I agree. Let's huddle under a blanket until help arrives. I brought hot chocolate!

Apologies. I left the window open. All the spambots being shoveled into the incinerator lately has been keeping the place a bit too hot for my liking. Perhaps Pixie is right and there's more viking in my blood than I realize.

I'll chuck a bot in the stove - that'll heat things fairly quickly. In the meantime, there's stocking caps, mittens and blankets in the storage lockers and I'll set out some snifters and cognac.

I never meant - as I hope you read - any alternative to replace real medicin. But in my experience doctors don't listen and don't give a **** about how you feel with whatever you're having. Decent alternative healers don't charge a lot.
Maybe it's different over here, I don't know.
Also there's so much fraud and people with bad intentions that it also does away with the ones who really only want to help and sometimes do - like a helpline people phone when in need. For some people, this works and while I think you should protect the feebleminded and desperate (they're not necessarily the same category) from fraud and your money being taken away for nothing, if you pay for someone for his time, what it boils down to as someone really listening, and there just happens to be a lot of decorum around it but it makes someone feel better (and it doesn't stop this person from getting real medicin!), then you only patronize people telling them what is good for them. And my ego's not so big that I can decide that.
I will always point out flaws, fraud, dubious theories. But I've found that if often boils to someone really listening, even when paid for, and that that helps. It wouldn't be for me.

Also, where's the line? With my complaints the doctors ran out of ideas and I was running out of money simultanously. One of my gp's suggested using highly concentrated ginger tablets. It kinda helps, not always but sometimes it does. Sometimes the line between herbal remedies and "real medicins" is thin.


And how about this one. We all know you can't talk to the death.
But what if someone genuinly believes he or she can?
And what if someone is shocked and traumatized by the loss of a loved one, and believes in people being able to talk to the death?
In an ideal situation this person will once hear that the loved one says all is well now, he is in a happy place, and wants the person to move on. You only need to hear that once, and that can give closure.

A fraud will try to get a second visit out of this person, which serves no purpose of reassurance.

Vivi I can agree with you and with pharphis
:D
But your talking Faith and Community and he's talking science and medical treatment.
I know you are at the point where the later is not help much more and the former is.

you jsut reminded me I never properly responded to Vivi's reply to my reply to Vivi!

I was at a conference over the weekend, but I think bob covered what I remember getting out of your post. I'll give it another look this week sometime to see if I had any more to add :)
 
The Noodle Compound

I'm keeping BPC warm while being carried about by Loz and serving hot chocolate. Nothing to see here at all. Have some marshmallows. Anyone want lava cake? It's molten.

Edit: forgot to hug Kamap. *hugs Kamap

Re: The Noodle Compound

It's not so much that it's cold in here.

It's cold inside me.

I have a knot in my stomach.

I have a very good knowledge and understanding of myself. Despite everything that's happened in life, I can sort things, reason things, understand things.

So I'm not one of those people when faced with something emotionally upsetting will say that I don't know what to do.

I know what to do.

I just don't feel ready to do it yet. And I think I have time, so I'll give it time. But the decision is made. I can feel it. Like half a year before my bf and I split up, we knew. We didn't have to say. We both knew we were going to split up and that it had become a matter of when instead of if.

But it leaves me with a knot in my stomach. It's cold, inside.
 
Re: The Noodle Compound

Vivi, this sounds just a bit suicidal. Do we need to send Cyrax to your house to check on you? I am half kidding. That's a disturbing post.
 
Re: The Noodle Compound

No it's not.

It's simply saying that I know what I must do, what is best for me.
Doesn't say anywhere I'm going to top myself. I don't intend to either.
I'm sane, and, as always, sober.
I think I could do with a hug. But not with a pint.
 
Re: The Noodle Compound

*envelopes Vivi in a very warm hug, holds her tight and gently strokes her hair in a very sisterly way

It's going to be OK, Vivi. I brought your favorite tea. Have some!
 
Re: The Noodle Compound

Yay.
I also need gloves. My hands are cold. My room is not but the watery cold from outside has gotten into my bones and it makes using the mouse awkward.
Not as awkward as the people from the local tractor factory who called my IT friend telling them that they needed a new mouse as a mouse had nibbled on their mouse. IT in the countryside.
 
Re: The Noodle Compound

Sometimes I like to go to the pond dressed as a duck, and throw whole loaves of bread at people.
 
Re: The Noodle Compound

Marble rye. It's nice and dense, and I can get a good tight spiral on it. Really makes an impact.
