• 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.

Man, I was looking up this one chemical to aid in sleeping since I've had to deal with a strange sleep schedule lately (and it's never good for my body or my mental status, so I've been trying to find chemicals that can aid in sleep other than prescription drugs and melatonin). What I continue to find is that if it is a chemical, it has the capabilities for recreational purposes. So many substances can be used for what doctors recommend, recreational purposes, and abuse...it's crazy...I am keen on researching the substances I use for whatever purpose, whether it be to trip or to sleep or to stay awake or for nutrients or whatever...but sometimes I'm surprised...I guess I shouldn't be by now...kids are doing whatever they can to get high.
