"The end" has been soooo near for decades and decades. Eventually, people get sick of waiting on something that's been promised but never comes. Let's see how many JW's will be left after the last one of the anointed ones dies.

Hi Dave,
I am so sorry to hear about your cat. I have a 7 year old cat myself, and she is all I have family-wise. Pets do become a part of the family, and when you have to let them go, it hurts. Hang in there.

*stands up, eyes spilling hot tears*
Hi I am Chris and I'm a JWD addict as well. My family and my pets moved out when I asked the plumber to turn my office chair into a toilet seat, in order not to lose precious on - line time while using the facilities.
(oops, that was bad)

I am new and scared
by franki ini am terrified to be writing this because i am officially being bad.
i am talking with other "sinners".
i do not want to be a witness.

Hi Franki, welcome to the forum. Don't be afraid, worry about one day at the time. Don't tell anyone you are posting here. However, we are not 'sinners'. Most of us are just people who have looked further than the watchtower, and found truths that had been hidden from us.
If you don't want to be a JW, I'd suggest, don't pretend or lead a double life. As one of the above posters mentioned, it only leads to stress. Someone asked the question if you are baptized.. this is an important question, because if you are not baptized, then there should be no reason for your family to shun you, even if you don't want to be a JW.
Good luck, Franki, and hugs to you.

Soak your foot in peroxide, then in hot water. Stop eating hamburgers and such. Drink cranberry juice and don't forget to take your vitamins. Gout is a b*tch.

Jules,
I am so very sorry for your loss. There is nothing more traumatic than losing someone you love. Please hang in there.
Honestly, I don't think that anyone can tell you for sure where exactly Dan is right now. However, you know that he tried to do what was right, and that is what really matters. I hope that you have people who are close to your heart so that they can help you through this rough time. If not, don't hesitate to send me a pm, I'm only a stranger, but if you need someone to listen, I'm here and I have phone and IM!
Hugs,
Chris

Bad news from my blood test :(
by Elsewhere inthe other day i went in for a routine physical and today i got the results in the mail.
it turns out my cholesterol is out of wack and needs to be corrected.
(normal) numbers in parenth are what my levels should be.. cholesterol = 249 ( < 200 ).

Elsewhere,
Go to a health food store and buy Red Yeast Rice. It is a natural product which lowers the cholesterol in your blood considerably, and it is cheap as well. It is distributed by a company named NOW- FOODS, most health food stores buy from that company. if not, you might be able to order it on line. it is completely harmless, anyone can take it, and you will see results within 6 weeks.
I never believed in natural supplements until I started seeing some real results. The natural supplements are better for you and often a lot cheaper than what the pharmacy has to offer.
