#wedorecover 🎉
Im getting ready for my orientation for Peer Support Specialist where I'll get the info for financial aide the classes and the exam I'm so very excited cause I've been through trauma, PTSD due to physical abuse done to me and the mind games. severe anxiety, the deaths of both my son's watching them pass. Away. The drugs I battled for along time, the alcoholism I conquered everything and survived plus was homeless 4 different times. I have alot to offer as in support and I know I can point someone in the right direction offering positive choices in a way that it's not me telling someone what to do but offering different steps to try out for their journey of hope.
My name is Kelly Rice thanks for these informative cideos
Please come and pick me up lm safe and not wanting to hurt myself or others l have no gas or medication
Thank you for sharing your battle. May God give you inner peace. Semper Fidelis, comrade.
So great to hear Shane's voice!
Please help me. Mental abuse.
She should be charged with crimes against humanity.
My son has schizophrenia and he did get vaccinated however, I have never seen him so delusional. His symptoms have increased since his vaccinations
Same thing with my daughter two doses of Pfizer she has ASD comorbid with OCD PTSD and depression she has become worse since she's gotten the vaccine. I begged her not to because I knew. And the reason she has autism is because of a vaccine I don't care how much they lie I seen it with my own eyes. Her dad talked her into getting the Pfizer two of them my pleading fell on deaf ears. She's worse now. These people lie so much it makes me sick to my stomach.
Same here both of twins are too. Since getting the vaccine they both haven’t been the same.
My Opinion this County of Lauderdale, Meridian Mississippi has the most racist officers on the force in this country !!!! Including him in this video
This is a growing concern for new clinics and clinics that has been in operation more than three years. Particularly, in my area, why fewer clinics does not provide services to truck drivers? Truck drivers need to get their physicals to obtain commercial driving licenses. Veterans facilities are plentiful, yet the State fail to meet the criteria that can further their mental health issues. We are desperately looking for ways to dissolve this problem for every health care facility. We hope that this will be your goal in speaking to the authorities of The Miss. State Board on behalf of this concern.
How sad, you can't even be of help to those you say you serve because you can't see through the lies. Big pharma has probably poisoned more people than big pychiatry. You people try to medicate the brain when the soul is the issue shame on your ignorance. Get born again and stop propagating lies
You people have no idea what you dealing with it's just a hole lot of people making money off this vaccine selling false hope.🤣🤣🤣🤣 to dummies who can't think for them selves a scared public will fall for anything. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
NO
Let's go Brandon!!!!!!!!
Probably because they aren’t treated equally by healthcare professionals. I see it every day in my career.
The goverments are the loonys
Could it be all the toxic medications they are on? ? ? ?
The more toxic you are the more imunne system deficiency you will encounter. Check out the toxic substances involved within the childhood vaccination schedule. Eye opening and im glad i never had children to put them through that toxic mix.
That to.
Most people who put their faith in the vaccine have a serious mental illness
The CDC says 79% of those contracting Omicron are double vaxxed. Hahahaha! Fact check it.
This is the first time I have heard Covid looked at from this perspective. I have new respect for your state and people!
Reason #8,078 not to get the vaccine.
People with mental issues you mean the government and all the mad Dr pushing for normal sane people to take this crap
I have adhd, bipolar, mood disorder, and major depression. I am planning to get the covid vaccine, but i am honestly so scared of the outcome afterwards. I am afraid if it will worsen my mental disorders because its already bad as it is for me on focusing,concentration, and am still in depression state.what are your thoughts? I been searching and can not find any info about this.
I'm worried about the same thing. I'm getting the vaccine in a few hours and I have undiagnosed childhood trauma that is affecting my daily life because of triggers and depression. I'm totally lost on what to expect when I get the vaccine. Did you find anything?
I deal with the same issues. If you are in doubt my opinion is to delay taking the shot until more information becomes available. That is what I am doing. If your gut is telling you not to have the shot then do not take it. Your gut feelings are always right. Just my opinion. Peace.
Same here.
SMOKE weed
not to be smart but how could it possibly worsen them?
I'm currently considering senior practicum placement in a PACT program and this video has been very informative, thank you.
So proud of you & how you’ve turned your life around & helping others!
