• 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 hate feeling these things I just feel so ashamed and worthless I dont know how to fully trust God I dont know how to feel any different then the way I feel I dont feel any hope I just feel like my life is dead.


I really want to be happy I really want to want God I really want to trust God but im so confused right now I cant tell the difference from up and down:confused: there is so much more but Ill have to talk about it on a pm or something because i dont feel comfortable writing it here I really need someone to talk to so I can get somethings off my chest and some advise and opinons:cry::help:

Well, you have accomplised somethen ya know. Your still here.

Believe me that is alot, I consider ending it daily and probley one day will end up doing that.

But for now im still trucking. but ya goodluck might want to check yourself in a mental hospital and if you already have many times do it agian. new treatments are discovered daily

and if you dont want to goto the same hospital and its bad, goto the emergency room and tell them you wont goto that one, and they will ambulance you to a diffrent location or state.

iv been in over 15 in my life

The best advice I can give you is don't seek advice on the Internet. Find a real friend in the meat world and talk talk talk. Good luck and cheer up!

The best advice I can give you is to find a friend. Where that person, or people are at is irrelevant. Personal experience here, I can be more open and trustful to people I meet online, especially CF. There are two people here who mean the world to me and have helped me so much.

Look, you are a beautiful young woman who probably doesnt deserve any of the bad cards that youve been dealt. It's a miracle that you are willing to talk about this depression and I just hope you will continue to talk to us about it.

Never give up. Keep praying, keep finding friends, keep talking. I'm here for you sweetie!

Typical lies of Satan. Don't believe them! God loves you. He sent his son to die for you. We are all sinners and don't deserve his grace. Just go down the ten commandments. Every one of us has broken at least 4 of the 10 commandments at some point. But his love with us is too strong to give victory to the devil. God may not give you what you want but he surely will provide you with what you need. Remember God doesn't condemn only Satan does. God called you specifically to have a blessed live and eternal life despite the sins you've commited which were washed away by the blood of Jesus Christ. You must be worth something in God eyes.

i just dont feel good enough

Baby030306, do you mean "good enough" for God? I don't feel good enough for God most of the time. The fact is, though, no one is "good enough" for God-- that is why Jesus came to die in the place of sinners who could never be "good enough for God." We have all fallen short of God's perfect standard, but God sent Jesus to live the perfect life that sinners could never live and to suffer the punishment that sinners should have had to suffer. Any person who repents of sin and trusts in Christ as Lord of his life and Savior from his sin has the righteousness of Christ accounted to him by God. Not that we don't sin anymore, but Christ has saved us from the eternal penalty for our sins. When God looks at a believer, he sees the righteousness of Christ first, and the believer's sin, second. We still need to confess our sins when we commit them and repent (turn away from them and turn toward God). We will never perfectly repent of all of our sins in this lifetime, but that is why we need Christ's righteousness to cover our sins. When we trust in Christ's sacrifice for sins, the fear of never being "good enough" for God is not nearly as strong. We don't have to be "good enough" for God, because Christ has already been perfect in our place! :) Now, we definitely should obey God (which the Holy Spirit empowers us to do), and as Christians, we want to obey Him, out of love and gratititude. We don't have to drive ourselves into despair with worries of never being "good enough" though.
