• 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

  • The rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

Work work and more work.

Unless I give up which I won't I am determined to beat this beast to a bloody pulp. I'm sick and tired of turning the other way and running. Because Xanax doesn't do anything. Thats expected. Ofcoarse I should know that. But this stupid fear that says well maybe your not doing the exposure right and in turn prevents me to get a grip on myself. I guess thats just all the healing and expected of me to think that way cos OCD will try to latch onto anything that will cause you to stumble. I'm going to relax. To long of a day and just plane old sick of OCD.

Hey Dabro, I've seen you for quite a while now here on this part of this website. I just want to know, what are you doing to yourself when you type these threads? Are these type of things anything assuring to you? I just ask you this because there are certain things that will continually make the OCD worse, and one of them is seeking reassurance, either from trying to prove something that OCD has brought or by seeking people's advice and concerns. We(including me) care what you are doing in your life Dabro, even if we don't know each other we are still brothers (and sisters) through Christ. I just want to know.

Have you considered writing a journal to keep all your thoughts in tact, or a blog? Doing this is really helpful.

I'm sorry if I offend you in any way, I'm just here to help.
