- writtenDue to my medication change, I am finding it hard to concentrate on much of anything right now. So, I don't know how much help I will be at the moment. However, if I understand, you are asking about which translation would be the better/best...
This chart may help. Personally I use the NRSV and NIV most often.

As I understand it, the stockpiling of TP started in Australia. In Australia their TP is made in China. And when China started shutting down the borders, they started to grab what they could because there was the chance that there wouldn't be more for a while. Then the people visiting Australia brought the idea home that this virus means needing TP, and it snowballed from there.
In Canada and the USA, there is no need to stockpile TP. And as Aeolian has said, worst case scenario there is lots out there to wipe with.
- writtenI can honestly say that I don't know what caused my depression. I have had it for so long that I had it for many years without being diagnosed.
Was it caused because of a shitty life? Quite possibly. Could it also have been caused by eating unhealthy? Also a possibility. I could continue with a list a mile long on what the cause could be.
Quite frankly what the cause was is irrelevant. What I am trying to do now, is move past it.

I believe that's normal. That should be normal.
I think if folks weren't so apathetic we'd all have "depression"
Life sucks. Psychologists just want you to think it's somehow unique to you.
Over 30% of the global population 'has depression'
Why can't we just admit that it's because life sucks? And most of the time life sucks, because of other people. So "depression" is really just realizing that life sucks - that it's full of dumb f*cks that only make it worse because they let their psyc docs talk them into thinking that accepting BULLSHIT is actually supposed to be normal.
Focus on what would make you happy and demand it. If you don't get it, be mad at other people. You're not broken. It's not normal to accept everyone's bullshit and excuses as your life. It's not. And so many of us have done it.We're not mentally disordered at all. These psycho dicks are so wrapped up in their cognitive dissonance thinking being angry or sad about some total bullshit is somehow a mental disease.
The truth is more likely to be:
You're surrounded by a bunch of bullsh*t. People or circumstances are unfair. You feel the stress, strife and sadness of those people or circumstances being full of bullsh*t.
You don't have depression. You're just being ******fucked by life.
If there were a way to eliminate the bullsh*t - the abnormalities of your life they want you to make normal - you wouldn't be depressed I promise.
It's not some weird "mental disorder's" fault that you think your life sucks. Your life sucks, all our lives suck, and it's not a mental disorder friend, they made that ****shit up.The fact is our lives suck. A made up mental disease didn't make that happen. This species made that happen. And then made up a mental disease and claim you have it. BULLSH*T!
Stop blaming your brain. Your brain is calling bullshit when it sees it. Your brain is fine. Blame the bullshit and the piece of ****shit PEOPLE that cause it.If this is true, how do you explain the fact that taking medications can and does change the way people with depression feel? And can change it so that they feel 'normal'?
Also how do you explain the difference in MRI, CT, and other brain scans between depressed people and those who are not?
By your argument then our brains revert to a 'normal' state when sleeping, and become depressed when we wake. However, brain scans show that is false.Perhaps for you, you have not found a treatment that works for your depression. That doesn't mean that you should belittle others who are still trying to find what works for them.
I'll be honest with you, I am open to being completely wrong here. But NEVER have I seen anyone take anti-depressants or anti-psychotics and have told me it fixed their bad feelings. NEVER NOT ONCE! And ALLLLLLLL my friends and everyone I know is suffering from "depression." (including me, life long)
Well we're all part of the same system of government. I know that for a fact. And while even psychologists have sat there and told me to my face this is all theory. Which would you rather bet on? The facts or the theories?
Sure the pills might make them feel better. But take them away and life still sucks. They'll get depressed again.If you made it so their life didn't suck though, they wouldn't need a pill to make them feel better. Their life just wouldn't suck anymore and they wouldn't be as depressed.
If depression were real(it is real but I don't accept the standard definitions), then you could get depressed and murder someone and not be held accountable. Because you would actually literally not have been in control of yourself when you murdered someone.
If it's a real disorder of the brain then that should be to blame no?
But we don't look at it like that do we.
I think there's a very good reason for that.
When I was on meds, they did help. The biggest thing to remember about meds though is that they are not a cure. They are the means to the end. They bring you to an even level, so that you can learn to cope with the depression.
Perhaps what you are saying is true in part. Perhaps the depression is caused by how shitty life is. The meds, however, allow you to feel 'normal' so that you can learn to deal with that ****shit.
But to say that it doesn't exist, quite frankly, is sheer ignorance. You stated yourself that you suffer from depression. Therefore you know it is real. What causes it is what is in question. Whether it is caused by a chemical imbalance, or because of how shitty life is... well who can say for sure.
As for murdering someone while depressed... I think you are confusing depression with sociopathy or psychopathy. People are still held accountable for their actions. Only in the rare and extreme circumstances are people ill enough to not be held accountable.

I'm not sure how much spare time you have Padre but the fastest way to get negative thoughts out of your head is to volunteer to help someone else. I have a good feeling you could do this without the need of additional medications.
I don't know how much time I would have to volunteer... Between cadets, and the Legion, that takes most of my spare time that have to volunteer.

Often it happens to me this time of year. But I have been trying to get out more... I was out this past weekend camping with the cadets.

I disagree with that.
Everyone feels down from time to time. That is normal. Depression is a constant overwhelming down.

Agreed

I'm sorry you're going through that. Maybe cut back your work a bit and spend more time on a new hobby or with family? Something that keeps your mind busy?
For me to do that now, would be to leave my friend and business partner high and dry... It would be a large betrayal. It likely is something that I should do, but I fear that to do so, would cause as much damage to my mental state as to stay.

Jeb, I used to be the same way (minus the pot)... that was how I ended up in hospital after trying to kill myself.
