  An Unsettling Experience

  by snowbird in

  in the year 2011, i was very ill with severe anxiety and panic attacks.. my psychiatrist prescribed two potent anti-depressants.. one day, when i was all alone, i heard a distinct voice say, "there are knives in the kitchen - small, medium, and large ...".

  the voice trailed off, but the meaning was clear: use one of those knives on yourself!.

  my niece in atlanta reported a similar experience when she was prescribed the same anti-depressants following a stillborn delivery.. i'm curious.. has anyone else experienced something like this?.

  Can execrate and imprecate be used interchangeably?

  Thanks, Paula.

  The JW religion is one of the most stifling on earth.

  It's no wonder so many of us became physically and emotionally ill while trying to keep up with its demands.
