Essential The Mental Health Thread

[Hope]

Erased all lgbt and lgbt friendly people out of my phone, and no longer allowing any jesus lovers in my life. If you Christian cool, just don't ever preach. Jesus will never be my lord. Including family. Tired!

god of my fukkin understanding.

no mroe exconvicts allowed in my lfie either. Stay at a distance.

Trying to become less inwardly focused. I didn't foresee having this level of anxiety at this point in my life. Everything is going great externally

if you suffer from any of the things mentioned on this thread, conversing and wallowing with other losers isn't gonna help. Log off and go outside

Lolololololololol!@@

Remember there is nothing good or bad about events/circumstances/LIFE, it's your judgements about such events that stirs things up. The present moment is perfect, because it's reality. Practicing that everything is sacred/holy is a very freeing experience, nothing being more important than anything else, your judgement is what creates that.

This technique has given me so much insight and freedom:

I wish folks in this thread could see my life right now, they'd be like, "damn, my life is awesome!" Lol.

For real. I feel better when I drink alcohol, but the Bible tell me not to.

I'm already working on lusting and having the tongue of a fool.

Very frustrating, but I have to trust in him. I'm too scared to break my promise. It drives me insane thinking about the repercussions after I drink or have lustful thoughts.

Is there a reason we don't have a mental health forum on here?

 

[humble Hermit]

I don't know how popular that would be but I have plenty of references if needed

 

[Antiquity]

I think it would be a good addition and a way for people to let out their feelings. You'd be amazed how many people suffer from anxiety, personality disorders, or are enduring an existential crisis.

 

[LevelUp]

To all the people in this thread.

Love.

 

[BigMan]

It would have to be anonymous

 

[CEITEDMOFO]

i agree with @Dip it has to be anonymous.

these clowns on here will try use it as a way of "ethering" someone.

Well I will be the first black man to tell you to seek therapy if you need it.

Too many black men hold a lot of things in because we have nobody to talk to who won't over-analyze, over-study, marginalize a black man's opinion....and these things will overwhelm. We don't seek mental help because seriously....nobody understands black people and even within the black race black men are seriously on their own.

I was there once going through a separation, finding the RIGHT woman after that and then she passed away while on the phone with me in a car wreck, while living in Oregon working a frustrating job...I was having anxiety I never had before BUT it changed when I was able to see a therapist and simply talk...

Everything passed after that and I moved on...but if it wasn't for therapy I would have hurt someone or myself out of anger.

I know this doesn't have shyt to do with the OP but I just wanted to share and support other black men. Perhaps this thread would be just the right place for black men to share information on good therapists or even sharing some of their struggles that mature black men on this site can weigh in on.

I know it's a longshot but black men need to rely on black men because honestly....NOBODY understands us or will even try to..

To be honest I dont trust the whole process in this country. Feel likeI would go into one of these places with a "problem" and leave a sedated crash dummy.

I support the creation of the sub forum and if it could be made anon it would be even better
