Well, I guess I should start listening to my husband. He's been telling me for a couple of weeks that I'm a little off, and I haven't beleived him, but lately every time something goes wrong, I find a way of blaming myself and taking on all the guilt. Strange, that nearly every day there is a reason to take on the guilt. Denial has never helped. I prefer EMPower supplements to other meds. www.truehope.com. They are good at equalizing the poles and making me feel like myself, not that it is any less strange to be me. :) Come to think of it, I've put prayer and scriptures on the back burner also. That never helps. Here comes more guilt.
I have been noticing little things lately that seem to be clearly stating that God loves me and has forgiven me. Today has been a bit of a challenge. I hope it isn't showing up in my writing. It'll pass.
I took Rx a few years ago. Every day around 5:00 something would hit me and I'd be in tears, even if the day had gone well. I seemed to be spiralling down into some unfamiliar territory, and it was frightening me so I sought help. Through prayer, fasting, scriptures, and by doing all I could to help myself, I was able to receive the guidance I needed to bring me back to health. This guidance came from all different angles, and was all inclusive, like pieces falling into place in a jig saw puzzle. There are still quite a few missing, but I'm making progress.
Ho, hum, I don't want to post this.
