  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I need prayers for perserverence. I'm awake at 3:14 AM, am very sad and discouraged. I thought I had found the right meds for my bipolar disorder last week, but I think the few good nights sleep was a result of transient side effects of Seroquel. I realize getting this right can sometimes take awhile- please pray for me, I'm so tired.

Father, I lift up Allye right now and pray that you will give her and her doctors wisdom as they deal with her bi polor condition. May you help them get her medication right so she will be able to function as normal as possible. Wrap your loving arms around her and encourage her during these tough times.

Doses are also important. The key is the blood level the medication reaches. If your dose is too high, you will get better for a while, a few days or so, until the blood level of the med rises above the right dose for you and the effects will fade.
I've got a really good doctor. I pay for it too, but his ability to accomplish the right medicine and dose has probably saved me money in the long run.

Music and books in the meantime for you.

Thanks so much to all who have answered and prayed. I made it through work today-not pleasantly- but felt the strength of your prayers. My follow-up doctor visit is 2/25 at 5pm US central time- Cordova, Tennessee- if anyone wants to get really specific! Each of you and the CF site is a great blessing to me right now.

Thanks Mr. Cheese and Cat for good advice. Allye
