Being able to speak in public. I recently spent some time working a booth in the mall to promote a group
I volunteer with. I joked with the ladies that it was about time my time in a mind control cult benefited me.
All the skills I learned from informal witnessing are making it much easier for me to spread my apostasy.

Multiple Sclerosis
by 4mylove ini have a young sibling with ms. does anyone here know of any current treatment that hasn't been published yet?
i had heard at one point that there was a blood pressure medicine that was proving hopeful.
my bro is ready to stop copaxone, even though we all worry that this will eventually cause a relapse.

Diet and exercise helped my mom. She started showing signs of it in her mid 30's so fairly young as well. She is very careful about preservatives and additives. She started doing exercises first in the pool and then on to any exercise program that encourages balance and stretching.
We also considered medicinal mariguana for pain but she hasn't used it yet, that I know of.
She has had a few relapse over the years but most of them are brought on by stress or illness.
She also avoids some stores and building with certain kinds of lighting. Not really sure why she just says they bother her.

I can honestly say I know how you feel, the following is a copy of an email a close friend sent to me. I changed the names for their privacy.

After being up all night thinking about our conversation.
I keep going back to one point, and that is you've become very self centred, and selfish. Its true that the seperating work has already started. All you had to say for yourself was...you went on line, read apostate crap and so now your a better person. whatever.
In reality all youve done is put yourself above Jehovah, in that your trust is not in him, but in yourself!
Its sad that Satan put hardly no effert into gainning your loyalty.
What future do those boys have now? Do you want your children to only know this system? Who honestly cares whether or not our kids see college? I dont even want XXXXXXX to start kingergarden...I Want the new system to come, Im praying that my kids dont have to strugle the way Justin and I do just to get by. Because I do love them, not because Im affraid.
So if your choise is to leave Jehovah, then youve already left me... If I feel this betraid and this hurt and angree with you....How could you posibly think Jehovah is still lessioning to your prayers? Do you think Jehovah is proud of you?
As a friend, Im going to say smarten up. As your sister Im throghing a bucket of water on you and telling you, your thinking is wrong and you should know better given your being raised in the truth...Im willing to help you come back, do whatever it takes to win my friend back, you know were i am.
Untill then I miss you, I'm sorry I've lost you.
I still cry when I read that. -

Online games
by RollerDave inok, here's a safer topic.. what is with people who can live their entire life in an online game?.
i have an ex who submerged herself in world of warcraft and insisted on talking about characters, places, events, and items from in-game as if they existed in the real world.. she would start off telling me she was going someplace to do something, and in the end it would be 'wait a minute, this is all in-game?!?'.
then i'd be all exasperated that she'd wasted my time.. she even tried to leave her husband and child for some guy from texas who 'fell in love' with her avvie on star wars galaxies!.

I met a woman today who told me the copy of COC was always checked out. I was going to lend her my copy but it has been signed by satan and franz a few times and I wouldn't want it to go missing.
