Don't you see that world is already changing for better without it?

Don't you see the evidence of this in the weather patterns in the last year? In the behavior and mind set of the majority of the people you assume are being judged?

I have never had an actual conversation so to speak with an animal, not where I actually imagined words as their responses. But I am an empath and have always had a very open communication with them. I have only recently come to understand my being an empath, but I have always known there was SOMETHING very different about me and my connection with them, as well as with plants, bugs, children, and strangers, etc.

Animals tend to just want attention, love, and to play. "The more people I meet, the more I like my dog."

I can "feel" their thoughts, but I cannot "hear" them. Words mean very little to me anyway.

Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken

No, but it might help you fly.

I am very glad!

I think you are perceiving negative questioning and condescension where there is none. Who is going to discard your thoughts because of your age? I am only 2 years older than you! And I'm about 20 years younger than most of the friends I've made here! No one is telling you to stop taking your meds right now. We are just "questioning" for the purpose of getting to know you and help you better. We are questioning in case you have never thought about trying to function without them. We are merely brainstorming here to try to come up with ways to help you! And it's not like you are the only one who came here looking for help.

WE ALL CAME HERE LOOKING FOR HELP! (whether we realized it or not)

And no one is going to tell you why/why you should not be here! You have been absolutely welcomed already, don't you see that? We already care enough about you to talk to you and want to help you! What more of a welcome could you ask for? Please realize that this site and others like it are filled with insightful, inquisitive and genuinely caring people. Most of which have abilities and gifts beyond the realm of "normalcy". We are not judging you, for to do so would be judging ourselves. We are all family, not just on this site but in the spiritual community in general. Human suffering is not individual, it is global. We are all injured animals waiting to attack our saviors, and chances are we have bitten quite a few in our lives, I know I have! But why don't we just let them help us? Why do we fight? Why do we lay there injured and alone for so long? Because we're human. And my dearest, we are ALL human. At least in this life.

Maybe I should tell a little more about my own "mental illness". I am bipolar, with ADD and OCD. I used to have terrible obsessive thoughts, sometimes I still do. I cannot be interested in something that does not matter, i.e. no attention span! I used to have mood swings so intense they would blow your mind. I would be so "manic" that I would have insomnia, talk a million miles a minute, feel like I was going to com bust or self destruct, behave in ways that would make a sailor embarrassed. I have been suicidal, I have cut myself, I have written poetry so morbid it would make you sick to your stomach. I have plotted on ways to kill myself. I had a collection of medications I was going to take hidden away for months that I was going to take to end it all. I tried once, took 5 zoloft and 5 shots and sat in fear trembling all night, hallucinating that spiders were crawling all over the walls and all I wanted to do was tell everyone I was sorry and I loved them. I have screamed so loud and so hard that it pained me to stop. I have sat trembling in my closet, wishing to just disappear. I spent 50 days my senior year in bed every day until 3pm!!! I could go on, but I just wanted to let everyone know, cornorpus you especially, that I understand. Many of us do.

look for the root cause, and don't treat the symptoms

You will not truly realize how true this is until it is right for you to. But it is so true. So so so true.

Please don't be angry. No one thinks you are stupid. And no on is accusing you of anything. We are worried that your gifts and spiritual awakening is/are being masked by the medications you are on. I know this to be a fact from experience!! I know what you are going through, and so do many others, what they are trying to say, is that there is another way, and there is more to it than that. Please don't be angry love. We do not "know" you personally, but we do "know" you in the sense that we are all the same and we have been through EVERYTHING at one point, in this life or others. Nothing is individual, we are all connected, and believe it or not, some of us just want to help.

This is kind of freaking me out a little bit and I hope you all are still frequenting the thread and read this. I played the cd out loud on my cd player, just to see what it sounded like through normal speakers which released the sound into the entirety of the room, and my dog happened to be in the room. Well my dog freaked out, her ears went up, her tail went up and she started acting really weird, looking at things that weren't there...just flipping out. I assume that there are frequencies playing that we don't consciously pick up on, higher frequencies, and that is what she was picking up on. But it really freaked me out and I'm a little wary of using the cd's now. Although I must say they have been helpful thus far.

I completely agree. Rastus, thank you for that article.

remember there are many layers, I recommend reading the book "hands of light" by Barbara Brennan. Awesome text! Right up your ally.

I agree with Rastus. And I'll get with you on that here shortly.

Oh my.

when I have been "stuck" before, "seeing" the room around me but being paralyzed in a sleep/dream like trance, I "felt" a dog lick my face. Of course I also "felt" a rug fall on my head and "saw" my entire family around me making salad out of blue lettuce so who knows.

Happy Birthday! What a coincidence, it's my un-birthday!
Let's celebrate!

My boyfriend's mother has had these types of visits countless times. She has told me about many of them. Family members, friends, etc. She is highly psychic and natural "talented". My boyfriend "saw" his guardian angel in a dream when he was two, and then after that spent his life being scared to death of the possibility of "seeing dead people" and blocked out any of his "natural gifts". That is of course until I met him, me the spiritual seeker, and him the should be naturally gifted psychic. He never had a chance, haha. So after his friend died in a car crash his senior year, he realized his abilities were nowhere near gone, because in a dream, his friends "ghost" came to him. He's a lot more open now, starting to acknowledge his "gifts"...slowly, for he's still afraid. I on the other hand, am still seeking.

Haha, why thank you Rastus. And thank you Chimerae, sorry I spelled your name wrong before.  I think you sound wonderful, too!
Recently I discovered that Barbara Brennan's school of healing is in South Florida. I am certainly going to look into that. I plan on going into the natural/alternative health field. I was originally going to be, of all things, a psych. I was in school for a while, so I assume some of my therapy "skills" are a result of the classes I did take, but I think my being an empath is what is behind most of my "understanding"; and always has been.

Everything makes so much more sense lately. Rastus, I love you! I am so much more at peace now than even a week ago!

(Barbara Brennan, author of "hands of light")

plant a flower garden and shower it with Unconditional Love.

Oh yes, they love that! And what a wonderful natural experience it is anyway!

Chimarae, I completely agree that almost everyone needs therapy. I have just gotten to the point where I can be my own therapist, honestly and objectively. I work as my BF's therapist as well, and in the last year his progress has been amazing. Most people just never get the point where they can accept their "weaknesses/faults" as well as their "strengths"; meanwhile realizing that they have been there all along and always will be. Most people are blind to the fact that they are not "perfect" in regards to "mental health" and even suggesting such a thing will get you in a hot spot real quick. In all honesty, it's just too much "work" and "responsibility" for them. I will never understand most people... I was lucky and had a wonderful psychologist when I was in therapy. I was however not as lucky with my psychiatrist and the games she played with me and my meds. I would love to work with someone like you are speaking of, I will have to look for some in my area!

You shouldn't worry about people judging you for sharing your experiences. That's why your here right, to see what you can get from us and what we can get from you. I've heard all kinds of stories of that nature and I think each and every one is wonderful! Welcome!

Are any of you familiar with the Kryon channeling's. They seem to meet all of the criteria you were mentioning for pure/useful/helpful channeling's. I just wanted to get your opinion. I myself am fascinated by them and the messages they give. I am unaware of these Zeta channeling's however. What are the resources or sights I would need to know to look into them. Just for clarification purposes of course.

i am also ADD and have extra problems with anxiety and depression. i love meeting other bipolar people and its great how you see yourself as an empath. while exploring my mind and inner self, i can feel a strange connection to the spirit and i have noted a level of genius or brilliance. i see great potential for clairvoyance, i just have yet to develop myself enough. i think that there is a great deal more to bipolar disorder, rather than simply a mental illness. it is evident in historical figures such as DaVinci and many artists and great thinkers.

It's like reading my own life story! Believe me, I understand!
And you are completely right, "mental illness" and "genius" are very connected! Edison, Davinici, Einstein...
I am just now coming to understand what it has meant all these years to be an empath, and to not have known I was an empath. So many of what I thought were irrational emotions/reactions/thoughts, I am now realizing, were never my own to begin with. I've also come to realize that I'm a bit of a psy vamp as well, and have been unknowingly TAKING the energy, positive and NEGATIVE of others. So many things make so much more sense now! It feels like I have been reintroduced to my true self...it gives me wonderful peace.

I wish my clairvoyance was as well developed as yours is however. Perhaps the reason you see the fairies more clearly than other beings is because they are closest to your heart. Might I ask, you love fairies don't you? You think the word "faerie" and your heart feels warm and light and you are filled with joy, you believe with all your heart, and you love them. Well, what about when you think the word "gnome" or "elf"...do these same overwhelming feelings arise? This would perhaps be the reason you have a stronger connection to them than other beings...just an idea.

Healing with the Fairies by Doreen Virtue was pretty good. A little new age fru fru at times, but good if your heart is in the right place. I am a huge Doreen Virtue fan! Also since I have gotten my Faerie Oracle cards things seem to be clearer in regards to faerie intentions and messages. (The Brian Froud Fairies Oracle is beautiful and artistic and for anyone who truly loves our little friends) Hi Rastus, that's so wonderful to hear from you! I love fairies and elementals, in my heart they are often dearer than humans, as I am extremely in love with gaia and her life. I hope our young friend will understand his love to be the same and not allow his fears and judgments to block his experience.
BTW, the reading is going great.

great idea! I just wish I could actually intentionally enter into this state to perform the test, which I can't. Darnit. It always just "happens" when I'm oversleeping...and I can't intentionally project, phase, or anything...does this mean I have the potential to do so?

I use to struggle during paralysis attempting to move and unable

I didn't realize before that this was what was actually happening to me as well. I have posted before about feeling "stuck" in a strange in between world where I can "see" the room around me, but also "see" different hallucinations, figures, hear noises, etc. I always thought my eyes must be open, because I could for instance "see" when a family member would walk in the room by the bed, but I don't know what to think now. ??

First of all, you need to reconfigure your understanding of your being "bipolar" and see what metaphysical/energetic issues might also explain your bipolar "behaviors". I too am "bipolar" with ADD and OCD tendencies, am 19 years old...and I too, see the EXACT same things. I have come to realize recently that I am an empath, which explains ALOT. It is not a hallucination dear boy, and do not tell your metaphysically challenged psychiatrist ANYTHING about them. I LOVE fairies, and I too see them as orbish balls of firefly like light, flitting around outdoors. I don't see actual "beings" so to speak, but who's to say I won't one day. My bf also sees these orbs of light, I have also hears them described as "energy globules" in a book or two I've read. Other than that, everything James said. And on that note, I'll leave you with this...alot of what the physical world sees as mental disorder, is due to metaphysical experiences. They don't understand. We do. Don't let "them" define your reality.
