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.

Yeah my life is like that at times too, I get scared of being in treatment at times because seeing my weight going up scares the heck outta me! Its a consuming thing ##/#, but I am trying soooo hard to stop the thoughts before I take them any further!!!! Kerin, also you dont need to lose X amount of weight to be any better, I know this true now...and I know its hard to teach ourselves that healthy is beautiful...but it is because healthy provides us a life...a life God intended for us...a life taking good care of your children and being their role models for a picture of health and love towards God...also being a ###% wife....we have got to strive for health and a life...instead of this slow death we have been traveling down....we need to step up and say NO to this..instead of yes and maybe all the time...kick the thoughts....its hard...but distraction has really helped me...and also being open about it to other people helps....
