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.

Call Me A Sinner, Call Me A Saint..
i know how you feel. That's what started me to cutting again(this was a few months back). My boyfriend of 3 years and I broke up in September and things went downhill for me..i cut, almost dropped out of school, and almost committed suicide(tried to 2 times).
What made me stop was that I came to the realization that hurting myself over him was silly. No one is worth giving your life for..and no one is worth hurting yourself over.
I am sure you loved her very much, but you shouldnt hurt yourself over it. Maybe God has someone better in store for you in the future. You just have to have faith and believe.
I know in times like these, its hard to do that, but it is possible to do.
Have you tried talking to someone close to you about how you feel?maybe a trusted friend? Sometimes talking about it will relieve some pain.
If you would like to PM me, feel free to. I can try my best to give you my opinion(since you know I went through something similar). Although sometimes I do not give the greatest words, I do try my hardest to help.
I hope and pray God eases this pain you have on your heart.
God Bless

Dear TheCrimson,
I am sorry for the bad breakup you had. It must've been difficult. It sounds to me like you need professional help to overcome the desire to hurt yourself. Seek God's face all the time. Turn to Him for your hurts. Please pm me if you'd like. God bless you, Tapero

I remember being in that place before. Was the very first time I really started cutting. I don't know all of your circumstances but for me I felt even abandoned by God because of how ungodly that relationship had been. Do not forget the precious promises in the Bible that God will never leave you or forsake you. That he is your strength when you feel weak...that he is your ever present help in danger. Obviously you have a lot bottled up inside and you don't have a safe way to get it out...I too feel it might be time to call in for some profession help. You can always PM me too if you need to talk privately.
luv, berry

Basically this is what happened when i was with her one of my best friends had a crush on me and i had no idea. She would say things like it breaks my heart seeing u with someone else and dont do anything u wouldnt regret or no pain lasts forever. I actually believed her... Also she hadsome problems 2 one time she tried to take her life and she told me that iwas the reason she was living and not only that she kept giving me these notes she kept pressuring me without knowing it to leave my girlfriend. In a way i felt obligated. Also my when i was with my girlfriend she had problems and still does with depression and cutting. Anyway I broke up with her for my friend and it didnt even last that long because b4 i made the decision I asked God what to do and he told me to not be with neither of them and that meant i had to break up with my girlfriend anyway but i didnt listen and then it turned into a big giant mess and not only that when i broke up with her she hurt herself alot.cutting, crying, straving herself, not sleeping and doing inhalants. and i am getting professional help i see a psychiratrist and a counselor. Im also taking antidepressants.

It takes time to get better. I'm glad to hear that you've got professional help and meds, but it will take time and strength on your part to get better. Meds and professional help will not end cutting - it's YOU that's got to make the decision to stop. The strength will come from God if you ask Him to help you. Remember, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." (Phil. 4:13). I know that you can do this - it will just take time and a lot of focus.

Me agree with soulwings. Keeping support is just that support only you can change behavior. It will take time and loads of support. But it is possible. As with any addiction you have to take it one day at a time especially in the beginning.
As you struggle remember:
"Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus"
lay your struggle at the foot of the the cross and ask God to help you each day. For we cannot conqueor sin on our own strength but only by what Christ did on the cross will we ever truly find freedom.
