"He told me that it was not my time to enter into my heavenly home but had a mission to fulfill and my life was going to be very hard. That I would go through many terrible experiences to the point of wanting to commit suicide but if I committed suicide I would not be allowed to come home. He told me that I would be watched over and protected, kept safe. If I would get through this mission I would be allowed to return home. -- Don C Then I noticed I was in a tunnel & moving toward a bright light. When suddenly a voice told me, "Its not your time, you must go back, you haven't completed your missions & purposes in life, yet". -- Shalom G
"The light told me without words that I still on a mission on earth, but without saying what it was" -- Guillem BC **
"My three angels, still perplexed as to how to get me back to my body - did not like my response of, "I don't want to go back down there; it is painful". "You Must! Your Mission is Not Yet Complete!". -- Mark
"This is when I was called, and returned to the blue place in which I started, where the Angel Gabriel said to me: "Miguel, you have to go back, there is a mission for you to accomplish". I said to him: "No, brother, I'm not going back, I'm here now and I'm not about to move from here, I'm not leaving". He said, "You have a wife and children". I replied that I did not remember them, and he made a gesture with his hand, and a seated woman appeared, on a kind of white chair, praying and weeping, holding my diary in her hands. I drew near, saw her and said to the Angel: "Now I remember her, she is my wife". He asked me if I wanted to see my children, and I said yes. With another gesture of the hands he took me to a really poor district, with unpaved streets and mud. I was taken near a bus-stop, where there were grey concret storm-drains. We came to a house under construction, or unfinished. The floor was of earth, the walls had no covering (without any finish), the bath also half finished and on the patio there were two children playing, covered in mud. Following another gesture, I approached them and could see that yes, I recognized them, they were my children. The angel said, "You have to go back", to which I replied, "No way, now that I'm here, I'm not going back there". I said, "What if the next time I don't end up in this place, better to stay for good, no point getting here if I'm going to leave". At this moment I heard a strong, loud voice, speaking in a very special way, with love, affection but also with authority, which said to me: "Miguel, you must go back". I looked all around me, up, down, left and right, but no one had spoken to me. Then I asked "Who is speaking to me?" And I again heard this voice saying to me, "I am the true and faithful witness, you have to go back". I said, "Jesus?" and he answered, "Yes, you must go back". I said, "I'm ready, Lord. Thy will be done". -- Miguel RP
"The light being said, 'No, you have a mission that you must do.' I didn't know what the mission was but I said 'Yes' to returning back to the earth". -- Steve L
"I look back and see that entity, calm, faceless, with womanly ways, who tells me: “Wait, what are you doing? You can’t decide yourself the time when you leave, you have a mission to fulfill, no way they will let you leave that world this way. You have to go back and do what you have to do.” “Never,” did I answer, “never shall I go back. And you won’t change my mind, who are you to tell me what I have to do? What is this mission or purpose you are talking about?” “Just follow me.” did she say insistently but with a softness to which the most precious silk in this world does not compare..."But what mission are you talking about? I don’t understand anything to what you are saying, I don’t want to go back there. This loneliness is too deep and agonizing! You are going to answer, tell me what this mission is, who you are, who am I?” A voice outmatching the meeting group instantly settled the matter, no one would have even wanted or thought of whispering or sighing, “You’ll understand in due time, no answer would content you. Let time act, be strong, don’t doubt and you will know. Answers will be given in due time, it is up to you to capture them. Nothing is given for free to the knowledge keys keeper.” -- Pascal C
"The gate itself was unremarkable, no pearls or anything like that. Two robed men were speaking to each other. They never addressed or looked directly at me, but they were discussing me. I knew the two men were St. Peter and St. Gabriel. I could not hear their entire conversation but I knew they were discussing whether it was my time to be admitted to heaven. St. Gabriel was telling St. Peter that I had not read The Gospel of Mark yet. St. Gabriel was holding a huge open book I assumed to be a Bible and they looked at it. It seemed as if Gabriel was convincing Peter I could not enter heaven yet but at the same time I knew St. Peter didn't want to let me in at that time. I was just an observer. They never looked at me and I did not interact with them. I woke up back in my body in the emergency room after I heard that I needed to read Mark. ....That one sentence St. Gabriel spoke, "But she hasn't read The Gospel of Mark" seemed not only to be very very clear words but a strong feeling accompanied his words. It is hard to explain." -- Trish R
"She told me that my mission here upon the earth was not completed, and I would have to go back she informed me. I protested and begged to stay where she was, but to no avail. She did say I would be allowed to stay the next time I came there. Not that I could or would stay but she used the word "allowed." Immediately after she had placed these things into my mind I was sent back". -- Sylvia R
"The third time, I really didn't want to come back and then my Dad met me. He told me that he didn't raise a quitter, and that I needed to go back - that I had a mission that most people would never be given the opportunity to be blessed with. At the same time, on this side, I heard a man that I loved dearly tell me "please don't leave me". I heard him as plain as day. His voice was very clear. I chose to come back at that point". -- Pamela B

This will probably get buried and flamed to oblivion, but I remember a long ass time ago when I had anxiety on a daily. At first, when it was happening, I kinda shook myself away from it and it worked for a time. Kinda snapped myself out of it by talking sense into myself. I brushed it off because I didn't want to let anyone know, including my doctor, and tried to cope with it alone. That was stupid because it only got worse and after leaving it untreated, it had its foot on my back. Id wake up gasping for air because idk why, I felt like I was dying. At any given moment those creeping thoughts set in that tell you "you're about to die" and your body naturally responds by going into Fight Flight.
And I went from this complete extrovert to a closed off recluse because I was always afraid that an anxiety episode would come over me in public and I didn't want to embarass myself. My ego was bigger than my dick. I would even put myself to sleep as soon as it went dark (7:00ish PM) just so I wouldn't have to be up later at night because that's when the shitty type of anxiety sets in. Its 2:40AM and there's nobody around to talk you down, the "party" is over, all your friends and family are snoring at their homes, and you're wide awake, feeling crazy for even thinking about calling your friends so damn late and you don't want to dial 911 for the 12th time because they already look at you like you're nuts.
A perpetual state of mental anxiousness, fear, googling, confirmation of fears through bullshit SEO tactics, the body reacts, the mind is reinforced and round and round we go.
DONT GOOGLE YOUR SYMPTOMS! Spoiler alert: "you're already dead"
You can be on top of the world and none of that really helps us escape that mental trap. Yes, its in the head but the head controls the body(i did that thing they do in movies here) and because of that, sometimes we physically have to check out. That means no talking, no streaming, no social bullshit. Just a space to decompress and collect ourselves and that's cool.
What helped me was talking more about it. IDC if I got flamed, the more I spoke on it, the less power those thoughts had and now, I cant remember the last time I had an attack, but the fear of one is always there. Sorry for the Wall O' Text.
I hope this reaches people.
​
Peace.

People like to treat Death can shapeshift based on the fears of whomever he's hunting down theory as canon it's not! Puss isn't even afraid of canids hangs out with the literal Big Bad Wolf from Little Red Riding Hood, fought Bloodwolf in the animated series who's the literal embodiment of fear itself and lost his second life by gambling with dogs. His real greatest fear is commitment hence running away from marrying Kitty. Death would look like a biblically accurate angel wedding ring if he only took the physical form of peoples greatest fears. The real reason why Death is a wolf is because wolves/caninds are often a metaphor for death/dead in many mythologies for example Anubis from Egyptian mythology, Fenrir, Skoll and Hati from Norse mythology. Death as a wolf just feels iconic and if he ever returns in future media he would lose everything that makes him iconic he's terrifying for a reason not to strike fear and dread into Puss In Boots but into the audience because death and mortality is a terrifying concept everyone will inevitably face.

Hi,
We will be flying from Sicily Catania airport to Rome FCO (on Ryanair) and then have a flight to catch that leaves at 3:00pm from FCO to USA.
Our two options from Sicily will get us into Rome FCO at 9:55 am or 13:05(1:05pm). We will have checked bags.
If we take the flight from Sicily to FCO that gets us to FCO at 1:05pm, are we able to get our luggage and re-check it to make our flight to the USA that leaves at 3:00 or not? Also will we have to go through customs?
Any help appreciaed.

My GF (22F) an international student and I (22M) got into it today on the phone. My Mom and I took her stuff and mine from our college campus and drove back here to Chicago where we let her stay and store her stuff here. She told us that sh'd come back around early July to take it. Now, she's asking me to ship her stuff to her and she'll pay me for it. My issue is that she told us multiple times that she'd come down to pick it up. So, I'm like wtf why are u gonna just leave me and my Mom with your stuff like that out of the blue?
So, when asking me If I could ship her stuff and I said no I'd feel uncomfortable because she had claimed so many times that she'd pick it up. Her excuse was that she couldn't currently afford to fly from NY to CHI in a round trip at the moment. Her stuff is still here and was giving me crap for not doing it claiming that we've been together for so long but I personally feel like my time and my Mom's was disrespected. Am I in the wrong for not wanting to send it to her stuff to NY when she initially told us something different? I think this is very disrespectful on her part, but she was extremely sorry, but I ain't buying it.
TL;DR GF of 4 years changed her mind about coming down to get her stuff from my Mom and I's house because it's financially hard for her as an international student to afford another round flight from NY to CHI now and I refuse to ship her stuff based on the initial plan she told me

Hi, I was trying to book flight from Dallas to Delhi and Vice versa for December - January winter break. I found this thing amazing on telegram, that some flight or travel agents dmed me giving the same flight ticket at almost 50% discount. Can someone please help me if they experienced the same thing and found reason like how is it possible?
So flight to Delhi from Dallas was costing around 900$ on official flight website while agent quoted me around 450$ price.

I saw a post saying that the chorus referencing Chelsea Smile... but also Verse 2's first line is "Someone call an exorcist" like in the same place Anthem when he's looking for someone to kill a curse...
Lil Uzi Vert at the end of Verse 2 also mentions being "his own worst enemy" which is reminiscent of LosT, from the same album...
The song also mentions witches frame one... which reminds me of the "a witch hunt for an exit" line from Hospital for Souls... not a major callback... or, in fact, one at all... but I noticed it..

Feel free to make reasonable offers!

And how much of a fool the protagonist of Diablo 3 was.
If they would just listen to Zoltun Kulle everything would be so much better. They would destroy the Heaven and the Hell and Sanctuary would be so much better off. Sure, Zoltun wanted to rule, but that could be solved later between the protagonist and him, and even if the protagonist decided to join Zoltun and rule over the people of Sanctuary, that would not come even close to the perils people of Sanctuary suffer from angels and demons.
Diablo 3 protagonist is the sole reason everyone is currently in the shit that they are in. I know there would be no Diablo 4 plot in case they acted differently, but I'm just saying.

Age: 23. Sex: Male. Height: 5"8. Weight:125 pounds. Duration of Complaint: 3 years. Medication: Auvelity and Geodon.
For the past 3 years I've been dealing with Emotional Numbness and Sexual Dysfunction that all began after an intense and chronic episode of stress, depression, and anxiety. My body and brain was constantly in fight or flight mode and then one day all of a sudden everything just seemed to shut down and things haven't been the same since.
Regarding the Sexual Dysfunction, I have Erectile Dysfunction. My erection quality has significantly diminished. I no longer wake up in the morning with an erection, I can't get an erection or maintain one, and I don't get random erections anymore.
My sex drive is also gone. I used to have a very high sex drive. I no longer feel sexual attraction, desire, thoughts, etc. I no longer have an urge to have sex or even masturbate.
I've also noticed that I have reduced sensation to my penis. When I try to stimulate it, it just feels dead.
With the Emotional Numbness, my emotions are severely blunted. I can't feel arousal, I can't feel adrenaline, I can't laugh like I used to, I can't feel euphoria, etc. I also can no longer feel stress hormones. I can no longer feel the sensation of my heart beating out of my chest when I am in adrenaline inducing sensations.
The Emotional Blunting and the Sexual Dysfunction have been the most bothersome symptoms, but other symptoms I have noticed in addition to this are: I don't have an appetite, I have muscle tension, and I also have brain fog/head pressure.
I believe that episode of intense stress, anxiety, and depression caused inflammation to my brain and body that has been difficult to reverse.
I've had my Hormones checked via blood. My Cortisol in the morning was pretty elevated. I had an ACTH Stimulation Test done, but it actually revealed my Cortisol was a bit lower than it should be. My Endocrinologist had me take Hydrocortisone for 8 weeks, but I felt no difference.
I also had an MRI of my Brain and Pituitary Gland and both were normal.
I am currently seeing a Functional Medicine Doctor and he ordered further testing including a Cortisol Saliva Test and a 24 Hour Dried Urine Test.

His Nurse Practitioner ordered other blood tests for further investigation and accuracy including:
• CBC and differential • Vitamin A and Metabolite • Hemoglobin A1c • Estradiol • Cortisol • Free Testosterone Evaluation • Pregnenolone • DHEAS • Dihydrotestosterone • Basic Metabolic Profile • Lipid Profile
The Nurse Practitioner gave me three supplement recommendations:
1) OmegaGenics® EPA-DHA 1000 (60 Softgels) (Metagenics): Please take 1 gel, once / day.
2) Vitamin D3 2500iu (100 Softgels) (Jarrow Formulas): Please take 1 gel, once / day.
3) B6/B1 Plus Zinc (90 capsules) (Biotics Research): Please take 1 capsule, once / day.
I am also currently seeing a Psychiatrist. I've tried Wellbutrin starting at 150MG, then 300MG, and then 400MG to no avail. I then tried Rexulti along with the Wellbutrin and it didn't help. I then tried Trintellix and that didn't help. He put me on Auvelity for 8 weeks and I felt no difference. He is currently having me take a low dose of Geodon along with the Auvelity for the last 4 weeks. So far not much of a difference.
This is where I stand right now. I am still investigating and working with my Psychiatrist as well as my Functional Medicine Practitioner.
I just wanted to know what do you guys think about my test results as it correlates with my symptoms?

Hi all,
My wife and I are going to Cuba in July with 2 friends . I wanted to share my itinerary with this group for thoughts and a few questions/thoughts!
​

• Day 1 (Wednesday)- Land in Havana (around 1500), move to Vinales
• Day 2 (Thursday) - Vinales Valley tour (Horseback riding, tobacco tour, etc) during the day. Afternoon walk through the town of Vinales
• Day 3 (Friday) - TBD, either another day in the valley (potentially visit Cuevo De Santa Tomas, or go ziplining in the valley) and head to Havana in the afternoon or head to Havana in the morning and spend the day in Havana. At night- explore banightclub scene in the vedado area (we are staying there)
• Day 4 (Saturday)- Morning: Vedado walking tour, Mojito Making Class, and in the evening go to Fabrique De Arte
• Day 5 (Sunday)- Tour Old Havana + El Morro
• Day 6 (Monday)- Vintage car tour, potentially find a salsa class, Dinner at La Guarida
• Day 7 (Tuesday)- Move to varadero in the morning; we are staying in a casa particular near the town; likely will explore the town or spend the afternoon on the beach on this day
• Day 8 (Wednesday)- Catamaran tour to Cayo Blanco with snorkeling
• Day 9 (Thursday)- beach day
• Day 10 (Friday)- Head back to Havana in the morning and leave cuba (flight leaves at 1630)

​
A few questions on the above!

• Transportation- what's the easiest options to get to/from Vinales and to/from Varadero? What should we expect to pay? Sounds like if you book a bus you have to do it in advance, and it ends up not being much cheaper than a taxi, especially since there are 4 of us. FYI, My casa particular host quoted us $25 per person per way for the taxi to/from Vinales
• Any opinions on whether we should spend another 1/2 day in Vinales to see the Caves / do something else, or would that time be better spent in Havana?
• I know some latin american countries have very little going on on sundays. Should we expect any issues with Havana shops/restaurants/etc being closed on the Sunday we are there?
• Cuban SIM Card- is it worth buying a Cuban SIM card? I've heard that there are tourist versions of the SIM now but that they are expensive relative to just paying for the internet cards.
• Will any of the touristy style events that I listed in the itinerary need to be booked in advance? Or will we be able to book once there?
• Any big issues with the above itinerary? i.e. travel times that aren't realistic, etc?
• Any of the things I don't have planned in the three places mentioned that you would say are "must do's"? Note we don't plan on adding more destinations given we want to take our time a bit and not feel rushed going from town to town

For context on booking things in advance, My wife is Mexican and one of the other couple coming with us is Bolivian, so we don't anticipate any issues with language barriers. Also my bolivian friend loves to haggle/negotiate, so I think unless its cheaper to book things in advance or if we are at risk of not being able to find what we need/want to do, we'd prefer to book in Cuba.

Hi all.
So I know, that I'm all so bubbly, sweet, caring and loving but it hurts when a part of your family goes to heaven. It hurts, hurts, hurts and hurts. It will always do because it's not a pain we're ready for and it takes weeks, months or years for most to move on. I've lost a soul, a smile, a love, a hug...a beautiful angel that is now gone to a better place, somewhere quiet, filled with all these lovely memories. No one prepares you for this pain, but I now know true angels do exist, you just have to believe in their sparkle.
So my beloved grandma, I may have never gotten the chance to say goodbye to you so I'll say it now:
🕊️goodbye to a wonderful soul that loves others no matter how they are as human beings..
🕊️goodbye to an angel that never had wings but always pretended to do so to hide me from her pain goodbye to a smile so contagious that always left others feeling loved...
🕊️goodbye to someone who never let me cry when I was dealing with pain because that would tear her world apart...
🕊️goodbye to your wonderful but beloved hugs whenever we came to visit you...
🕊️goodbye to an awesome role model as a teacher...
🕊️goodbye to someone that meant my whole universe to me...
🕊️ goodbye to the best grandma I've ever had
Although I'm saying goodbye now, it's not forever and it never will be. Thank you for making me be the strongest, powerful, loving, inspirational, understanding, appreciative and passionate for languages. I'm proud to carry on this legacy and always have you there watching over me. Rest in piece beautiful heart, I'll always miss you.💐🕊️
PS: To everyone going through this, know you're not alone and I know it's hurtful but life never prepares us for the people we lose. We just do and it's a pain that's unforgiving, but I know you can do this. If not, I'm always here as a text message away. Keep fighting you bundles of joy, you got this!💕💐

I'm hoping to get some recommendations on any books, workbooks, podcasts, online courses, etc that is intended for couples and has been legitimately helpful to you. In an ideal world, we'd get right into couples counseling. But since insurance doesn't cover that, and we've already had to make financial sacrifices to both keep our individual therapy going, its just not a feasible option right now. That's still eventually the goal as I know a book can't solve everything, but I'm thinking it could be a low cost option to get some tips and strategies for now. Its just hard to know from the huge amount of relationship advice content where to even start.

Any and all suggestions are welcome, but I'll also be more specific on the particular issues we're having. TDLR below. We're GF and BF, living together, in our 30s. We need help figuring out how to communicate with each other when there's a conflict, and stop the stupid fights. I want to immediately emphasize that the relationship isn't abusive in any way- there's no violence, manipulation, threats, or even name calling. But a disagreement can tip over into a heated discussion, to yelling, to storming off and not talking for the rest of the night, to come back the next day and both apologize for how stupid we were. We both have anxiety and past traumas, so I think the issue is that when a discussion turns into a heated one, we both get triggered and go into a fight or flight mode and we're not thinking rationally anymore. So a fight can be about the big things, but it can also be due to embarrassingly little things that are not worth fighting about. It doesn't happen very often, but when it does its so draining and pointless that I would like it to never happen again. We both hate that we do this but it doesn't seem like we can figure out how to fix it on our own. We certainly didn't see any examples of healthy conflict resolution from our parents growing up, I'm sure he would agree.
​
​
TLDR: Need material that addresses communicating effectively and healthy conflict resolution. But any suggestions on resources that have helped your relationship are welcome.

I want to come to Belgrade but I have a problem. My return flight is at 7 am, but I don't know how to get to the airport from the city center at that time. I would be very grateful if someone could help with this.

Желим да дођем у Београд, али имам проблем. Повратни лет ми је у 7 ујутро, али у то време не знам како да стигнем до аеродрома из центра града. Био бих веома захвалан ако би неко могао да помогне око овога.
