• 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

Got a call from my sister to stop by and visit for the day, lovely surprise, got my sister fix.

Showed them some die cutting, (butterflies) to make cards and emboss with glitter.

I dont feel any contempt toward myself regarding depression and anxiety, a good day that I am greatful for.

yesterday: 5 hours of phone conversation, a good dinner with the family, and chocolate and chic flicks (which I normally am not that into, but I couldn't walk much and was on pain medicine so I was glad for the entertainment)

I did some gently neck exercises and feel optimistic about it.

I made a delicious basil pesto with chunky cashews and it is so good on crackers.

I am going to do cardio when my husband gets out of bed, the treadmill is in the bedroom.

I am encouraging my daughter everyday to be more confidant at school.

1. Watched my boys play AFL and my older sons game was a real heart pounder with one point in it! Great game to watch!
2. Went for a really good long walk this afternoon
3. Took my youngest son off to spend his birthday money and he was happy with his DS game. :)
