Janet. I think we serve the same God. He is my rock and my salvation. I have two wonderful people coming tonight who pray beautifully. Thank you for the good wishes.

Jude - I am truly sorry to learn about Dave. Your question was on stress and TM and how it affects one. I have found that any, repeat, any amount of stress sends me up and over the edge, around the bend, bonkers, psycho, or whatever you wish to call it. In November I deliberately stopped all meds cold turkey (yes, I know, bad idea) - after about a week I knew I would live. I have the same pain level now as I did when I was taking effexor, welbutrin, quetiapine, lyrica, oxycontin, and flexeril. At this point I am only taking oxy at night to cope with the pain so I can sleep - except tonight it isn't working so I added some Lyrica. Yesterday and today were stressful days for me, plus my roommate is giving me grey hair. lol. So for me - a little stress is as detrimental as a lot. May you and yours find your way through this dark night of the soul, and I love what Dalton said to you: "Is there any Remover of Difficulties save God? Say: Praised be God! He is God! All are His servants and all abide by His bidding." May the God you worship remove your difficulties. Janet
