• 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.

  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

The last week has been awful. Last Sunday night an ice storm downed trees and power lines. Power was out for four days (school was out for all 5 days). Forunately we had heat, but it was still an ordeal. Then the very hour (5pm on Thursday) the power came back on, my husband had to go to the ER for a suspected infection of the knee joint (it was bothering him for the last couple of days then he developed a fever). They admitted him to the hospital in the wee hours of the morning. My children (I have three) and I went to see him Friday night. Then on the way home my middle child got sick. On Saturday my older two were sick. Then on Sunday (today) just my younger one is sick. As for my husband, they ruled out any infection and discovered a tear in the Meniscus which is cartilage. Apparently, since it has little in the way of blood supply, it takes a long time to heal. Also if the tear is bigger, it of course, takes longer to heal. I don't know how big it is. Anyways, the doctors are pondering whether surgery is needed to speed healing.

*sigh*

I feel wiped out. I sure hope all this doesn't bring on an episode or anything. I've been pretty level lately.

Please pray for us.

I am not bipolar, so please forgive me for posting here. I saw your note on the main forum listings, and wanted to let you know that I am praying for you.

I think that what you've been through could cause anyone to suffer a round of depression, and that you deserve tremendous praise for handling everything as well as you have handled it so far.
