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 am sorry you are struggling right now. The Lord is aware of your situation, and loves you very much. Don't forget to stay in the Word, and lean on the Lord when things get rough. I love to meditate on Psalm 139 when things get tough.

Hey.
Things aren't much better for me. Still struggling. I count my blessings often but sometimes the things that aren't good in my life just seem so much bigger and imposing than the good stuff.
My life is very limited (I have a few medical conditions that keep me from being 'normal') and I struggle with wanting to be more like an average person... I just want what I can't have - to have regular struggles and to make the best of them instead of being overwhelmed by all the challenges I face.
The Lord loves me and I hold on to that truth - its the reason I keep trying and forcing myself forward.
Thanks for your support, guys.

Hi Dee,
I think it's normal to feel overwhelmed in your situation. Sometimes what has helped me when I am feeling overwhelmed is to write down everything that is overwhelming me and the little tasks I can do to make things a bit easier for me. I am on a new list now but haven't started checking anything off yet as I need rest. I hope you will take all the time you need to just relax to some nice music or do what ever you do to relax. It is very important to be at ease, too. I am praying for healing for you. God bless you.
