Just curious if anyone else has experienced, researched or been able to navigate what they may have thought was psychosis when infact it was not psychosis but a mental breakthrough to a spiritual awakening? Thanks for your feedback.
Or just the connection between the 2?
What kind of spiritual awakening did you experience? I am open to hear people’s stories that are more than what can be labelled in a book somewhere....
Basically that what happened as a mental emotional breakdown that doctors tried to prescribe drugs to didn't pan out in a positive way. Where the voices and messages I receive are always positive and i have always been able to feel, see, hear, sense this ability. I have now aligned myself with other spiritual workers or lightworkers and empaths and I'm learning that in fact I am not sick and have a very strong ability to connect with spirit. I feel that there is a huge medical profession that loves to prescribe drugs and that is not necessarily what we always needed. Hoping we can see the similarities and in some cases there may be a need for professional medical help. However, in other instances this may be a specific journey for each person. It usually runs in families and finding a mentor is something worth seeking if it feels right for you!
I do believe is Spirit....always have. Many say in church they believe in the Holy Spirit, but when you say you saw Spirit....they think you’re nuts....that’s kind of an oxymoron to me. Since the beginning of the time when humans began to look up to the heavens and wonder....where does our life essence go when we die....and why....
These are the questions that every religion, theologian, guru, and shaman have tried to answer form millennia....but it's a simple answer...they are always with you, it's just that you have stopped believing they exist. Yet people believe in having a soul, or spirit....and that if your good in this life....you will go to a special place. Yet if you say you saw a ‘Ghost’....or ‘Spirit’.....they look at you like you’re a bit off your rocker.
So, nobody wants to admit they hear, or smell, or sometimes may see something not of this corporeal realm....but again....who’s to say....can all who do connect with Spirit be charlatans or scam artists....I think those that give this knowledge freely, and don’t get paid for it....are probably more likely legit.....where I’m from...it’s widely accepted Spirit exists.....but for those with ‘the Gift’.....you can never be paid....barter is okay within reason.....
Yes, your reasoning is so truthful. Why are so many quick to call others crazy? Seems simple that others may have a different or special connection. Yet , we're not accepted in some parts of this world. Def, an oxymoron!
And i have not practiced this to be paid, ive only done work on myself to grow spiritually. I need to move to a place where its not frowned upon!
Where I live, it's part of the culture....it's an Island of many Ghosts as it's said....so people revere their dead, care for the graves of those who have passed, and believe they are always with the living in Spirit. So it's no big stretch for people here to believe that some have 'the gift'....
Also im an empath and its hard to live with it...i can read aura also 😊
I started to see certain numbers a while ago, saw them everywhere I went. Looked into it and learned about some. It was spiritual, it taught me what way to think and other things. It has helped me a lot.
The #'s have been a huge factor for me as well. Very interesting. I think we all have this ability to connect with our guardian angels and many if us just are not fully open to it yet. Im glad you had a positive experience. Did you find like minded ppl to talk to about this?
I haven't told anyone about it.
Oh wow! How long have you been experiencing it for? I can't say ive told many but ive done a lot of research and am able to differentiate between having a fear based experience and how to clear my energy and how to be in alignment with my spirit guides who are hear to help me. It's truly a gift. You just have to stay in the light. Maybe look on facebook for some like minded ppl in ur area or look for a spiritual church where there are others that have had this happen too them. They are so positive and usually know right away you have a gift!! It feels great to know u have support!
I'm not sure I need or want support, it's not something that is affecting me in a bad way. I just go with it.
It has been happening for about two years.. started with seeing the number 1111 everywhere, I looked into it and now I understand it more. I see other numbers sometimes too but it's mainly 1111, though I don't see them all of the time.
You have experience in this too then?
Yesss!! It also started with 1111 which happens to be the birthdate of 2 special loved ones that have both passed. Regardless this has been on going for 15 yrs and i have had many experiences. Mainly positive. My abilities only have developed and grown over time as have i. Learning about reiki healing, meditation & how to trust my intuition. It's all a very unique journey. I just wish there were more ppl that would share their experiences and hopefully more ppl would not feel confined to being labeled and having to take meds!! Im glad your experience has been positive!
I have always had really good intuition and have always trusted it.
This has happened to me before more than once but it was years ago and I took no notice of it. I have even been told that certain things will happen to me and they did, but it wasn't a person that told me.
I always think in a positive way now and since the numbers appeared two years ago I have been almost always happy because I looked into the meaning of them and understood them. I don understand why I sent the numbers but I do. Maybe someday I will find out.
I used to have anxiety etc and never took med for any of it.. i always think there is another way to fix things.
It's nice to meet you by the way.
Yes! Thx so much for sharing! I have gone through alot of negatives in my past, anxiety, depression, social anxiety, thankfully ive been able to navigate through most of it with staying positive. I have been prescribed meds but they do not seem to solve my feelings/ thoughts for very long! I always believed and intuitively known that is not tge path for me. I am also always learning as i go through each experience! Im really enjoying reading each experience you have shared, so thx so much for that!
Nice to chat/meet/share with u as well!
You must be in tune with yourself then, you seem to follow your instincts..
Meds only put a coat on the negative feelings they don't cure them.
It's interesting talking about it, so thank you too for sharing with me.
I agree with you on that. It took me a while to understand what was going on and a lot of soul searching before i was fully able to stand up fir myself.
Im still just beginning to understand the strong link between the 2 ideas. And would love to see others feel accepted for who they are not feel like the only option is meds when infact not all ppl who have experienced psychosis actually need meds or have anything wrong with them!
I agree with you, but some people are raised to believe that meds are the only way.
So you started to see the numbers, do you know why?
This is why i wanted to post this as being able to connect with my angels is a gift. This usually runs in families as well. Often time others have been told they are crazy and need meds. This is not always the way.
The #s are just another way of communication or to know u are in synchronicity with the universe and life. Its like a sign/ symbol. A positive one!
You seem to know a lot about it..
I'll learn as I go..
You know the meanings of all of the numbers?
I know some of the meanings. They just want to connect and thats the easiest way without scaring us, at least that was ny opinion!
Once yoy start seeing or hearing or feeling or smelling it can become more intense. They are only here from a place of love. We are powerful beyond measure!
It's said when you see numbers in seqence over and over, the angels are talking to you. Giving you messages.
So I believe.. they are guiding, but is it really angels?
Some say angels, some say spirit....I guess it's whatever someone chooses to believe. Some believe both are separate entities....as spirit is part of everyone and with you at birth and live within you throughout your life, and angels are not. Spirit can also be those that have come to help the living, eitherthey are relatives who have passed or not. Some believe angels protect the living. It varies so much....that I don't think there is a simple answer.
I don't believe that angel thing.. maybe none of us know what it is that's doing this. Maybe we don't need to know.
I don't think that humans are intelligent enough to understand this stuff fully.
you mentioned intuition.....I believe that's part of 'the gift'....and I think angels are a manifestation of biblical terms....I personally am more inclined to believe in a 'knowing'.....an insight so to speak.
those warnings, that little voice in the back of your head type thing, of maybe not going somewhere at a certain time....or not following through with something....and you find out later it was a good idea you didn't.
Yes intuition!
That's the thing, I don't believe in anything that the Bible says.. so I'd not be into the angel thing, it prob is just a biblical term though, something to put a name to it I suppose.
According to the history of Angels they were morphed from the mythology of cherubs, as do many story's in the bible borrow from mythology...and that's what the bible is....story's....metaphorical lessons....made up to give moral examples to live by....some believe every word written by some guys back some 2,000 years ago...when really the earliest words written were over a 100 years after the main event, and much was miss translated from Aramaic and Greek, as well as many pieces of the dead sea scrolls were missing....and because the translations were by various different people, it’s safe to say things changed along the way. If you've ever played telegraph....peoples interpretations of the same story change's over the years, so to take everything verbatim is a bit naive....especially when in the 4th century, Constantine picked and chose Canons to suit his own purposes, while other Canons such as the 'gospel of Mary', and the gospel of the savoir' were discarded.....for political reasons I'm sure.
It was used to put certain people above other people and has been altered accordingly,like some of the royalty of Europe for example.
I know what you are saying and understand it. Some of the moral examples are awful in the Bible.
I think if a person believes in a god then they wouldn't need a book to guide them.
true....I feel the same....as a matter of fact....there was a huge cover up by the Vatican in the 40's over a dead sea scroll which said exactly that...and the church didn't want people to think...that as the scroll said....god is within you and all around you, if you turn over a log there I am....so there would be no need for churches, pope mobiles, and robes with real gold threads....the poor would be of equal status. And as I was once told....if Christ came back today...what would he look like...probably a homeless guy.....because it was a message of love and equality, not very enterprising for the church coffers.
Religion is not good for spirituality, religion is human made.
The churches have a lot to answer for and shouldn't keep things locked away from the people.
I always thought that if people believe in gods that they should prey be worship in private, not as part of an organisation that needs their money.
But why are we singling out Christianity ,there are around 5000 gods worshipped by humans on this planet.
actually....the Abrahamic based religions of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity all believe in basically the same people throughout the history of the Torah, Koran, and the bible.....all three have similar text.....Zoroastrianism is the oldest known written, and has a revelations, a good and evil battle....do unto others as you would have done to you, etc.....
Yes, I have read about some of this, it is interesting, you think a lot of today's religions are a combination of a lot of older religions then?
I think people just have to have something to believe in, a reason for the existence of everything.
Where I am from Christians have been fighting Between themselves for decades, maybe it has had an effect on what I believe in.
Absolutely....when Zoroaster, who was a Persian leader and some say Prophet, took on the displaced Hebrew tribes.....he did not enslave them, he freed them. Many believe he influenced the other Abrahamic religions – Christianity and Islam. Much of what is written in the text of Zoroastrianism is very similar....and a lot of it again is to me just mythology....I don't believe in any organized religion as both religion and politics start out with words and discussion....and end up in an argument to be 'right', and ultimately to war....and death....in the name of whoever's God. Somehow I find that hypocritical....
I'll have to look into it more, there is a lot to learn.
I also want to know why some people are so extreme about religion.
I think because some feel there is only 'One Way'....and there is no room for diversity, many believe in tolerance, but don't practice it, believe in acceptance but segregate each other with a class status....and that's the brick wall of organised religion...hence, having thousands and thousands of different belief systems....
Spirituality is all about the freedom, not the mind controlled stuff they try to brainwash us all with in politics/religions/healthcare/schools/ ect. Love, peace & freedom
This is what feels right! Treat others as you would like to be treated!
Very insightful. Thankyou 4 sharing!
I feel they prefer to be referred to as spirit guides or angels. Its all goid thoygh! Thats why tgey run in sequences . It along process to describe, they want u to know their around u!
yes....I have heard that too.....understand and respect that.
Yes I agree.
Absolutely , as a child I was slated fir talking to people, in fact it was spirit, now I am older on on that spiritual path, I realise it’s a blessing , it is a form of spiritual awakening, as are number sequences etc x
Yess! Thankyou for sharing! It's so awesome to hear others agree or know the difference. This all resonates with me and is exactly what i was hoping to find out! As im sure there are many others that ate going through stuff that they dobt understand and then think something is wrong, when in reality they have a gift!
And it is a gift if you are open to it, it is the basis of my life now, I am sure it helps me, just trusting, and even though I get lonely, this depression sucks for that, I know that I never walk alone, it’s a comfort x
Yes i agree. We are truly never alone. There is always someone with us, guiding us, helping us, even when we feel so alone. Im so grateful to hear im not alone in my thoughts and believing i actually have a gift vs being told i need meds. I am so grateful!
I think you and I would get on really well, you have made my day xxx blessings xx
Yes! I have been on the search for others that have gone through similar experiences and yet have also been through depression, anxiety and isolation. However, have an ultimate knowing we are greater than ourselves and have now changed there lives to serve others! I would love to connect further. As i have suppressed my gifts for many years and am intersted in exploring them now!
I believe in spiritual awakenings too. I have never been able to communicate with spirit like some do as a gift, but I feel I have been guided over the past 10 to 15yrs to a spiritual awakening. I also have experienced anxiety and depression and also panic attacks. I think it is part of sensitives path, well at least it's been part of my path in life. For me awakening has been about realising that I am a helper and finding my purpose. I also talk to the angels. I don't see or hear anything back but I trust that they are listening to me. It brings me great comfort. It is comforting also to know that there are people like you around too because I do not feel so alone. I would love to find likeminded people.
Thankyou so much, they ate always listening, guiding, helping. So continue with this, u are right. So cool to meet so many who are open to this idea!
Gilly, lovely to meet you x
Aww thank you! It's lovely to meet you to.
Well you have inspired me to go back to the spiritual church, thanks a lot xxx
Tbh i feel unlocked and in touch spiritually....i had a cleari g of the mind lastnight,a pure pulse of energy it was magic,full of pure love and warmth,then.....i see the evil in this world and cry..
Yes the dark side can be very overwhelming and i believe it is only fear based or ego based. I do everything possible to stay in the light. Think positive thoughts & choose wisely on who i put energy into. Sometimes easier for me to hang out in nature with my pups!
I go into the mountains sometimes alone, it makes a big difference to me I think, clears my head. Being with nature is something everyone should do.
Yes! This is of very huge importance for me as well! Are you also from canada or uk? It seems this site may have been initiated in the uk?
UK, but i think the health service here is involved with this site.
It seems quite a few ppl sound lije they're from there as well. I guess the word is spreading tho and its becomming a larger community!
Yes I think a lot if people on here are from the UK.
It does seem to be getting bigger too.
Wonderful concentrate on the positives x x
