> more auditory hallucinations. people kept standing behind me screaming last night. i was half asleep most of the time, so maybe it's just nightmares. couldn't close my eyes without hearing someone. it was so LOUD. i take enough meds, though. i don't want to take any more.
ghost,
<<< Caution: I accept that you are upset and asking for your help, your way. I accept that your feelings of peace and harmony are being highjacked by the voices sending you instantly into fear and apprehension!
What I have discovered and been shown is surprisingly unique and simple. So simple that some therapists sometimes dismiss it as VOODOO!
Beware: The Holy Roman Church used to declare the world as being flat and anyone not accepting that as guilty of heresy. So, I'm a heretic. So.... Am I still breathing? Yep!
What would happen if you updated these experiences and visions to the practical status of unfinished (mental) business and/or unresolved issues? What do you think? Then, from that point, you could put them on a list of things to do. You can evaluate and process what you know. The mental highjacking is happening in your doubts and 'don't knows'.
Suddenly, their power to highjack your feelings and blackmail your sensibilities is extinguished! Don't the voices evoke fear? Isn't this flush of fear highjacking your peace of mind? ...your quietude?
NOTE: This drill extinguishes their grip over you by taking them out of the realm of the mystical and the overwhelming. This is (only) similar to teaching a child to order the 'boogeyman' out from under the bed and to stand at attention. Next, '...and please leave the house and don't come back unitl your willing to play nice!" Because we are no longer children this technique is only similar.
Ordering the 'voices and hullucinations' around is, in a word, 'empowering' as adults, so it works for kids' 'boogeymen' toooo! Did I say that backwards...?
Try my heresy. If you like what it does, you can be my manager and we'll take this show on the road.
