Petu – that is so great you had a big, helpful synchronicity! I skimmed that article and it looks very helpful. Just what you were asking for! It is, indeed, crucial to find a therapist who sees the value in the dark night of the soul, and doesn’t pathologize it.
And, I’m so glad you feel more reassured that there is a bona fide spiritual aspect to what you are going through. This belief is what has helped me the most to get through this.

"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."
