• 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

I want to say thanks to all that have commented on my posts and for their prayers. There is to much going on in my life right now I can't fight it, it is all falling so hard. I need and want my comfort, my close friend, and my quick fix. (Ana) I can't deal I want to be numb. I am already alone. This will be the complete package. This is what I was ment to be. I will accept it.

Please dont give up, sweetie. You dont have to fight it on your own. Jesus is right there beside you, ready to take all your trouble on His shoulders. Give it to Him. Focus on living each minute, each hour for Him. He doesnt want to see you hurting anymore, and Hes there to help you when things get too rough for you to handle. Ana isnt going to really help you. You dont want to go back to her ... you may feel that you do, you may want the feelings that she invokes, but you know the other stuff that comes along with the "good" feelings of hunger. I dont want that for you.

You arent alone. God is always there and He loves you SO much. And we are all here for you, hun. Im here if you EVER need anything. Weve all been through somewhat the same stuff, and we are all fighting the same thoughts. Dont let the Devil whup you this time. Youre stronger than you think. Persevere and God will reward you. Its hard, it might not feel worth it, but go on by faith.

Praying for you. If you need someone to talk to, someone to pray with, or if you just need a cyber hug, Im always here. Dont hesitate to PM or email me, ok? :hug::hug:

What I hear you saying is that you would rather have your eating disorder and use that instead of having Jesus. It may sound harsh, but that is in reality what you are doing. Our eating disorders are idols that displace our Lord from the throne of our lives. When I choose to binge instead of turning to Him, I am rejecting Him and His Holy Spirit Power to see me through the crap that life throws at me.

Whether you give up entirely or not, the Lord still loves you, and so do I. I would rather see you fight it one day at a time, with good days and bad days, than just give up and quit altogether.

Walking with Jesus is spiritual warfare. Equipping ourselves daily is our responsibility to do on a daily basis. Sometimes we will lose the battle, but we will never lose the war, because it has already been won by our Jesus.

Hang in there for today. Don't give up. Jesus is worth our obedience in this area.
