  Suicide and This and That .....

  by Celtic in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  how many of you have really gone through suicidal feelings, when you felt that no-one at all was out there to try to assist you?

  did it help you to be told by so called friends, 'just pull your socks up!

  ' did you feel that such admonition was really daft and stupidly uncaring?

  Celtic, good question.

  I have been in the "funk" so many times I cannot count. Its a feeling that for one reason or another I can never explain. I just know that when I'm "in it" there is really nothing anyone can do. No words, no advice can pull me out.

  My close friends are aware of this. Sometimes when my mind is fogged I have asked them to come over and not say a word, just be there. They don't have to understand anything, but they are willing to just come over and sit.

  If I had an explanation for it, I would know how to get over it when it starts, usually lasts for about a week.

  I am happy to say the intervals of this are less frequent now, I'm not exactly sure why. Maybe because after almost 20 yrs Im taking some responsibility for my recovery from the JW's as well as other things.

  I was told that suicidal feelings are the result of ones pain exceeding their coping abilities. So the answer is to either reduce the pain or escalate the ability to cope. Not sure how this is done though. I have always just come out of it through time.

  Call DPS in austin and check what the requirements are for finding drivers license info on someone. It is public record and I do believe all you need is full name and birthday. If he is not in TX then all I can say would be to check with the DMV in other states. I think they only charge 2 or 3 bucks for the information, I'm not sure. Hope that helps.

  "The Day The Music Died"

  by Farkel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in 1972 the great irish balladeer don mcclean introduced the song "american pie.

  " it was and still is a classic.

  the song is full of symbolism and even to this day almost thirty years after the song was first introduced, mcclean will not reveal the real meanings behind much of that symbolism.. in that song, he sings about "the day the music died.

  Or maybe it was when they invented the 8 track.

  Just a thought.

  Here is an alternative thought:

  She is aware that you have been inactive and she is also on the brink of being dfd herself you say. Maybe she needs a way out herself?

  Other than that, "Dont believe everything you hear" is probably the best response you can give.

  'The Assembly days'

  by jolly_green_giant in

  remember going to the 3 day assembly every summer, sitting for numerous exhausting hours on end?

  those were tough on me especially when i was really young and wasn't supposed to be roaming the convention center while the talks were being given.

  i couldn't beleive those pricks with the "please be seated" sings.

  Yes I do remember the 4 day assemblies. It was so good to have my entire summer vacation used to attend such a wonderful event. (barf)
  I always wore the volunteer badge myself to do food service. Great way to meet women and never had to listen to any of the crap going on inside. Never had to hold the 'please be seated' sign but I would bet those guys volunteered for that job for the same reason.

  Yes, thank you He is a happy God.
  I praise Him for bringing me to that light. After growing up as a dub, it was difficult for me to see that. Recently though He has told me in various ways that it was the WT who made Him out to be so evil and vengeful. And boy is He pissed about that.
