Here's your answer Gypsy: Say "Feel Good" because doesn't it feel good to sneeze?
When I was bamboozled in I thought, oh bummer, can't say bless you. So I came up with "Feel Good". I said it for years, still do sometimes.
What are you NOT allowed to say as a Jehovahs Witness?

Can't pick up a greeting card that has the word "wish" or "wishes" i.e. "Best wishes".

@KiddingMe - Or with horseshoes on the front.
Can't clink glasses with friends when you meet up for a drink.
Can't say "to us!" or anything similar.Can't have a party, has to be a get-together.
Some are as sensitive about 'fortunately' as they are about 'luckily'. In this case use 'happily'.
Euphemisms such as Gee! Jeepers Creepers! Crumbs! Gosh! can all get a raised eyebrow.
You're sailing close to the wind if you use the word Bloody in context.

"So, I was talking with Jesus today and..."
"I've been dating this Catholic girl..."
"I think I hear Santa and his reindeer..."
"So, if I join the Armed Forces, they'll pay for college?"
"And then I can get a Master's Degree?"
"That's a lot of candles on my birthday cake"
"Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so..."
