Hello fellow sufferers, after one of the most scariest, extreme wave of depression I´ve had in months since this ordeal begun, I´m having a quite clear window.
I didn´t know I was able to endure such a terryfying feeling of sickness; it was almost as if my brain was boiling...!!
But I did; I wonder if this IS the nature of this "beast" as Sheila calls w/d?
And NEEDINGHELP: YES, IT GETS BETTER.I can be your father, and father "always" knows best.LOL:

That is really great to hear, Alex! It's typical in WD - after a very very bad episode, there may come the relief.
Keep walking. Just keep walking.

"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."
