I just wanted to say that when I first read of Kittyās plight at the top of the page, anyone could see that she had already exhausted all previous medical advice and treatment available to her.
Sometimes people come here with real life problems and suffering when solutions have not been met elsewhere. The depth of knowledge and willingness to help showed by @Yberion and @emperor were again outstanding. A testament to how great this forum can be for sure.
And Emperor, where you said:
Well I would like to say that both Emperor and Yberioth should be applauded. And again, @Lady_Eva for coming to help someone in distress.
@ambercatgoddess knew the background of her problem and was clear in her following posts to that of her physical suffering. Clearly, she knew what she was up against (non effective doctors and health specialists) and showed that she has the intelligence to be discerning in choosing any possible forthcoming suggestions or advice here.
The suggestions she received were specific to the OP and no one told her that she or anyone else had to use it. Self care caveats were already given and It was all opinion for further reading.
And yet Yberioth and Emperor both felt obliged to give apologies/explanations after they gave such fantastic and deeply learned suggestions??
Apologies? Why and for what? Some hint that they might be seen as giving medical instruction? Well there was no medical instruction here. Other than ā¦ to go to see a doctorā¦ to check vitamin levels!
Or was it that someone might read what they wrote, misunderstand it and do themselves some damage? People can do themselves harm from reading a do-it-yourself manual or a cookery book even.
Ease up on on the public health condemnations/warnings. Please. It can potentially put others off of contributing what could be the very thing that helps the request.
Well this is, after all, an occult forum where all kinds of weird/non standard stuff is spoken about. Hail Balg !!
Yes some people can do themselves - and others, some real harm with what is found in these pages but that seems to be ok until suggestions are made that might overlap a doctorās advice.
Then what ā¦ the decency police turn up to tell you to put your shirt back on, you canāt be showing any of that around here.
āBut officer, thereās someone over there talking about all kinds of substances people take to see Demons and visit other worlds and they might not make it back. The doctor wonāt like that.ā ā¦
āYeah, no, thatās alright. Just donāt talk about vitamins. Or lightbulbs. Stuff like that could freak people out.ā Lol.
My point is this.
Ambercatgoddess came here with a real request because of lifelong pain.
The advice and suggestions she received were, to me, quite amazing.
The depth of knowledge in those answers would have taken books and books and books and lifetimes of work to have come to an answer.
I had nothing practical to offer her but I did have a good idea of who could see into her situation.
I didnāt know if they would see her post on their own perusals or not so I thought for her sake I should prompt them anyway just in case.
After reading Yberioth and Emperorās replies, I realised just how much work, effort and time it must have taken them to think of her situation and prepare their replies.
They took time away from what they were dealing with in their own lives to help someone they didnāt even know. They didnāt just fire off a quick reply. They took it to heart and did something big and that I think is highly commendable.
What is a shame though, is that sometimes common sense doesnāt get in there first and stop the decency police from making, at times unnecessary āaccusations of medical adviceā. Iām not aiming that at anyone in particular, it happens on lots of threads by lots of individuals. Letās just say that itās an energy that anyone can have to make them jump in to give an open public warning.
And I know that it comes from a place of safeguarding the forum and itās users, but ā¦
If someone comes to the forum asking for opinions or solutions and some kindly person takes the time to share what they feel could help with caveats as a given, then why not let that be the focus rather than it being feared?
Honestly. Yberiothās reply was full of good intention and good, deep intellect that the OP may never have found elsewhere and therefor, if he, and Emperor had not responded due āthe decency police being around the cornerā then Ambercatgoddess could well have been stuck with ā¦
Haha. I Laughed Out Loud when I read that too
