• 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.

Three weeks ago at almost this very moment my daddy went home to be with Jesus. It was completely unexpected. I just keep wishing that I had gotten the chance to say see you later before he went. I do not believe in saying goodbye, because I know I will see him again. I cry daily. We were so close and now my buddy is gone. I was in a bad auto accident a year ago and suffer from a brain injury and have lots of memory and comprehension problems. My dad helped with that, when my husband was at work my dad would be here with me and my 4 yo little girl (Lily). Now he is gone and the days are lonely and I still forget to eat sometimes, or to feed Lily before she starts getting grumpy for food. I know that God is in control and I know that He has a plan. I just feel a little lost at times. I hope all my rambling makes sense. It feels good to have a place to come and let it out.

Vanessao,

I pray that you find comfort and peace at this time. God bless you.


John 14:33-34
33. “My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.

34. “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”


John 14: 1-4, 27
1. Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

4. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

27. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you asthe world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Hi Vanessa,

I'm happy to hear you're coming here to share your thoughts. I think that's one of the things most people forget to do after losing their loved ones. My deepest condolences for your loss.

When my brother passed away, I wanted to make sure I wouldn't forget any of my memories of him, so I created an online memorial for him. You should make one for your dad.

Warm regards,
Fleming
