Coulld Julia treat Angelique, if so how would she do it?

[IluvBarnabas]

The craft can be learned in WICCA, however, I am not for sure if you can "learn" to be a witch in the DS world.  Angelique obviously inherited the power from her mother, I believe it was implied??

[spoiler] Actually, we learn she got her powers from Judah Zachery in 1840 when she was Miranda. There has been much debate as to whether or not Angelique was the reincarnation of Miranda. This is kind of tricky because Angelique in 1795 did say it had been her mother who had taught her how to brew the urb tea that she used to cure Sarah. Now either Angelique had no memory of her previous life as Miranda at this point or the writers simply decided to change her history to serve the purpose of her storyline in 1840. You decide. [/spoiler]

I don't know if anything could have cured Angelique from her wanting to practice her voodoo. I will say this for her, she did give it an honest shot to try  to give up her powers during the Leviathan storyline when she was married to Sky Rumson. [spoiler] Unfortunately that was shot to hell once she found out he was a Leviathan and then she started going back to her old tricks by bewitching Maggie and Quentin when she realized Barnabas was becoming interested in Maggie. [/spoiler]

Could anything cure Angelique from wanting to practice witchcraft her or her obsession with Barnabas? I'll be damned if I know.

Slap Therapy... a slap before each meal, hurling of sharp objects followed by a healthful drenching with vinegar at regular intervals, and a weekly baseball bat to the shins.

Well, Mag, that may do the trick with Cassandra, but what about Angelique?

I must point out--vis-a-vis the tea thing--what makes you so sure she wasn't simply lying?

Personally, I think curing Angelique of being a vampire was do-able.

By the last time we saw her, though, she honestly seemed to have turned over a new leaf.  So perhaps there was no need.

I think that Dr Hoffman, as a physician, would definitely do everything within her power to treat Angelique to fullfill her hippocratic(?) oath.  Of course, Angelique would need to seek or if the injury was life threatening Dr Hoffman would treat her no questions asked.

re: tea    one, if she were reincarnated, she's a witch and living in Mariniq

Honestly. How many times has Angelique turned over a new leaf?

[Taeylor Collins]

Too many to count.  If the series had continued I am sure she would have continued to torment Barney.  No one ever lives Happily Ever After on soaps unless they are leaving the show.  And then more times than not history is rewritten and something happend to there Happily Ever After!!

Angelique does not like feeling vulnerable; it seems to always shift back afterwards to a need to kill and destroy lives, so I imagine that any attempt at therapy or treatment by Julia would lead to some very horrific scenes, houses burning down, curses, nightmares, compulsive seductions of innocent young men.

No way can Julia cure Angelique of her witchcraft, not with medication. Maybe Julia can help Angelique with anti-depressents like zoloft or prozac to help her to get over and move on from Barnabas.

[Willie Loomis]

right...give an angry witch zoloft.....   just what collinwood needs

[Taeylor Collins]

Yeah really, especially if it works the opposite on her and makes her worse.  I am being really honest here.  At one time when I first came out of the closet I took them and they made me more depressed than ever.  So if they did Angie that way then all of her evils would be childs play compared to what she would be like after taking the medication.

Just FYI, different antidepressants work in various ways with different people.  Anything that doesn't work for you, or has side effects that aren't worth it should be discontinued.  Some people have terrible reactions to Paxil, for example.  It helped me.  After becoming a widower, I ended up on Seroquel and that knocked me for a loop--but was worth it in the end.

[Janet the Wicked]

Well, we're talking years before the pharmacuticals took over the world, aren't we?

[Taeylor Collins]

Yeah I don't even know if antidepressants were around in that era?!  And yes I know depressants help some people.  However, I have virtually tried everyone there is and that all make me more depressed.  This is my last post about this cause I feel I have gotten this thread way off topic.  SORRY!
