Recovery of an Adult Convert (Excluded from Christmas)

on my previous thread, i wrote about reconnecting with my family:.

too little, too late, i sadly admit.. holidays, specifically christmas, were always special for us since we were able to all be together.

Shared DNA does not necessarily equate to family.

Very true. There are people I've met that would walk across hot coals to just to share my company and then I have bio family members that wouldn't expectorate in my direction if I were on fire. I've found that my true 'family' is made up of those that love without boundries.

I am so terribly sorry that you have had to go through that. I wish you the very best.

well it looks like this site is a real melting pot, a broad spectrum of views and beliefs.

for sure there are many disaffected ex jws.

so in as few words as possible, preferably not more than one sentence, how would you describe yourself spiritually?

Someone ask me what I mean by flaming atheist, please.

Why not, how bad could it be? I come from the home city of the Flaming Lips, so....

Hey Philip, what's a flaming atheist?

"preferably not more than one sentence...for the sake of clarity...all capitals"

IN ADDITION TO THE BELIEFS LISTED IN MY POST ABOVE, I HAVE A SPIRITUAL AVERSION TO FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS.

I used to be a devout frisbeeist, but I got better. Now I'm a right-wing fundamentalist religious nut-job, with sprinkles. Sometimes I miss my frisbee.

Viral meningitis

by BrentR in

how long did it take to get over it?

i woke up last sat with severe forehead pain and later on very bad nausea.

i went to the docs on mon and was diagnosed with a migraine and the lab results came back on wed with an elevated wbc.

RisingEagle

Dang Brent, when you do it you do it up bigtime! That's an interesting course of treatment: Ibuprofen, a steroid, an anti-barf pill and hillbilly heroin. Are you doing any supplements to well, supplement the Dr's treatment?
