You are amazing


Roads

Recommended Posts

You are marvelous beyond words. There is no greater perfection than yours. When I see you, I see God, because this is what you are. You are one of his faces. One of his/her marvelous faces. Nobody else can be God the way you are. Nobody. You are the champion of your amazing category, You are an absolutely unique gem. You are sacred. Everything you are, your utter whole being. Everything, even what can seems undesirable and imperfect to you. There is nothing imperfect in you, nothing undesirable. Nothing. Be proud of yourself. Celebrate yourself. When men celebrate masses for bits of bread, God celebrates masses in your honour. Deploy yourself the most possible. Blaze by your so unique and beautiful flame the most intensely possible. This is the meaning of the parable of talents. There is no result expected from you. What is expected from you is just being yourself. The most possible. Brandish your flag.

If you didn't exist, the world would lack something. If you didn't exist, the world would not be so good.Never let you down. Highlight yourself. Run towards your dreams. Do good to you.

Of course. Everything that I say comes from me. If it wasn't mine, I wouldn't transmit it in my name.

Gorgeous. Thanks for this. :D

I've taken SSRIs & SNRIs for approx 20 years.

Have taken CLONAZEPAM for about 15 years.

Since the end of January 2014 I began weaning off of TRAZODONE.

I no longer take TRAZODONE.

In the fall of 2013 I began slowly, slowly tapering from 350 mg of effexor (about 50 mg over the period of 3 months). At this point I began feeling suicidal, highly anxious & unable to cope / function & went BACK on the full 350 mg dose.

In the beg. of April 2014 I took my last dose of 350mg EFFEXOR before going cold turkey.

I crashed about a month later (highly suicidal & excruciating anxiety) & slowly re-instated so I am back up to 150 mg since the beg. of May 2014.

I now take 2x.5mg or Clonazepam ev. day.

I take an Herbal Sleep Tincture, a Digestive Herbal Tincture, Magnesium Citrate, Omega Oils, Acidopholis, Vitamin B complex, Vitamin C, Colloidal Silver, Diatomaceous Earth, Zinc, Rhodiola, Ferritin...this fluxes slightly from month to month.
