• 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.

First, I have been reading your posts. Yes, your choices have led you to where you are now.

I recognize that you are trying to stop making the kind of choices that got you here in the first place. I recognize that you are standing in the flowing river of hardship trying to get a foothold. I recognize you have honored your mother, and she abuses you. I recognize that you are desperate to hold on to goodness and righteousness and not make any more bad decisions.

From what I have read you must keep that job. Keep working, build your skills, constantly. Keep searching for better jobs with better pay, while you are still employed.

You must NOT move in with the biological father of your children. The moment he is completely healed from his injury he will again mistreat you. He is not the one for you. You do not want to walk away from all the time and energy you have spent on him. Do it anyway. Free yourself from the misguided belief that you must stay because of all the time you have invested.

You must move out of your mother's dwelling. Her temptation to abuse you each and every time you are present is too great for her. You will be honoring her by taking that temptation away from her. Move out of her house.

This suggestion will be loathsome to you. You have no real Godly friends and no other choices. Seek your local woman's shelter. It is temporary.

You have no brick and mortar church connections and have been going to online church. I think it is wonderful that you seek Christ living in the turmoil that you are stuck in day to day. Get your two babies in a safe shelter, and keep that job steady. Then go church shopping. It is time you get a church community in real life.

...and for goodness sake stay away from quick loans or any other type of loan!

Transportation is difficult for you. I hope your local city bus system is adequate for your needs. It is hard, but use it. You can do this. It is awful. It is hard. You have to begin somewhere to break clean and build the good life meant for you. You can do this!

You should consider removing this post, Matt. It's not helpful to this young lady. Thanks!

Thanks for pointing out my mistake. I forgot this is the support forum. My post is gone but your quote of my post is still there.

Im trying to fix everything. I take FULL accountability for my actions. I didnt choose the easy way out which is why mt kids are still here.

Also good news my coworker lent me the money to pay my insurance and i will gladly pay her back.

Im still praying God will help me get away from my parents and get on my own even if its a hotel.
