rails and ended up in some very dark places indeed. The occult, Paganism, New Age. I became addicted to inappropriate contentography and although my tastes were legal they have still weakened me. I feel dirty to be perfectly honest. Last night, I used erotic imagery to get myself off and I hope it's for the last time. I got down on my knees and repented. I asked God to forgive me for my sins and I handed my life and my will over to His care. Immediately I felt a light enter me and today I cried. I almost gave in to sexual temptation today but I prayed to God and asked Him to help heal me. I felt the load instantly get lighter. I am done trying to do things my way. They never work. I am beaten and I know it. It's good to be here.
