I did not mean to come across as being "judgemental".
Seriously, I do feel for people who suffer!
If I didn't I would not have tried to be helpful to begin with.
If people would take control of their lives and I mean by that if they realize their self worth as being equal to the rest of the world's things would be easier to change.
To not take yourself seriously but to take others seriously shows a lack of faith in yourself...something no one should be without.
I should not be condemned for attempting to shed some light on a book that doesn't have to remain closed. Once twisted does not mean permanently doomed.
A psych ward is a pretty far cry from the outside ward where people who can pull themselves together really live. I did not say that
everyone could be cured did I?
I think I merely stated the basics to building a foundation for better living and some people felt attacked by it and blew it out of proportion in saying that It was implied that they are inferior.
For them to gather that from valid and useful information shows an inability to cope with their own problems. Blame there does not lie with me, nor will I accept it because I tried to offer help.
I did not mention diet alone. I also added a totally different way of looking at things...a positive way. I did not say it is the cure but a start towards making life a better place to be. I also added that forgivenss can mean everything. It was a great tool in my helping myself, to forgive the people who had brought me so far down. I never said it was easy. I said it takes time and practice.
Not my intention at all to hurt people or anger them with my opinions but I am not the only person on the planet that has been cured and I get the feeling that you think I am or that you think I think I am.
With the exception of people who have been conditioned to taking meds for the rest of their lives, I don't think anyone is out of reach of making life better.
It takes a personal commitment. People won't fix you for you, you have to want to be fixed.
Have you guys seen where I stated that I have suffered from depression?
I know the inability to function that it brings...the pain...the illness.
I am not talking out my a$$ here.
We are all human...on that level we are going to have the same emotions. We just don't have to let them rule us.
Once again I am sorry I even said anything. If we could sit here and talk face to face you all might not take everything I am trying to point out in such a negative manner. Or maybe you would.
I really do care.
Moni
