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.

Hello, I'm very sorry to hear about the car and meds, may these problems get solved soon as possible, my prayers goes out to you
This is very sad indeed, ultimately every human will hurt us, not because they mean it, just because they're human. You have to give space if your best friend needs that. My prayers goes out for you too. God bless
In hindsight, four pounds isn't that bad! You got knocked back, and all you can do now is get back on your feet and try again.
I can relate to weight lost goals, I did it, I lost over 12 kilos(22 pounds) just to gain the double after a few months, then lost half of that
you have to be strict with yourself so I can see why your friend gave you the strict answer, but don't beat yourself up so much, I usually fluctuated 11 pounds, I am totally serious so don't worry about such a petty number it's OK, just make sure you keep persevering and don't give up! And I'll pray that God helps you in any way he sees fit. God bless.Good luck, I can totally relate to sucking at school due to depression, I'm just above the water with my university, had to repeat 1 year because I failed almost all of the subjects. But if it's something you like, you'll be OK
I really, really hope this works out for you too.I'm very sorry to hear that you can't get over stuff, time is actually healing you, but it takes time, don't expect to easily go over it in a few weeks, sometimes you just have to hang on, so just hang on man, it will get better, I will be praying for you, you're not going trough this alone, God is with you and suffers along, so don't loose heart, just hang on!I feel sad tonight
I am happy to see that you did a step forward away from the unfortunate dangers of politics in china, I will pray that Yeshua will provide help and insight throughout your path, although we both know He does it already
Will also pray for your dad, happy to hear that he's doing better.
Thank you. Tomorrow I will start back on the diet. I have to go shopping. I've been to a dietician and my doctor gave me a good idea of what to eat. I appreciate all you've said. Yes, he was being mean to say that!What a mean friend. I'm sure he meant well, but he has to understand that setbacks happen. Especially in the weight loss area. Have you seen your doctor about it? The crash diets that are popular, I've heard, never really help and are only detrimental, and for diets, you should always talk to your doctor or a nutritionist so they can help you set up a good meal plan that works well for you.
Seems that you are one who has no mercy on the overweight. I could be wrong but from what you said...I can relate to weight lost goals, I did it, I lost over 12 kilos(22 pounds) just to gain the double after a few months, then lost half of that
I have faith that you can make it

Hello, fellow insomniac here too, it's really irritating when you can't sleep or sleep at the wrong time, in the wrong places, my prayer goes out for you two, may God help you have a normal sleeping schedule.
I think it's a misunderstanding, what I basically meant was that you shouldn't care that your weight fluctuates a little (4 pounds) as long as you continue with your diet, now as far as I know (I may be wrong but) a diet also includes the days that you are eating what you want.
