• 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

[FONT=&quot]I just don't know why, but recently my emotions have taken a turn for the worse. I am stressed-out 24-7! Boredom brings stress, being around people brings stress, being alone brings stress, trying to go to bed brings stress, trying to relax brings stress, , watching television brings stress,...I get stress from everything! I feel a constant pressure on me, a pressure that tugs on me and won't let me go! I don't know how, I don't know why, but I do know this: there must be a reason I have all this stress, and there must be a way to get rid of it. This stress is humming my head I cant bare this any more. Things are getting worst and worst. Help me please [/FONT]

Hello, I can relate to you here. I felt like this a few months ago- everything possible...just thinking in general...would stress me out. It took me a few months of really cutting down my schedule to allow me lots of time to relax and rest, and eat right. It turned out from all the stress I had "tired" my immune system which made me feel worse, and fatigued, with the inability to "calm down". I know it may be hard to relax but do your best to try to clear your mind of all its distractions. Take everything moment by moment- don't think about the future or past more than you need to.
I also read the Bible a lot, that was a major help. My emotions always calm down when I do so.

I 'm having the same I wake up nauseous and jittery mind cant stay focused. -but I'm determined to beat this thing and its hard, but accepting it and letting it flow is good advice.They say if you try you cant make it worse and it will eventually go away. Been having this cycle since started to wean off meds but it does get better -sometimes not as quick as you like. Its not always true that accepting the in the way they are, they some times even make u holler and may made you harm your self. I am presently using Theramood product and it has given me some relaxation. I am happy now that I am using this product. good luck and God bless struggle and just floating for a while?
