• 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

Greetings to my precious family in Christ!
I just wanted to stop in say that I miss you all. You have always been such a blessing and encouragement to me in my walk with Christ. I'm sorry to have been away for so long. My days have been too full as of late. I've needed to cut back on some things in order to be able to complete a task. Meanwhile there's been an excruciating trial in my family. It's been like living through a nightmare that is all too real. Still I know that in all things God is at work. The things that are hidden in this difficult circumstance are not hidden from God. Rather than focusing on the circumstance I'm trying very hard to focus on who God is IN this circumstance.
I've hesitated to come on here and give any explanation as to why I've been so absent mostly because I don't want to give the impression that my presence or absence on this forum has any effect on the great work that God is accomplishing through it. On the other hand I just wanted to let you all know just how much I miss you and how much I look forward to being able to actively participate in our discussions again. I also wanted to tell all of you that I have continued and will continue to pray for all of you as you "walk by faith and not by sight" in and through the suffering of OCD.
I love you guys sooo much!! Please pray for my family - that in everything God would be glorified and that His truth would prevail.
Jesus: "I have come into the world to testify to the truth. Everyone who is on the side of truth listens to me."
Thank you for your love and prayers.
