Yeah... my best advice is to let medical professionals do their job and keep your health care/treatment options private. Good of mental health to you! ☺️

I was just speaking to a brother about this the other day. He had a sad look on his face and said, ‘Things have changed now. New light and we have a better understanding.’ ??‍♀️ One ‘prominent’ elder in a Hall was particularly hard on certain people. Today- his wife is schizophrenic. Doesn’t make any meetings. Even attacked his mother- fell down and broke her own leg! LoL. Now- why isn’t she publicly reproved for violence? Or labeled inactive? Or disfellowshipped for her crazy talking? ‘Back in the day’ She would have been kicked out on her broken leg. Or perhaps it would have depended on who she was/is related to too. Im glad things have changed. It’s been rough for some of our brothers. Very thought provoking question here.

@James Thomas Rook Jr. only if you add HGH to your test injections will you at 71 become as a younger Arnold in his prime! LoL

Omg. I don’t think this is what Jehovah meant when he said, ‘my name will become known’. I think sometimes we’re forgetting just how holy his name is. ‘Catch up with Jehovah’ though? See... A modern day Moses would go off. “I give you hotdogs and this is what you do!” LoL. ??‍♀️ Oh Jehovah, we’re really a mess. As a people...we need a rescuer forreal, but you already knew. You already saw it coming. ??‍♀️ Now I’ll never look at ‘catch up’ the same. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Isn’t she communicating with him unnecessarily? A bit much and unloving.

@James Thomas Rook Jr. Good point. #checkmate

@Chelita it’s in U.S. The person who sent me the picture is a family member NOT in the truth and he was shocked. He asked me, ‘Can y’all do that?’ So, it was an unfavorable witness. I’m certain they meant well but what is lawful is not always advantageous.

No one is ‘judging’. It’s an opinion- your thoughts on the matter- kinda like you gave your thoughts and opinion. You call is a bold action that you give respect for. Okay. That’s fine. I personally think it’s a bit ‘churchy’ and a bit too much. The GB doesn’t even go this far. No one in Bethel would dare have this tag and I don’t think the organization had this in mind as a way to promote the website. Is it okay to hang a JW.og flag outside my home? Just sayin’. It’s just a bit much. As @Joan Kennedy said, ‘better not go 26mph in a 25mph zone.’ JW- the name comes with heavy responsibilities and driving a car with that tag can open JW.org up to harsh criticism, reproach and embarrassment. Imagine getting a red light ticket with your tag number: JW.org. Imagine folding that up to be mailed! LoL Oh my word! You’d better be the most courteous driver of all time! Or imagine someone else drove the car who wasn’t as ‘spiritual’ as this owner. Hmmmmmm.

I understand the necessity and need and desire to preach the word and it’s urgency, however, would this be a witness if this person were pulled over by a cop? Or speeding? Or cut someone off? Or playing ‘worldlyÂ’ music? ItÂ’s a bit commercialized. I certainly would NEVER want to drive a car with that tag for ‘we all stumble many times.Â’ Driving in a neighborhood could be a ‘warningÂ’ instead of a witness. Idk. How far is too far?

Bethelite Bobby Brother with a box of band-aids just isn't the surgeon you want working on your heart.

@strawberrymermaidIm pretty late in responding but uh... Call your local Kingdom Hall. Any elder can give it to you.

I’ve given Marinol to elderly patients to help increase appetite. It works wonders! What’s the difference between marijuana and dronabinol/Marinol?Marinol (dronabinol) is a pill that is available by prescription and has FDA approval to treat certain conditions. Dronabinol is also known as THC, and it is the primary psychoactive cannabinoid in the prescription medication.

It’s okay.  Your comments made me think of myself and my own experiences.  I take it all in stride now.  Thanks for sharing!!! ... now my problem is makeup.  LOLOLOLOL #itsgoodtolaugh ??

@TrueTomHarley I agree. My own situation was a bit different. Being that I lived in a predominately African American community with modesty being of great concern to me (as it was not my dress but hair) it NOW seems laughable. Modest braids are on WT and AWAKE! covers and they are beautiful. Sisters are now participating on Assemblies with modest ‘sisterlocks’! Yes- dreadlocks! Brothers wearing beards. ?Things have changed and a focus is on the inner not the outter. I adjusted ofcourse ... but I also know that I should have been considered too. It is well. I follow the chariot wherever it goes. P.S. I pay close attention when singing to prevent me from belting out the wrong words to ‘old songs’ I think I know. ??‍♀️
