    I am feeling a little better; it is incredible what mind and body can endure.

    If I ever come out of this, NOTHING is going to beat me, NOTHING!

    Hi Alex. You are hurting badly. I am sorry. One thing I have learned about feelings is they DO change. In the meantime I hope you can think or meditate on something that is soothing and positive for you. I don't have too much to say. I just want to encourage you and don't give in to dark thoughts. They do pass.

    Joy makes an incredibly important point – feelings always change. Even in w/d. Even in other real, hard situations.

    And, the feelings strongly determine your memories and your beliefs about your past, present, and future. Just feeling a tiny bit better makes a huge difference in being able to have hope.

    Just try to be as kind as you can to yourself when you feel horrible and hopeless, and wait for it to pass.

    "An initiation into shamanic healing means a devaluation of all values, an overturning of the profane world, a peeling away of inveterate handed-down notions of the world, liberation from everything preconceived. For that reason, shamanism is closely connected with suffering. One must suffer the disintegration of one's own system of thought in order to perceive a new world in the higher space."

    Hi Alex:

    Everything that happens is WD.

    At my worst wd, I was sorry because I had family ... I wanted to have no family, no children, no husband. He wanted to flee, leaving the family and live alone. I did not want my children were to have the memory of a disastrous mother.
    In WD "brain tricks us" and made ​​strange thoughts.

    A big hug
