• 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.

This is actually one of my friend's FaceBook status from a few days ago.

Don't EVER allow Cutting or Suicide to become an an option. You're worth far more than that. There is rest, and peace for you; and it comes from the one who already took that punishment for you. Be free, today.
For those of you who do have that problem trust me I STILL get urges and it has been 2.5 years since I last relapsed. Do NOT freak out or get down on yourself (I KNOW it is hard I have fought this beast for over six years. Instead pick yourself up and repeat this status over and over again (verbally if you have to) and know that relapsing does NOT make you a bad person.

by the way he DID give me permission to post this.
