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.

Everything begins with "E"
perhaps it would be a good idea to see a school counsellor... you may think you don't need to but hey... it won't hurt... and perhaps you can get something out of it

whenever I feal depressed I pray for my lost friends who have not yet found christ. It helps because its a way of getting your fealings put and telling someone about your problems. Sometimes when i pray I get into a hyper bol mode and talk really really fast. At first i thought it was God putting me on fast forward so he could get to someone else but Its not lol. Its an awesome and uplifting fealing to pray for others and when you swing down a good ol fashion prayer helps to swing you back up. Not for yourself mind you but for the people around you because in fact they control your mode more then you may realise.
I also like to sit in the dark night and look at the stars ... its so peaceful ... but thats more for calming down ...
here is one last idea that may help you. When your not depressed write a large list of all the good or fun experiances you have had or God has done for you. Or a teacher of mine has made up his own book of encourageing experiences. Whenever you get down read it and it will lift you up

You might have a chemical imbalance in your body. Sometimes, after or during puberty, your chemicals get out of wack. They might return to normal once puberty is over, or they might be like that forever.

Life's just like that.....
It might be a number of reasons...but for your own sanity, don't dismiss anything until you find the cause. It could be anything, feeling out of control of your life, feeling like you're overwhelmed, take Endearing's advice and try to find the reason why. :hugs:

you might want to tell your parents how you feel, so they can take you to a dr to help you. here is symptoms.
You feel miserable and sad.
You feel exhausted a lot of the time with no energy .
You feel as if even the smallest tasks are sometimes impossible.
You seldom enjoy the things that you used to enjoy-you may be off sex or food or may 'comfort eat' to excess.
You feel very anxious sometimes.
You don't want to see people or are scared to be left alone. Social activity may feel hard or impossible.
You find it difficult to think clearly.
You feel like a failure and/or feel guilty a lot of the time.
You feel a burden to others.
You sometimes feel that life isn't worth living.
You can see no future. There is a loss of hope. You feel all you've ever done is make mistakes and that's all that you ever will do.
You feel irritable or angry more than usual.
You feel you have no confidence.
You spend a lot of time thinking about what has gone wrong, what will go wrong or what is wrong about yourself as a person. You may also feel guilty sometimes about being critical of others (or even thinking critically about them).
You feel that life is unfair.
You have difficulty sleeping or wake up very early in the morning and can't sleep again. You seem to dream all night long and sometimes have disturbing dreams.
You feel that life has/is 'passing you by.'
You may have physical aches and pains which appear to have no physical cause, such as back pain.
It's this wealth of depression symptoms, and the broad scope that confuses many people as to what depression actually is. Explanations rarely cover all the symptoms, and everybody's experience is different.

When ever I feel depressed, I pray to the Lord and ask Him for strength and comfort. I also talk to my parents and they would comfort me too. It is good to talk to someone and not bottle up your feelings. A good start to solve depression is think positive and when a negative thought comes in mind rebute it.
