Recovery Related Spiritual Advice
This sub-forum is for members who are struggling with a recovery issue and dealing with spiritual struggles because of or related to it. This is a moderated forum, where all posts must be approved before becoming live. There is no debate allowed in this forum, and no spiritual warfare posts or spiritual warfare related links allowed. OPs that are not asking for advice will be removed. Posts that are asking if God still loves me or if this is a sin need to be posted in Ask a Chaplain.
Christians and non-Christians may start threads asking questions of advice, only 1 OP per thread may ask questions but only Orthodox Christians may reply. If another member wishes to ask questions relating to or on a different topic about themselves and spiritual & recovery issues, must start a new OP.
Please review the recovery guidelines and site wide rules before posting in this forum.
Posts that deal with issues of sexuality and wanting to overcome sexual issues will be moved to the Struggles with Sexuality Forum. Posts that are not seeking advice, will be removed or moved if possible to a more appropriate area.
This forum provides support as well as encouragement from others going through similar issues or who have possibly been successful at making those changes.
OFF Topic Posts/Threads
Preaching or theological teaching or debating as this part of the forum is not for theological discussions, but for support and spiritual encouragement.
No self-promotion of books, recordings, YouTube videos or websites/blogs to gain advertising.
Posts that are not supportive of the Original Poster’s question of advice will be removed.
Discouragement of medications and medical treatment will be removed and staff actions will be issued due to the severity of risk related to diagnosing someone and giving treatment advice from professionals or non-professionals online.
Any posts dealing with spiritual warfare will be removed. Insinuating that members are possessed or that their health issues are caused by demons or due to sin is not permitted. This includes the devil is the whole problem. Linking to sites offline that address spiritual warfare are not permitted as well. Posts that balance out the the fact that both mental/physical health issues and spiritual issues may be at play rather than only spiritual issues are to blame, may be allowed.
