• 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.

Thanks for the update. Let Katey know she is in my prayers in a special way! She is one strong lady to have the courage enough to continue to seek help - even though she seems closed in on herself, I pray that God will break through that darkness so she can see the light again.

** TN enjoys an early cup of coffee - cinnamon hazelnut!! Anyone care for a cup?**

Hi beautifuls,
seems like ages since I've dropped in - it's been one hectic week!!! Now, I'm just starting my 12 weeks leave... yay?!? all a bit daunting really...
April, you think Arnold would still be up for that huggle? (my baby neice calls them cuggles - so cute!)... I could really use some 'panda comfort' for a bit... I'm feeling really insecure & stuff for some really stupid reasons... wish I knew how to do this life thing better - especially the friendship part :confused: :cry: :sigh:
Anyway...

Louise - could you give Katey a hug for me next time you see her, please? Tell her I'm proud of her and that I think she's an amazing & beautiful chick!

Tn, mind if I sit with you for a bit? I'll be quiet and you won't even know I'm here...(I think I'll have a peppermint tea ... I find the smell comforting...)

Well, I think in 'real life' I might go & curl up and cry myself to sleep...
Take care, precious princesses!
And remember, 'Someone loves you even when you don't think so don't you know you got Me and Jesus
by your side through the fight you will never be alone on your own you got me and jesus'

just realised that may not be so encouraging, given that I'm :cry: tonight... *shrug*... it still stands tho

Love & prayers always,
lisa

Lisa, Arnold is always up for a huggle.
* Arnold comes over and wraps his arms around Lisa and huggles her for awhile.

I think we all wish that we could do life better. It's hard to live with God at the center when things aren't going right. I hope you 12 weeks off will be lovely. :hug: That sounds like rather a long time but you probably need it. Hmm, you should take up yoga. :angel: (Not like I love yoga, or anything :p)

I hope you slept okay. I wish that Arnold and I could be there in person (and panda) to give you a biiiiig hug. :( Crying to sleep doesn't sound like much fun. *hugs*

:hug: Tn. Is it okay if I join you for that coffee? I'm a bit sleepy and I've got tons of work to do today.

That's my annoyance right now. I've got so much stuff to do, and Sunday is Day 200. I was hoping to have that day off - no homework - so I could actually celebrate. Well, guess what? There isn't going to be any break. I've so much to do, there's no way I can get it all done today.

Louise, tell Katey to stay strong and that April and Arnold are sending hugs!!

How is everyone doing this morning??

/me sits with Tn and Lisa to have some coffee and a chat before getting busy with homework.

Lisa and April - you are more than welcome to join me in the squishy recliners by the fire:p . I need some company today.

Today is day 102 for me! I celebrated by watching Cars last night. I love that movie:clap:. Have you seen it??

April - good luck with your homework! Hopefully it won't take all weekend.

Lisa - Praying for you! I'd have Oliver give you a huggle but, as he's a fish, I don't think it would work:p . But he is swimming all around in his bowl for you - that means he likes you^_^

Have a great day my wonderful friends!!

Hey I was just talking with Kateys cousin and she asked me to let you guys know how Katey is. She isn't doing good at all right now, still not talking to anybody and not eating. She has been drinking a little though. She has also been crying all last night

Ugh. Ugh. Ugh ugh ugh ugh UGH.

I got a lot of homework done today, but my brain is a vegetable again.

I need to just disappear. Poof. No more April.

Arnold sends everyone hugs. But he's feeling UGH tonight too. Seems like it's contagious.

/me curls up in the darkest corner and tries not to think.

Prayer sent for Sophie, Bec. :hug:

Lisa :hug: I'm glad that you're doing better. Sleep *usually* helps some. And Arnold appreciates the bamboo muffins! He says that they're the best he's ever had. :yum:

I don't know ... April just needs to disappear. She's ... just yucky. She takes takes takes and never gives back to others. She's always indebted to others and she can never give back what support and love and care that she's received. And she really doesn't want to be an emotional vacuum.

Oh well.

That's not the April I know...do you have a twin sister I haven't met? The April I know tends to give give give and never take anything in return...which can leave even the best of people very drained :hug:.

What's going on sis?

Kate, we do care. What's happening?


Bec, I'll be praying for Sophie.


Lindz...I accidentally deleted my first page of PMs from my inbox :doh:. It means I lost yours before I got to read it, but I hope you're doing well my friend :hug:.


TN, Lisa, it's great to see you both around here :wave:.

Morning all!:wave:

April - sending out tons of prayers for you. You are worth it and I most certainly don't want you to "disappear". You are way too much a part of my life to lose you now:hug:

Lindz, Bec and Steffi - :groupray: It's nice to be back on CF again. I am renewing my membership to the coffee club! Hope you don't mind me hanging out here more often.

Steffi - I am so glad to see you again. How is Germany treating you?

**TN snuggles down in a recliner by the fire to drink some chai tea. Anyone care to join me? No thinking or talking required, I'm okay with just being with my sisters!**

We don't mind you hanging out at all TN :D. Germany's great...my grandparents drive me a little crazy at the best of times, but it's so good to be able to see all of my friends again. I forget how much I miss them when I'm gone. As it is though, I'm looking at getting my German citizenship made official now that I'm 18 and I might eventually move here...now I just need to somehow figure out how to tell Mum :o.
