• 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.

Ella! Thanks for being strong enough to share your life with us. I am so glad you were able to get away from your pimp and get out of the industry. I can relate in many ways to what you wrote.

I am so happy you found a good man to marry and that you have allowed God in your life!

Please feel at home here. :hug:

I'm so sorry, sweetie, that sounds very tough to deal with.
I can't really tell you what to do, other than make sure that he knows you won't accept that, and keep praying that God speaks to him in some way.
God is faithful, sweetie... praying for both of you.

And, I understand why you would choose that name for yourself, but you are *not* a failure, sweetie, please don't think of yourself that way. God loves you very, very much, and He will get you through... even when things seem hopeless. :hug:

Hi! My name is Courtney and I was once in a similar situation. The guy I was with was having sex with many women ...it's a long story, but I relate to what you wrote. I would highly recommend getting out of that relationship as soon as possible. You aren't going to change him honey. God can change him, but I wouldn't take him back until that actually happened if it happens at all. You are just setting yourself up for problems if you stay.

It's great that you've come closer to God, though a pity it is through such pain and confusion... but I think that is when many of us seek Him!
Can you tell this man that you want to be his friend and help him, but that you can't support what he's doing or be in a relationship with him whilst he continues this lifestyle?
I'm praying that God will guide you very clearly, sweetie. :hug:

I heard two stories from Will Hart and Randy Clark in a conference a couple of weeks back.

Will is full of the Holy Spirit and operates in gifts of knowledge, and can lay on hands to give the Spirit away, also he loves lost people, so he goes to the most challenging places where grace is strongest. He went to a town in Asia set up for the sex industry, one meet was with a transvestite, God gave him some words that moved that man's heart.

Randy was given a word for a prostitute, it surprised her a lot so she came from the audience loud spoken, "how did you know?"

She lost her father young, was pack raped at 12, and went into prostitution at a young age, fell pregnant.

She went to church, but on the way out from the toilet overheard the women asking what there church was coming to with her in it, and left.

But now with more children, she was moved by Randy's gift and other prayers to come to Jesus.

Your testimony could help others, especially as you know inner healings and peace, and know you are sanctified... things they will want, and can have too. Your husband also.

Are you one to let the past go and seek for a simple future, or consider things and want healings and restorations?

You have Jesus' blood and it's power for spirit, soul and body. For all you lost to be given back.
