• 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 am so sorry. My heart aches for you. I had an intimate friend who I always had to agree with or else I would get emotionally blackmailed. Finally, she agreed to get out of my life. I felt so free afterward.

My daughter has a boyfriend who threatened to commit suicide the last time she wanted to break up with him. He called her and told her he took some pills. She was crying so loud she woke me up (3 AM) I had to call Emergency.

Also, I was molested as a child. It stole my innocence, and made me feel degraded and dirty. It took a long time and hard work for me to heal, and it was only by the grace of God.

I feel that my experiences help me understand what you are trying to say about how you feel. You have been deeply violated. You need a counselor who specializes in sexual abuse cases to help you walk through the healing process.

The good news is: God can fix you. God is the only one who can heal your broken heart.

1- face the pain you suffered- cry about it, get angry about it, express all your feelings about it to God

2- grieve what you lost- go through the grieving process

3- When you have fully gone through the grieving process, you will be able to fully forgive everyone who has hurt you. You can do this because God has forgiven you (Matthew 18:22-35) Forgiveness is the key to being set free.

Lean on God each step of the way. That is what He wants from you.

Father God, I pray for this tender broken one who has come here for help. I pray Father that You would carry her through to the places she needs to go for healing. I pray that You would keep her out of bad relationships in the meantime, and that You would provide a safe place for her to heal. I pray that You would lead her to the counselor who can help her the most and the best. I pray that You would heal this young woman and deliver her from the destruction that has been poured out into her life. I pray that You would make Yourself real to her, and that You would cause her to trust in You and You alone for her healing.

Dear Sweet Jesus, I pray that You would give this precious one a glimpse of Your Unconditional Love for her, that You would set her feet upon a good foundation and cause her to grow in Your light.
