Hi Ladyvols, I don't think that I am so much a profound writer. I make a lot of mistakes in my writing. I do try to provide enough information to make my points clear. A lot of people don't get it, but if a few do, then that's great and all good. I think that almost everyone has been down a path whe...

I found through bible study and debating with my wife that the answers are in the bible. We let other men buld our...

I don't have any idea why you are having these spurts. If I were experiencing this, from my own understanding of me, I'd know I was having growth spurts. Not always comfortable, but they do truly feel like they are pushing me forward (instead of holding me back, or sliding me backwards). When this h...

I'm sure your family do not look down on you as being worthless. It is hard for them to understand what you are feeling with the anxiety, depression and being Gay. They cannot relate to your situation because they have not researched and become knowledgeable on the subject of people who suffer with ...

Do they make a 5mg of Lexapro?? I had to cut my 10's in half to start at 5, then quarter to go up to 7.5 and now on 10. Side effects were minimal by going so gradual. Best of luck.

Hi Girls! Several years ago I was prescribed both Ambien and Xanax at the same time, and yes, I did take them together with no ill effects (small dose of xanax about an hour before taking the ambien- the effects of xanax are immediate... within 15-20 mins and wear off within two-three hours tops).
