Re: Anxiety and Depression

Go to therapy with your wife. Sister Ryder and I did 15 weeks and came out better able to communicate. We don’t always agree but we’ve learned to communicate and set our boundaries. At the beginning of this faith transition mess, I was afraid we’d be divorced. Had little kids. Now I’m afraid we won...

Re: Anxiety and Depression

I’ll put in the plug for exercise, sleep, and trying to eat healthy. Talking to your doctor is also a perfect solution. Taking a break from Mormonism is highly recommended too. Both chapel and internet Mormonism. Take care of yourself first. I like the break from mormonism. I'll have to see if my D...

Re: Anxiety and Depression

Yes, there's great medications that can help you with your depression and/or anxiety. Find a Dr. That's not scared to write a prescription for Xanax, see if that helps your anxiety. Some of the newer anti depressants are really good but watch out for side effects. I spent a good portion of my life ...

Re: Anxiety and Depression

I am sure that many if not all of us on here have gone through a faith transition. Has anyone experienced anxiety and/or depression because of this? For example, it is triggering sometimes when I have to endure my wife's tbm beliefs and her orthodox ways with the kids; also it is sad for me to thin...

Re: 17 new temples?

I'm an East Coast guy, what am I not understanding? We've had a lot of Utah Mormons move here where I live, usually in the military and I've never heard one person say they hated living there. Utah net migration for 2021 was 35,000 compared to population drops in California, New York and Illinois. ...

Re: 17 new temples?

Hey Mike, perhaps you could send a link you your happiest statistics? I’ve read articles that report high use of anti depressants, suicides, and pharmaceutical prescription drug abuse among Mormons. Mormon prosperity can also be questioned as high debts and bankruptcy are common among Utah Mormons....

Re: 17 new temples?

Why do you care if the church builds temples? I care about this: https://i.redd.it/w3au4ih0qer81.png I care that a man who pretends to be a prophet of God loads up credulous people with an unnecessary burden. I care that this seems to be a showing of vain glory for one man to gain praise and to out...

Re: 17 new temples?

A spokesman for the church said on the news that they are accelerating the rate of temple building to keep up with the church's rapid growth. https://c.tenor.com/UsxDt3pIYPoAAAAC/crazy-pills-will-ferrell.gif How many announced temples have not even broken ground yet? I feel bad for the next guy who...

Hey Mike, just read your response to John Williams over at Mormon D&D and I really appreciate you for it.
Your welcome, what did I say? :D By the way, this is a new account, couldn't access my old one.
