KH weddings
by rockmehardplace ini did not want to hijack the other thread on kh funerals.
when i got married, my wife and i were married at the kh.
i wanted a particular family member as my best man but because he was not a baptized brother, they would not allow it.

Anybody remember a QFR on JW nurses tattling on blood transfusions?
by Open mind ini've looked on jwn (first) and watchtower library (second) and can't find a questions from readers that i thought i remembered from the 70s or 80s.
maybe it wasn't actually a qfr.
anyway, the gist of the question was, what does a conscientious jw nurse do when, in the course of her duties, she becomes aware of a fellow jw who is accepting a blood transfusion or getting an abortion.

COULD ANYONE SUFFER FROM DEPRESSION .??
by Mr. Majestic inbeing in the organisation for most of my life i have seen so many people suffering with depression.
but a friend of mine recently said that it was impossible for them to suffer from the condition, because of the mental strategies they have in place to cope with hard times, and a mental resilience that they attained from a balanced stable upbringing..... .
could it be true that some people have a natural immunity to such a debilitating mental condition....???.

Effects, side effects, and withdrawals from Effexor.
by El Kabong inseveral years ago, my doctor prescribed effexor to help combat mild depression.
they started me on a small dose and gradually increased it to 150mg per day.. i'm not sure i can honestly say that the drug helped me in any way shape or form.
what i do know is if i ever was late with a dose, my body had no problems telling me it was time to take the drug.
