Uhm. Lou, I don't really appreciate your fear mongering. I have been trying to deal with these issues without medical attention and my life has fallen apart. Please understand that I'm just trying to be well. I had this discussion with a spiritual friend of mine today and she was explaining that perhaps this is the lifeboat that God is giving me, and not to be foolish and try to let mania and suicidal tendencies run wild in the name of "faith". We have faith, but that doesn't mean we don't drink water or eat food because we think God delivers all things without effort. We have bodies, and they have needs. God helps those who help themselves, and after a long time of suffering, this is how I am coming back to a place of wellness, so I can be of service to other people. I'm very upset by your comment, bc you implying that a mentally ill person taking medication makes them an ungodly person. Clearly you don't have an empathetic heart, because if you could feel for 5 seconds what I feel on a daily basis, you wouldn't be so quick to pass judgement on me.
I hope and pray that everyone gets what they need in life, including you, which appears to be a clue.
On a more positive note, for some reason I'm feeling much calmer tonight. Perhaps the med is starting to work. Now I'm all upset bc of the direction this threat has turned but I will report on how I feel tomorrow.
Lou if you want to do something helpful, say a prayer that I get better, and stop trying to scare a person who is already afraid of life itself.
