• 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

Surf therapy??(prayers please)

Hey all, sorry I dont post alot in this forum, just been busy....well im sure many dont know, but ive been cutting for two years....i take meds and stuff, but fail too 95% of the time...ive been trying to think of a new way to take my self harseness,(my extreme self criticism, badgering etc) and surfing has came to mind. see ive loved the ocean since i was like months old and since five years ago, ive been wanting to surf with this passionate love. i never got around to it and now the love for it has swelled once again...i know i can do it once i learn to swim better and learn to drive(yeah, pathetic i know for being 21 :sigh: )and i think it would bring me alot closer to Christ too...sorry for this long mumbling...just thought i would bring it out....i really would be greatful for prayers...im such a chicken when it comes to my dreams :(:(

Hi heavenlieisland!

Do you have any friends that surf? Maybe you could just grab one of them and tell them you want to learn! You could always start by heading down to the beach, closing your eyes, listening to the surf, and just imagining in your mind yourself surfing and enjoying it.

:prayer: Heavenly Father, I lift heavenlieisland to your comforting presence. Please be with her during her times of need. Help her to turn to you when she needs your power. Lord, she has expressed this love she has for your magnificent creation - the ocean. Fill her with the courage and ability to pursue her dream of surfing, and let that be an effective outlet for her emotions. In Jesus' name. Amen.
