Welcome to Christian Forums , a forum to discuss Christianity in a friendly surrounding . Your voice is missing ! You will need to register to be able to join in fellowship with Christians all over the world . We hope to see you as a part of our community soon and God Bless ! 2 . 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 . Kristen . NewCreation and FreeinChrist 3 . The forums in the Christian Congregations category are now open only to Christian members . Please review our current Faith Groups list for information on which faith groups are considered to be Christian faiths . Christian members please remember to read the Statement of Purpose threads for each forum within Christian Congregations before posting in the forum . 4 . Please note there is a new rule regarding the posting of videos . It reads , " Post a summary of the videos you post . An exception can be made for music videos . " . Unless you are simply sharing music , please post a summary , or the gist , of the video you wish to share . 5 . There have been some changes in the Life Stages section involving the following forums : Roaring 20s , Terrific Thirties , Fabulous Forties , and Golden Eagles . They are changed to Gen Z , Millennials , Gen X , and Golden Eagles will have a slight change . 6 . CF Staff , Angels and Ambassadors ; ask that you join us in praying for the world in this difficult time , asking our Holy Father to stop the spread of the virus , and for healing of all affected . 7 . We are no longer allowing posts or threads that deny the existence of Covid - 19 . Members have lost loved ones to this virus and are grieving .

They really don ' t call them that anymore but basically it is when you just can ' t cope anymore . Anxiety , depression , you name it can be involved as the underlying factors . Time to see a doc for sure . It can become so bad that you can ' t do anything at all , don ' t wait for it to get that bad . See your family doctor first and he will send you to someone who can diagnose your symptoms and help you . Blessing and sunshine to you my friend ! Zippy + Like Like x 2 + List Nov 19 , 2015 3 .

Click to expand ... Not so much when they first started , but as it progresses , there is no mistaking it . Horrible feeling of helplessness . In some folks it is a chemical imbalance or nuerlogical misfire of some sort , not sure . And you do strange things or at least I did . I always felt a need to hide . Very strange . I am probably saying too much , but I feel for you . What symptoms are you having , if you don ' t mind my asking ? Nov 19 , 2015 5 .

After my father died I had a panic attack so bad I thought I was having a heart attack . I had one like that again years later when teaching library classes . They called ambulance ; nurse thought I was having heart attack . Panic attacks can be that severe . Only good thing about that was I had an angiogram done and turns out I have the heart ' of a 15 year old girl ' Yippe ! That is good to know . But now when I feel one coming on I take meds so it doesn ' t get to that point . Doesn ' t happen very often . Try to slow down your breathing sometimes helps . Nov 22 , 2015 11 .

Thank you for explaining your feelings :) Click to expand ... One thing that you said really caught my attention , being overwhelmed by little things . I think that is a key sign . Also , if you have attempted suicide in the last year , that is also a big problem . Do you have health insurance that you could see a professional ? It does help because when you are overwhelmed by little things , it ' s hard to judge what are the important things vs . what are the little things . I have experienced this myself and it is not good . Do seek some help . God may have guided you to make this post so we can tell you to find help . + Like Like x 1 + List Nov 22 , 2015 13 .
