Also, hasn't the GB changed the rules before in regards to being able to talk to family who are df'd or da'd? If so, would anyone know the reference? Thanks.

i am trying to help someone and need some advice.
when i left the jw's, i was one of the fortunate ones in that i was never shunned.
my family has unconditional love for all their kids which seems to be a hard concept for a lot of active jw's to grasp.

Hi all,
I am trying to help someone and need some advice. When I left the jw's, I was one of the fortunate ones in that I was never shunned. My family has unconditional love for all their kids which seems to be a hard concept for a lot of active jw's to grasp.
Here is a brief summary of the situation this person is in. Her father is an elder and her mom is a pioneer. She has 2 brothers who are ministarial servants.An ideal family right? LOL
Then, there is her. She (being such a wicked rebel) disassociated herself at 21. Her parents gave no understanding and did not attend her wedding. She is wondering what can be done? She is also seeing a therapist. Being the holidays makes for an extra stressful time. Any advice or success stories please??
Thanks.

Gumby,
The only self medication I would recommend is aspirin. Drugs are not something to be done without a doctor's supervision. I would never take more that the perscribed amount either. I don't do that and I won't get into trouble. Trying to regulate your alcohol intake if you think you may have a problem with the stuff is dangerous. Most of the time people who think they may have a problem at least have a borderline problem if not more.
To recommend other advise is really foolish. Better to play it safe when around drugs or alcohol. That is what makes sense. If you don't believe me, go to your local AA and talk with people and see where they were when they wound up there. They weren't on top of the world, trust me.

If you think you have a problem, then it is very possible you do. Having a drink at 8 AM is not usual drinking behavior. The first big question I would ask is whether it is interferring in your life on a regular basis? Also, is your employer, family, or friends noticing that you are having a problem or not as reliable as usual?
There are different types of problem drinkers whether it be binge drinking or drinking to blot out reality of life. The deal with alcohol is that is creeps up on you and can overtake you. Medication can be regulated, but alcohol is very hard to regulate. Also, self-medication is never a good idea. Can you just take a couple of drinks and stop or do you have to keep on going? That is often one of the big things to look at. Sometimes people start out with only drinking every few days to then doing it every other day and then every day. Please be careful!!
Ron
hi sir paul!.

Ok Refiners,
