• 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

thank you

hello again

i know just a few days aog i left a post telling everyone about that worst parts of my life. i have received messages and replys from so many different people. i appreciate all of your advice, and just that the fact that you all have acknowledged me. i absolutely loved the feeling...and still do. i never realised how many people could possibly care about me in this world.

I signed up on this site because i was hoping, and wishing, someone cound (and would) help me. the one thing i didn't expect was that there are so many...someoneS...so i would like to thank each and every one of you, and say "i love you all!"

Now im going to get to hte second point of my post...something i have onliny realised in the past few days.

I have gone through so much in the past years of my life. note: "past". i have messed up in so many ways, and i allowed it to bring me down further. i started blmaing other people for my problems, and i finally realised how selfish iw as being. i have sinned so many times i believed i could not be forgiven. i lied, i stole, i cheated my way through life and happiness.

I did the drugs, show'd disrespect to those around me among many other things. i always believed nobody was there for me. but i was incredibly wrong. they were there for me all along. i just couldn't see it. now i do.

i've finally realised different people have been there for me in different ways. some to lecture, and some to give support and encouragement. and others in ways i couldn't imagine.

This morning i woke up and felt like a new person. i don't know what happened. but one thing i do believe is that my one true father helped me. he guided me through life and taught me right from wrong, by allowing me to make my own mistakes. i believe he knew it would one day lead me to him. nobodies perfect on this earth, and he has shown me that we aren't we are today without our past experiences, mistakes and problems. Everyone deserves a second chance, and a third, and so on. with god you get all the chances you need and want. its never to late to right a wrong. we just need to be strong for one day, when he believes we are ready and have learnt well he will take us from all this to be with him and all our worries will be gone.

So im going to live my life like my time on earth could end tomorrow. you never know what could happen. start each day as a new day and leave the past in the past.

i hope that everyone else can learn what i have learnt in life. and be happy. all it took me was the light.

also i would just like you all to know im here for any of you wether you just want someone to listen to or to talk to. i won't judge you. and im here.

love always jessie:hug:

I'm so happy for you Jessie...this is awesome...keep having good days...but that doesn't mean that you won't have bad ones...always remember, you are daddy's little girl and he's always right behind you, next to you, or else you are in his arms. Fear night, the light out-shines all the dark.
