I removed my book Glory after the cat on the book cover was killed but I edited it and created Freedom Fighter, but someone said that sounds like you are fighting freedom so I changed the name again. In all of this I changed some of what I wrote in the book Glory. But by this time I realize that so much of what I wrote has now changed. So much of what I wrote was not true because I learned what was true about so many things since writing then.
I was still not processing some things. Some required I look back and remember how
things actually went.
For one, I went to college, like I hear many 18 years olds have and there someone gave me LSD. I then had relapses that were inadequately dealt with by mental health. I got the real victory from a powerful MAN of faith who could put the devil on the run.
From there, years later I was doing fine, but had residual annual effects from the earlier relapses, but nothing dramatic. Both a "friend" and a psycho-atrist convinced me to begin taking medicine. That medicine began to give me side effects. I never had the wisdom to avoid suddenly going off medicine until such time as God caused the miracle of a doctor, incidentally a psychiatrist, not psycho, giving me permission to go off. And then I applied wisdom to a very gradual reduction of medicine, what I never understood before. For one, without a doctor's cooperation I could not easily begin such a process which only led to getting exasperated with side effects and suddenly going off it in my exasperation.
My doctor noticed that much time had passed without what they call "incident" but also realized I had not been on a therapeutic dosage, what they call "therapeutic" all along. Thus medicine was not doing for me what something else was. My doctor realized faith could do quite a lot.
Thus, permission was given. I spent four years reducing dosage to no dosage.
This is one of the truths left out. I don't think we have had mental illness in our family. We have had emotionally vulnerable types of people like my great great grandmother who spent considerable time in the state hospital in our hometown but before we we had moved there. I found out she got epilepsy from her time with a husband who grabbed her on the rebound from her first love, a man who left and never came back because he went to war, it was during the civil war. She also internalized the war. She also was a Kinney and I believe Kinney and Kennedy are the same tribe. My theory is that this tribe violated pagan beliefs with Christianity and it's never forgotten by "neo" pagans. She had so many things against her and this was one of them.
Jesus said epilepsy is caused only by demons. He merely cast out demons to "cure" it
But nothing was known about it at this time. Vincent van gogh also had epilepsy
But it's cause was not known at his time either. Actually he was sort of a contemporary of my great great grandmother. And her family married the Dutch by means of her daughter Cora.
There are other "facts" that I feel got botched so I found the whole "account" not accurate. Now I have no desire to tell my story so I'm not planning to write any other account, unless God has other plans.
