• 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.

WOW! Powerful video she put together. I really like the band that does the music for it. There name is Sixx AM. It's a side project of Nikki Sixx's. They have a really positive message about recovery from addiction. I listen to them a lot when I am struggling with my addictions.

Yeah Liz it is a powerful video! I like Sixx AM too!

This video makes me stop and think....I must be doing something right because I am still alive after all I've been through and more importantly God is protecting me! I tend to really get down on myself a lot for the stuff I've done and I have to remember that just being alive is a strength!

True that Court. I feel like such a mess up half the time (Former drug addict/drinker, current stripper, stopped utilizing my talents IE.) it's easy to get wrapped up in our short comings I really know that. There is stuff I hate about myself and stuff I love. One of them being my knack for surviving. I've always felt there is some sort of plan to my life because of that.
