  I would say to him that I certainly would, then....

  ...and will the WT repent if it doesn't come in our lifetimes as they've said over and over?

  Depression & natural ways to deal with it

  by love2Bworldly in

  2. friends

  i was on prozac for about 10 years, and finally went off all meds about 18 months ago.

  the prozac was causing me to have manic episodes, so they added a bipolar medicine as well as a sleep aid, and the bipolar medicine made me dizzy & nauseaus.

  so now i work really hard at exercising regularly, i take a lot of natural supplements including natural lithium & megadoses of omega upon advice of a homeopathic doctor.

  Public Talks all MANUSCRIPT now???

  by hamsterbait in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  on another thread gingerbread said (ouch - the poetry is not deliberate!

  ) that all sunday public talks are now manuscript.. is this why the brothers have been doing babble readings without adding any comment?

  so they can just regurgitate words convincingly whether they understand or not??.

  The Android app MyFitnessPal is really excellent btw. In general for me it's relearning how to cook in ways that foods on the Mediterranean diet are easy and reasonably quick.

  @Phizzy - my downfall was finding lots of good local live music and outstanding craft IPA served with it. I'll no deny I had a great time adding back the calories.

  @PTN - I will check out the South Beach book. Of course I've heard about it, but didn't know it was a cardiologist who developed it.

  Thus I'm trying to combine the two. I'd like to 20-25 lbs which would make me very svelte.

  Anyone else interested in trading tips, thoughts?

  Sam - would you have felt the same if the valedictorian was Muslim and read a Muslim prayer?

  EDIT: I wrote this before reading the last three comments. I don't expect Sam will chime in
