  Looking for a little insight for a school project re: BiPolar Disorder.

  by lostlantern in

  2. friends

  i am working on my school assignment and i have a couple of questions regarding helpful activities for individuals with bipolar disorder.

  i don't have any personal experience with the disease, does anyone have any knowledge or family members that have had to live with this?

  i have done some research but i can't find any information that relates to 'daily activities' that may help an individual.

  this is my first post and might be my only post, not sure.

  i've chosen to "come out" for a moment just to talk about the 30 minute change in the public talk on sundays.

  my father and brother are both elders, this change was a blow to them they enjoy giving encouraging public talks to the friends.

  a friend just said that disfellowshipping is no longer practiced due to legalities, does anyone know if this true?

  haven't spoken to 'family' for a long time but we did get a letter from mom reminding us when the memorial was.

  the date was underlined.

  there's no way we're going but if anyone has any experiences to share - please do so.

  my brothers and their wives stopped speaking to me back in august, everything hit the fan.

  my parents just returned from a visit and my mom brought me something from my sister-n-law, very weird.

  so i sent her a thank you card and after a few weeks she responds with a short note resembling this:.

  Talk on Apostates

  by IslandBrother in

  2. bible

  have you ever walked on the beach and tried following another persons footprints; matching your own steps with them as exactly as possible?

  by calling ourselves christians, we have indicated our desire to do just that, to follow closely in the footsteps of christ.

  have you ever noticed though that on a crowded beach, , there were several sets of footprints, many of them may look alike.

  thumbnail details: lifelong jw and former elder with 30 family members in.

  came to realize it wasn't the truth at age 38, just over two years ago.

  have been fading with my 19 year old daughter, making two, major, long-distance moves.
