• 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 know what you mean, Loves. :hug: I do the same thing... the best thing is to get rid of those photos, I think, for whoever is going to want to look at them again? They were of you when you were unhealthy, and no one wants to be reminded of all of that. :hug: Especially if it triggers you. And I hate it when people say "Oh wow, April, you look healthy..." ... because in my mind "healthy" means "hearty" and "hearty" means "fat." :sigh: Gotta love the way our minds work sometimes!!

Ari, how are you doing? :hug::hug:
