• 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.

  • Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

Good question...I don't really know. My OCD is really out of control in the afternoon since I started on this seroquel. I feel I don't know who I am anymore. Guess I'll have to learn all over again. The Lord's taken me back to when I started to self-medicate at age 14 or so so he can really heal me now. I just quit getting high and drinking back in 2002. Became a christian in '01. I'm kinda rambling huh? Sorry, I'm really tired. I really do have some intelligent thread ideas, but I need to do it later when i'm not so tired. Thanks for letting me vent here. Sometimes in the afternoon I get angry or depressed or manic. I've got an appt on the 1st and 2nd. Maybe they'll tinker with my meds. I'm recently diagnosed. Anywho...later

I Am bipolar and the last time I went to my pdoc he tried to tell me that I am ocd also, I don't believe I am. But, Maybe you can tell me a little bit about it?
As for seroquel, I have been on it for 2 yrs. I just got off it because I just found out that it contains a whole lot of sugar and cholesterol. This kind of stuff runs in my family so I had to start on abilify.
Also Seroquel puts WEIGHT on you!!!
Can you please let me know about ocd?
Thanks and GOD BLESS!!!

wow-lots to tell about ocd...do you do something and then question wether or not you did it or did it correctly? I sometimes swallow nothing at all-like when you just swallow saliva-until the point of choking because I haven't done it "right " yet. Or I fidget my fingers until I do it in the right pattern. or count-just as a calming reflex. also people get other effects-won't talk to strangers, excessive handwashing, etc. It's a huge topic
