The work of Gurdjieff has helped me a lot in the last few years since I've discovered him, he spoke about mankind as being asleep, we sift through our imagination all the time, we identify with both negative and positive things, we express negative emotions at the drop of a hat, we become personalities and lose our essence.

Some 11 years here. We cannot know that the experience is temporary. We must believe it is, for there seems to be no other way out of this but to believe or die.

You should try and reach out to others, if you can that is. And if you don't have anyone, or can't ask for help then I guess you're fucked. Heh.

Are you related to Bonnie by any chance? She was among my favorite and most respected teachers when she came to teach medical science academy at our high school. To manage to both pass the bar exam and earn a doctorate in one lifetime is so impressive. She was aware of the leading research at the time and wasn’t dismissive of information that went against conventional wisdom. We learned about research into the non-psychoactive ingredient in cannabis, CBD, and how it was helping treat patients with degenerative nerve diseases. It was helping to slow the breakdown of the Myelin sheath around nerve cells. This was way back in ~2004 when cannabis was still very illegal and labeled as having no medical use. Just a cool memory that came to mind. If you are not related, my apologies! Thank you for your insights on mental health.

I like guided meditations on KZbin by Michael Sealey to induce sleep. These are necessary for me.
