I seem to continue to make the wrong decisions. I feel like I want to talk freely about what is going on with me and I guess even this isn't the right place for me. The problem is my religion is a big part of my life and here that is taboo. So once again I am feeling worse about things rather than better. The only thing I'm sure of is that I am not in a very good place. I feel like I even have guilt over that. The more I try to get it together and stop complaining the more my internal voice is talking to me, confusing me. Shoot!Why won't this stop! I am being driven crazy by my own thoughts. Why can't i just shut up! Still feeling driven to start up some old bad habit that I gave up way too long ago. I feel like I'm holding the door closed with both hands and my whole body for that matter. I don't know how much longer I can deal with this. I'm trying to keep busy and hope I figure out the next step.

Open Window,
What religion do you follow? Sometimes the rules and regulations imposed by religion can make a person feel horrible. I'm a Christian, but tend to follow a relationship with Jesus Christ rather than a religion of sorts. nd, I have experienced both. Feel free to write anything here on this website, sometimes it just helps to write. And while we all have different beliefs, everyone here seems to be accept that diversity.

Open Window
You do not look too open for me if I read your post. heheee
OK Just remember that nobody in this world will know what you write on this thread (unless you tell people)
This IS the perfect place to share your feelings and get it all out. Also you will get other people responding and that will help you grow.
You said your religion is a big part of your life and that this is a problem know.
Please explain. I come from a church that is very straight forward and you talk the talk and walk the walk.
You cannot expect that they should understand, never.
Please open up so that we can shat and share.
It would be really nice to talk to you.

Hi garfield! nice to see you back after having been gone.
I have been meaning to ask you for awhile, are you familiar with Bill Gaither? I am not really, but have seen the South African team on different websites, and the Gaithers were mentioned.
I am hanging in there, thank you for asking. And not to take away from Open Window's thread, just going through a tough time with my oldest son. All else is ok though. Hope you are doing well!

The open window was my escape route that I used time after time as a kid. Why, my mother didn't figure out jumping out a window and running, wouldn't mess a person up I'll never understand. I know that her fear kept her from changing our lives. Anyway now that all of my ties to that old life are dead I maybe figured the open window could turn into a better place for me. God knows I need an escape from whatever is messing me up at the moment.

Putting Christ in the center of your life is best thing you can ever do. It enlarges your perspective and helps you reach out to others.
Understanding your relationship with Him gives you immeasurable self esteem.
Accepting His sacrifice for you helps you overcome your weaknesses.
Believing that He lives means never having to fear death.
What could make life better than that.
Thanks for sharing how you feel.
