Lithium is very effective for bipolar disorder. I was prescribed it for a short while after a short manic episode. (Unreasonably optimistic, no need for sleep, no need to eat.)
But it was just a spike in what is chronic dysthymia.(low mood) so just be sure the psychiatrist has got the right diagnosis.
BTW wozadummys smiley sequence cracked me up!!

Lithium?
by spoils_useful_habits inrecently one of my brothers was diagnosed with bi-polar disorder by a psychiatrist.
this has hit me hard emotionally because out of the whole bunch we are the closest.
i've always suspected something was up.

religion sells hope
by Omegaman inkarl marx had it right when he said religion is opium (drug) for the people.
think about it, when a person is on drugs they feel wonderful, they would appear happy if you asked them how they feel they would say on top of the world very happy..but the reality is they may have lost their home, bank accounts, family and have nothing tangible to show for there lives.
does this sound familiar?.

The 'hope' for many Witnesses is like rubber band that has stretched taut.
What do you do when you find that the hope is unfounded?
Is it any wonder that those who have had their hope taken away commit suicide? Ask a DF'd person who has struggled to get re-instated.
Just some thoughts. -

For years carbon dated was maligned in the WT for being grossly inaccurate.
As good Witnesses we never bothered to check if this was so. And as Watching The World in the Awake! reported the latest dating of a fossil being cut from 40 billion years to 38 billion years we would all cheer and say that soon they'll admit that they were only a few thousand years old! -

For those unfamiliar with the current cricket world cup going on at the moment... Bob Woolmer was the coach of the Pakistani team. He was found murdered in his hotel room last week.

Entertaining God

I'd say, 'putting fingers in ears going la la la la', "I don't believe in you. You're not real!"
or maybe I'd take him in, lock the door and call the Galactic Police. I'd have him charged with abandoning his 'pets'.
The foregoing is not supposed to be funny. ;(
