astral p and meds

[sinister]

Hi all I have had trouble with anxiety attacks most of my life which is the flight or flight response going off when there is no reason for it to go off for it will happen every minut or so and by the time one is finally ending there is another just eround the corner,and i tried going off my meds a few months ago but the anxiety came back so i was forced to go back on them,due to not being able to function at all normally in daily activities.so what i was wondering is,has anyone been on any type of meds like Zoloft or paxil and still had no problem astral projecting?for i have been trying to astral project with Ophiels astral projection methods in his book for two years,with no more than a few lucid dreams,even tho i practice daily to astral project for about two houres including the methods he tells you to use before trying to project.which take about an hour every day.astral projection has been a thing which has pulled me to it,i feel the strong need to be able to consciously astral project.so i am wondering what is the problem,and hoping its just that i have not found the right method for me as of yet.so if anyone can help me out with my questions please do,,thanks,,Steve

It seems more likely to me that it is not the medications which interfere with projection attempts but the condition they are intended to treat. The energy you raise through meditation and techniques like NEW is being diverted toward healing. When you evaluate your progress based only on not being able to get out of body consciously, it is easy to ignore that maybe you feel less anxious after meditating or raising energy. Looking for signs of progress that you were not expecting is an easier way to get started than keeping your attention on the things which don't seem to be going as well.
