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.

Thankyou all. I am very concerned about posting because things have gone from bad to worse, and I cannot measure up to all your faith. LittlH thankyou so much for what you have said - and yes,, the ONE THING ABOVE ALL that I wanted was to have people come and pray with me. NO-ONE WILL COME. Bob, my husband, has contacted the priest this evening to tell him how bad things were, but he would not come. We have tried all around the town ( a small town really) and no-one will come. I do not really want to say this but I am seriously suicidal and I am sorry if that offends anyone. I am scared stiff of this. The priest was told of this but he still would not come.
I cannot hold on any more - I have lost all of my strength. It needs a miracle to save me, and I do not have a lot of faith. I know that no human being can save me - only God can. I am having very real problems with faith. I am sorry.
I believe that if a priest or someone else could have come to pray with me, I may well have gottten over this to some extent. It was not to be.
We did go to my brother's this afternoon but it was disastrous. I came away in tears.
I am sorry to all of you that I cannot be good. I am sorry that I cannot measure up. There are so many thoughts going though my head - all about death and dying. The specialist told me that I could die and I cannot get that out of my head. He told me it more than once.
I am so sorry everyone. Please forgive me.
