Hi Cat,
Somehow, I feel you react to Rachel and me because we both mentioned we have
been in mental hospitals. Is that true? I'm sure there are more people here.
The DSM-V is in my cubboard from when I did my therapeutic training, and I
can diagnose myself pretty well. I am off medication now, just have
preventive medication in my house for the symptoms that come up in manic
episodes. (haven't had depressions for 8 years, don't think I will ever
again)
But most of all I am on this list exactly because of what you mention: I do
believe, since I found this list, it is possible to heal all symptoms, in
time. Somehow I don't feel comfortable you are pointing me back to that
"categorical" red book.
I had a total and unexpected K-awakening after meditation in India, the
energy going up and down, and finally out. Then nothing and mental illness
for years. Since about 4 years, my manic episodes started to be accompanied
by lots of K-symptoms, the weirdest bodily sensations, lots of memories or
images coming in my mind from past lives (or so it seems), I relived many
death-causes. I saw complete orchestra's of light one night.
Just recently I was really tested for opening up about something and felt
the need to learn more, and respect the immense spiritual world. I felt like
a small amoebe at one time, another I was burning all over - could hardly
hold on.
Now I am out of it again, but this time I really got the message, not just
from you all (and after having been back to India, talking to a
yogi/psychoanalyst and to a nameless Aghorababa, who really confirmed my
experiences) but also directly from higher beings I sensed and felt, that I
am welcome to continue my search, but with care and respect. And that yes I
should have the confidence to continue and that I will be able to stabilize
myself more in time.
Love, José
