Guest guest Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 I believe it. now lets all go out and get that papilloma vaccine, which contains 4 strains of the virus, which you will never get in your entire life (all 4 strains at once). We will surely see chronic disease from this kind of immune attack but the effects will probably be far down the road and denied like Gulf War Syndrome was denied (rumored to be caused by anthrax vaccine). -- Re: Personal issue - friends dropping like flies? My last vaccine I gave was my little dog, and it was her rabies so I could take her into the nursing home to see my grandmother. Within 10 days afte that vacicine her coat went south. She was a beautiful glossy black tikl then when I started seeing dead reddish tones in her coat. Sh eis now on 6 grais of natural thyroid, daily. and only 2 years old. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 I am not pushing the money on her. She DOES want the money and has told me so repeatedly. She just will not tell me how she wants it and I am very reluctant to send a check. My father told me to give her money and that was his wish. I don't think my pushing money on her is the issue. I am fulfilling dad's last wishes. I may just send the check and forget about it. -- Re: Personal issue - friends dropping like flies? - I'm confused. Why you continue to push the money on her when she has shown no gratitude or interest in it? Is it because of your feelings that it's your responsibility to " take care of " the family? You're not obligated to give it to her, you know. It wasn't willed to her. She's shown no willingness to accept the offer. Stop beating yourself up over trying to give it to her. Keep it & take care of yourself. I have been trying to get the money to her for 6 months! She has commented that she does not want to pay taxes on it, as if there is any tax. So I am supposed to do a lot of work to get her this money! I told her last week to send me the account number or tell me how she wants the money to be sent. I get a social email never mentioning it. My family and ex bf have a history of getting services from me and when I have offered, it ends up being so much more work for me that I am just staying alone, period. I cannot fathom someone who is about to receive 10k totally free, trying to make me work to get it to her (sister). > > So in this respect I do believe I created what happens with people in my life. I did not however, create the family that pushed me into this role starting as a small child who had to take care of my siblings and parents.

I don't think that there's any way to rule it out. > Janis: , I have thought about this a lot. I do believe most of us are sensitive by nature, and we obviously are prone to endocrine problems if there is enough stress put on us. I don't think in my case that I would have gotten sick if I had not been so disempowered. I was a stay at home mom, no money, nothing to fall back on, and when he got critical of me, I would feel so trapped because I believed I was stuck due to finances. That's when my body began to break down. I couldn't admit that the marriage was doing me no good; I wasn't meant to live a life which told me I'm not a good enough wife, housekeeper, cook, etc. The only thing he said I was good at was being a mother. I believe this poisoned my psyche; it was a form of psychological abuse that eroded my self-esteem and my spirit. I still feel damaged because I am afraid to try to meet anyone. Maybe when my hormones are balanced, I will get the courage. But back to your question, I don't know whether any other stress would have had the same damaging effect on me other than this marriage. That's why marriage on the point scale of stressors is a high number. When marriage is good, it can be a stress reliever. Blessed are those who have the support of a good husband!

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 I'll do even better. I copied and pasted the rules out of the book so that you can really understand it.... 1). First I will list the Bananas. These are thoughts/beliefs/assumptions that can lead us to ill health, and later I will show you the " healthy " ways....We should not allow bananas to dictate how we operate. some common bananas: I must be loved I have to be successful I must not show weakness I must have more money I must not show anger I have to get it right I should always know what to do I should always be a good parent I must not rock the boat I have to help people I should not be sad I must not be selfish I must have revenge Okay, so now some common themes when these bananas are assumptions, thoughts and believes would be: Thinking we must be selfish if we insist on having our own emotional needs met Blaming others for our problems or distress Rigidly adhering to the rules set by others without questioning them, e.g. " That's what the boss says and that must be right " . Constantly saying " I must....I should, or I have to " ....in everyday talk. Abusing food, drugs or alcohol instead of attending to our own emotional needs... Becoming driven or obsessional, about single issues instead of balancing them with other activities... Remaining victims instead of taking responsibility and speaking up for ourselves. Getting lost in the past " If only " ... ------------------------------------------------- The body's intelligence strives to: Equilibrium: a balance between what we do for ourselves and what we do for others. Authenticity: the expression of our emotional truth Personal satisfaction and fulfillment Excitement, interest, deep curiosity Engagement in mutually rewarding relationships with other people Happiness, joy, serenity and inner peace building environments (homes, families, work) which foster emotional well-being and health ------------------------------------------------------- In order to achieve the above, we should operate in the following way: Staying in the present and noticing what is actually going on Setting realistic limits to what one can and cannot do Checking the facts--what is possible and what is not? Making decisions and planning for action Putting things into words and speaking up Drawing boundaries between self and others Recognising (bananas) and letting them go Is simple, direct, honest and self-respectful Learns how to say " no " to unrealistic demands from others Looks for new solutions to old problems " Goes with the flow " and adapts as people and situations change Sees the humor in situations. ><< citbannA.gif >> ><< CitrusPunchBkgrd.gif >> Re: Personal issue - friends dropping like > > > flies? > > > > > > > Val, > > > > > > > > I hear what you are saying.
