Hi M.J,
I don't believe you should worry. He is probably only itching the eczema sites. Do you have some cream for the eczema? Cetaphil soap is wonderful too. Also, their no-fragrance lotion. But he might also need a RX. Take care. Juni

29Self Mutilation - In A "Spiritual Paradise"? Awake Feb '06
by metatron ini found this latest article in the awake to be quite remarkable.
while they try to explain cutting yourself as a sickness in the world, it.
nevertheless makes clear that some witness kids are committing this self multilation, too.

Heh Josie,
I'm happy that you found something that brings you joy and community into your life. Your family will be so much better off. They will grow up not with negativity - us versus them mentality - but will have empathy for others and be sympathetic to peoples' faults. Juni~~~~~~~~~~

Heh Mrs. Jones!
How was your Christmas? Yeah. Wasn't that nice not to be bullied or made to be felt like dog poop? I don't go to any church. Tried 2 times. One was a Lutheran church. Went there right after getting the stare down at the Hall. People were really nice and they even had a luncheon that Sunday, but I found it very formalistic and void. Pastor was fakey and unfriendly. Just too many bad vibes from people in charge. And second try was at a non denominational. People were pretty much a clique and pastor was very pushy to win me over. He even came to my work to talk. I didn't need that all over again. I'm sure it's different in other churches or maybe even the same religion. I guess you just have to find what works for you.
Have a good new year and I'll continue posting here along with you. Juni~~~~~~~~~~~~

You're right VanGogh. Litter - ature. This org. is so not with it. DF people who have mental problems. Where is the love that they are so happy to claim?
Hamsterbait - isn't it sad? And this is supposed to be God's org? I don't think so or if it is I don't want to worship a God like that. How the hell did the whole family get DF because of their ill son??? Juni ~~~~~~~~~~

Hi Metratron,
Am familiar with this problem. They always want to paint a rosy picture of the Org. They don't want to own their problem that these things exist within the cong. This has been around for a long time and they are just now recognizing it? Actually, to the psychiatric world of medicine it is referred to as self-abuse. Of course we all know that the Org. gets hung up on anything sexual so always self-abuse equates with masturbation.
They think they are the experts with that WT college degree that comes from reading their lit. They don't want to deal w/reality. Quite a few people suffer from this frustrating condition. Inflicting pain on one's self brings relief from stress and therefor pleasure to the psyche.
Thanks for the info from the mag. as I don't read the stuff anymore. Juni~~~~~~~~~~

Weird day with a bit of a shock
by ballistic inweird day with a bit of a shock.
for some time now my best mate and flat mate has been couging up blood and sweating, and a few other things... anyway, came back from hospital diagnosed with tb (tuberculosis).. for those in other countries, tb is almost illiminated in great britain, and children are routinely immunised (including my flat mate) but there are still 7000 cases a year here.
it has 99% successfull treatment rate and yet worldwide still claims 2 million lives.. anyway, i went straight to the hospital for x-rays and... amazingly (as i seem to catch every cold and flu bug going around), i don't have it.

money money money
by PoppyR infeeling pretty smug.. a couple of months ago i cancelled my dd to the society.
i have since been waiting to be struck by lightening, but as that hasn't happened, and i do feel i want to donate something, but wanted this time to think more carefully about it.
today i decided on my charity and set up a dd.

Hi Poppy!
The WT society approves of using credit cards now for donations? I remember a time when the churches started doing that and it was scoffed at by JW. Boy, anything to keep that money rolling in. In the US starting in January '06 credit card companies are going to raise your minimum monthly payments. For many it will be twice or more they will owe each month. I thought the society discouraged the use of credit cards? Guess things have changed. Juni
