Question

I will put this question to a vote.

Answer 1

while watching a thunder storm we (my daughter and i) saw a house get hit by lightning and catch fire. went over to it and discovered a women and all her pets still inside, unaware her 2nd floor was ablaze. we got her and all her cats,dogs, turtle, lizards, birds and rodents out of there just before the roof came down. turned out she lived across the hall from me some17 years prior. small world!!

Answer 2

Yes, same here. I don't know if they ONLY help people with "minor problems", as someone else has said. I knew a girl that had Major Depression, and had tried to kill herself. She was prescribed something, and felt much better after that (though I'm sure not all the credit is given to the pills). Unfortunately, it's not like this for everyone. Not everyone gets better with their "miracle pill". Maybe ask your psychiatrist about mood stabilizers. I had taken Zoloft and Lexapro, and thought they made the moods worse. My psychiatrist prescribed me then the mood stabilizer Depakote, and though it seemed to do alright, I had bad side effects. I changed and started Lamictal, and that really did some good, especially in the beginning. I felt that the "good feelings" were enhanced when I was on combo of Lamictal and Abilify (keep in mind, Abilify is an antipsychotic - I don't know exactly what you are going through, but the mood stabilizer + antipsychotic is what helped my moods the most....may or may not help you). Personally, I don't think medications do all the work. Sometimes the effects seem to wear off, perhaps due to your body getting used to it. There does have to be some sort of motivation to keep yourself going and alive during this time of your life. There has to be a desire to get better, and this goes for anyone, with almost any condition. I've found that excersize (ugh, yes, I know) has helped my mood some. It isn't the cure, unless perhaps your symptoms aren't so severe. It depends on how you feel. When it comes to psychiatric medication, it often feels like the process is "Guess and Check". My psychiatrist is still trying to find a medication that will help me. At this point, I honestly wonder if she's guessing. Just make sure you let your doctor know that they are making you worse. Call him or her up, and explain that you want to get off of them. If you've been on the antidepressant for a while, and it isn't helping any, it's not worth staying on the medication. It's not worth the crappy feeling it brings. It's just a pill.

Answer 3

Today morning, when was taking bath, an ant came in between the water stream. I gently picked it up and safely placed it on a dry place. This is how I saved a life recently other than a lot of other realities.

Answer 4

While working my shift as a lifeguard at a municipal pool, I pulled a kid off the bottom of the deep-end after he had hit his head on the diving board. He had a 3 inch gash on the back of his head and was unconscious. Fortunately, he started breathing on his own before I could start resuscitation.

Brief enough?

Answer 5

My best friend and I (who were in 2nd grade at the time) were walking home from school. We were getting ready to cross the street, she was talking and not paying attention and started to step off the curb. A car came speeding down the street heading right for her, I grabbed the back of her shirt and pulled her back, she fell down and at first was really pissed at me but when she saw the car she thanked me. My heart was pounding so hard! I got mad at her and lectured her (as good as a 2nd grader can) on always looking before you cross the street. After we crossed the street safely, life went on as normal. :-)

Answer 6

When I was 27 I met a girl at the bar and we use to dance and party. She was living with a guy I knew who I thought was an OK guy. I found out they were partying with really bad drugs and he forced her to steal and there is more. I told her over and over that she was better than that and she had to get away from him. She did and now she is happily married and has A little girl.

Answer 7

yes. saved an car accident victim.... took him to nearest hospital, which happened to be a military hosp. Contacted his relatives to visit the hospital and take it further on. Funny thing, till date I don't know how his accident happened. Have spoken to him couple of time post his accident but never asked what exactly happened on that day.

Answer 8

I saved two people's lives and it involves only one story: I gave birth instead of taking the easy way out (physically not emotionally).

Answer 9

Yes, I have saved the life of an ant!
I was ready to drown in the water and I saved it!
LOL
