• 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.

PLEASE read this all, I am scared out of my mind and I need advice.
I think God wants me to run away, and i am scared VERY SCARED. :(
See there is a new tenant that JUST moved here several days ago and he is one of those liar types (cheesy salesman type), he even admitted to it in his own way (please keep reading). I had a bad feeling about him when I met him , people have said that I have a gift of knowing when people are bad and good that i am usually right on about that.
Well this new tenant knows about how my best friend and I have to share a room cause of expenses next month. At first he was worried about the idea of 4 people sharing one bathroom but then he said he would find a way to work around it.
So tonight he told the landlord that there is no way in hell that he was going to share one bathroom with 3 other people that either the landlord keeps it at 3 people to one bathroom OR he moves out. He said cause he was from NJ and NYC area he knows how to lie to get people to believe HIM, yes he said that. :(
Knowing the landlord and her history with other new tenants she (the landlord) will throw both me and my best friend out, she threaten that on us before and she is already VERY UPSET about the idea of my best friend and I sharing one room to cut expenses. I tried to be honest and upfront with this guy and told him she had a history of threatening us to throw us out cause of it.
Well, he asked why I could not work, and I told him that I am disabled with a crippling panic disorder, he asked if I was collecting social security income and I said I got denied. And I told him how my mom doesn't want anything to do with me either, he shrugged his shoulders like OH WELL. He then ask is there ANY WAY I could work. I said the only condition that doesn't cause panic disorder with working is if I could work with just one other person that I KNOW well and get a long with, that way I could not deal with catty work behavior (being left out), which causes severe panic issues and I quit the job. SO he then said "WELL what the hell are you going to do if your best friend should drop dead, how will you live then??"
I said "EXCUSE ME???" I was so blown away that he had the nerve to ask me that after only knowing me for a few days
He DEMANDED me to answer the question. I said that it was none of his business.
Then he said "YOU KNOW WHAT, FORGET YOU!" and then he stormed off.
SO I have been SO PANICKY about this issue I don't know what this crazy guy has up his sleeve he sounds like a con artist and GOD ONLY KNOWS what he will do to me. I am SO SCARED to death, I even got sick cause of it :( :( :(
SO the ONLY solution to all of this is that I have to run away, things have been so bad since the car accident. I dont work and i got denied of Social Security Income and I KNOW the Landlord will take his side ESPECIALLY after he said he is a WONDERFUL liar and he can get ANYONE to believe him being that he is from NJ/NYC area (what ever that means).
AT THIS POINT, I just want my best friend to not have to take care of me cause look at what it has caused, her family no longer speaks to her cause she will not dump me off (YES they said that) so she can move home, then the landlord has to pick between my best friend and I or this liar.
What other solution is there at this point other than leaving, I don't work and SOME people are making me feel HORRIBLE for my best friend working while I stay home, Maybe I don't deserve the roof over my head. I guess I am just a HORRIBLE person for not working even my mom doesn't understand why I don't work, if i can't pay for rent or have no family then I should be with Jesus right? NO I am not talking about suicide I am talking about leaving for the woods, I don't know what else to do at this point :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

I agree with WB and I don't think the landlady will throw you out. I really wish you'd stop talking about running away as that is definitely NOT what God wants. God would not want you to do anything that would put you in any danger and running away would definitely put you in danger. Above all PLEASE stop putting yourself down all the time. You are NOT a horrible person and you DO deserve a roof over your head. You really need to stop listening to Satan's lies as it hurts me (and I'm sure it hurts all the people who care about you) to hear you saying these things about yourself. You can choose to listen to what God says about you in His Word as well as what your friends say about you or else you can choose to believe the lies that Satan and the mean people in the world say about you. Btw did you ever read that book that your friend bought you a few months ago? I think that may well help you somewhat while you wait for counselling. In the meanwhile I am praying for you and remember there are a lot of people who love you including me.:pray::pray::pray::pray::hug::hug::hug::hug:

Dear Flower, don't worry about this guy, he won't harm you. You don't have to answer his questions or justify yourself to anyone, just live as you normally would and try not to worry as fear has the tendency to make the situation worse that it really is. I agree with Chococat that you should have a quiet talk with the landlady.

You have many good friends that stand by your side that love & care about you. You will be alright dear Flower. I am praying for you!

Victor.

Flower fear cannot be trusted to tell the truth, but can be trusted to freak the hell out of us if we believe the lies that it all sprouts.

Please focus your prayer on God's truth, He has been keeping you safe, put your trust in Him.

keep praying this for His truth to tell you your safe and you can calm down a bit.

What can I say that has not been said by these kind, faithful brothers and sisters? Oh flower, it feels so bad to hear about all the stress and worry you're going through. Please don't call yourself horrible.

I'm very sorry you are feeling so bad and lost. I think that guy is full of it, just ignore him. He can't do anything to you. God is on your side and will bring you through all of this. I am continueing to pray for you. {{{{{{{big hug}}}}}}

:hug:'s and THANK YOU ALL so much for your encouraging words. My best friend lost her job cause of the accident and we both have been isolating some. Also I have been keeping my distance from that new tenant as MUCH AS POSSIBLE, he seems to lie a lot and so much reminds me of my toxic brother. I now eat in my room when he is off from work which means cookies for breakfast.
On top of it my mother has decided not to send me a Christmas card this year since I don't work, she finds my brother a much better person and he totally is stuck in his "glory days of high school" no joke. Mom always makes excuses for him. My last words to my mother were "you wish I were dead don't you?!?!" and then hung up on her. SHE NEVER called back, maybe I was right about that. :cry:
Thank you SO MUCH for your prayers and KNOW that I have been praying for you all. :hug:'s

Know that I'm still praying for you Flower. You are in a real nasty predicament but God can rescue from your distress. Please keep focussed on Jesus, for looking at people will always result in bad experiences.

Wishing you God's blessing:hug:
