autonomous sensory meridian response.. any thoughts about or experiences with this sensation?.

Thanks for responding Amelia, I have experienced this sensation since childhood and only recently found out it was an actual thing. Though from what I understand not everyone experiences it. I have read that it can help with insomnia and as I don't like taking sleep meds I was interested in hearing if anyone has found it to be useful for that.

Zeb - ASMR is a particular sensation felt as a pleasant tingling feeling usually on the scalp or shoulders, it is very relaxing and can be triggered by certain sounds or activities. If you have ever experienced this you would recognize the description immediately.

Maybe Bethel workers can be happy because they live rent free, have their meals provided, their laundry done for them, and they get the celebrity treatment in their congregation.

Hey Julia, there is a Cult Counseling Centre in Melbourne. The guy who runs it is Raphael Aron. I don't know what services they offer, but you can google them to find out more.

over the years, i knew some individuals that were pretty bad witnesses.

they broke more commandments that most.

sparrowdown

Hell yeah, I have known many horrible witnesses. Backstabbing, lying, assholes. The living examples of the often quoted scripture in 2 Tim - in particular ".....having no natural affection...."
