I am so tired of fighting the pain each day. I am so tired of fighting the love I feel. I am so fed up with dealing with the tears, and the broken heartedness day after day. I am at the end of my rope. I want to live. I want to life for God, and his wonderful plan for my life. But how long will it take? It feels like eternity. Please pray that I will heal.

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.
So tired.....

Speechless I am to very tired this week has really worn me down to the bone, and more and more I have thoughts that enter my mind about giving it all up. Our situations are different but the pain is the same. Keep your eyes to the sky, you will endure all this as long as God sees fit and you must trust that His way is to lead you in the right direction, now follow. You are a young one in Christ as I was and God didnt do what I thought or wanted Him to so I turned on Him, but he never turned on me and I see now that this has all played out in His time and His way, we as followers must accept that not neccisarily understand it. Chin up girl there is great comfort in those of us here. Do not forget your prayers are meant for God but evil hears them and plays its part to tear you down, you loving God makes the enemy want to turn you to the world even more, stay strong.

suicide is from the Devil and I have been fortunate not to have been tormented by it. Now killing someone else crosses my mind

If I seem too lighthearted, don't take it that way.
But I have been there, I have been at the point of suicide almost. But I made it. God never left my side. It may not seem that way now, I know. I've been there.

Me too I tried to commit suicide but I was spared, this made me so angry.
I know now that God didn't want to let me go He's much stronger than satan.
I know what the pain is like I had it for years and Years I know how unbearable it is but hang on to God he will heal you in His own time.
I'm praying for you,
Love Laura

Someone sent me a poem once. It said that yesterday and tomorrow are awful eternities...and that one can get depressed just thinking about the big picture. But if we focus on today, it gets easier. Hand yesterday to God. He has it now, all the pain, the problems, the heartaches. Live today, and when you put your head on your pillow, in prayer, hand the day you've lived to God. Then when you awake in the morning, accept the gift of that new day and focus on that day.
The analogy also applies to a flight of stairs. I can get really depressed when I think of the steps I had to climb to get to the statue of liberty. One at a time. Look at each step. Before you know it, you're at the top.
Finally, a third piece of advice which was given to me was Exodus 14:14, something about that we don't have to fight anymore. Give it to God, and keep your peace.
Two years ago, a dear friend violated my trust deeply. She then went silent and wouldn't talk to me. She had adopted me as a little sister. Part of me was horrified. I remember days and days of being so hurt.
The gifts for my healing actually came from the advice of some of her family members and friends. They said to me...give it to God.
And I have. It's 2 a.m. now. I'm going to hand today to God. I don't have to worry about it anymore. I accepted His call, and I lived it the best way I could. I'm looking forward to the gift of my life that is given to me tomorrow morning..just that day. It may not have ribbons on it, but it's a gift.
One more thing to ponder. We are worthy. Who made you? Look up. You were carefully knit in your mother's womb, by a smiling God who loves you. Feel that...look at your fingers, your hands, your feet..you are a work of God's art. He's quite the artist, our God. He doesn't make junk.
Behold - you are lovingly made. So...the Creator of you smiled when He thought you up...your parents welcomed you with hugs. The missing piece is...loving yourself and realizing that you are priceless. All the people in this whole entire world and not one of them could ever be you!
The next time you feel depression coming on, say these words "I am worthy because God made me, and He knows what He's doing!" then dance through your days..accept them just one at a time.
Chin up. You are on the journey of a lifetime. Give Him yesterday, completely. If you can't do it at home, go to your local church, and leave a rose on the altar and say "God, I completely surrender yesterday to you..it's gone. It does not exist anymore! Yesterday is yours".
We know that God is the final judge of us. Just live your life the best way you know how and don't sweat the rest. I think the God who made your nose, and your eyes, and loves the way you laugh, is waiting close to your heart...to give you once again, the gift of life...why don't you open your hands and accept it tomorrow morning when you open your eyes?
Blessings,
Lillian

I don't know what you have gone through, but I feel like saying this. You need to start to realize who you are. When you gave your life to Jesus, you were reborn. Your spirit man came to life. You are a spirit, you have a soul, and you live in a body. The problem is that you are living out of your soul (feelings), instead of out of your spirit. You (your spirit) have been born out of God. You have been made completely righteous. You are a new creation, the old has gone, the new has come. Your spirit has been created in the image of God. You are part of the body of Christ, far above all principalities and powers of this earth. God is Spirit, and so are you, having access to His throne and being able to communicate with Him! You already have been made whole by Jesus' work at the cross. Start believing these things and start living out of them. Control your emotions instead of having them control you. God bless!
