• 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.

I have been sober 9 weeks now.
I said to Jesus I couldn't do this on my own, (believe me I have tried on my own) so I said I really need your help and guidance.
The next day I had no desire to drink, and I had NO WITHDRAWALS!
This has to be a miracle!
I have been drunk constantly for 2 1/2 year.

I just realised I can reach my potential as a human being with the help of Him
I actually feel happy for the first time since I was 12 (the year I rejected Christ).

Hugs to everyone.
Stay strong!

BLESS GOD...I sincerely PRAISE HIM for your testimony.
I think that when I've struggled with 'anything' that when I reach 'MY LIMIT' of self restraint and plead to God that 'I' can't...that is WHEN he has removed the struggle entirely from me.

I truly give GLORY to GOD for your testimony here... :)
