I’ve found ,at least from what I’ve gained on my journey, that a great deal of this is the horrible truth that we must all go through the death of out physical bodies. From this I gather that only by mastering our energy body and astral/soul travel can we finally achieve dealing with this horrific fear and despair. This has been called The Achievement of The Solar Body and many other names.

Wow. I've been going thru this for some time and it's been terrifying. There have been times I was suicidal, unable to find purpose in this life, feeling lonely and detached. I've always felt different, as tho I don't belong, unable to relate, incredibly introverted and difficulty forming relationships. When you spoke to not even wanting to get out of bed... I felt it. I've literally spent weeks and even months unable to get up in the morning, only able and willing to do the basic necessities. I just wanted to sleep, often via chemical assistance which led to other issues. I've never felt so empty yet overwhelmed at the same time, no energy and finding little if any joy in things I once enjoyed. I'm so confused about what to do from here.

[@JamieMunday]

Sounds like it's time to pick up a daily spiritual practice like meditation or yoga

[@zazo2911]

I relate to what you’re saying. It can be terrifying at times this disconnect with the world we call reality. What helped me was finding a strong and reliable spiritual teacher and starting spiritual practices like meditation and yoga which incorporate breathing practice as suggested in the video. I follow Eckhart Tolle. His teaching is deep honest and practical . It’s brought me a lot of peace but he’s not for everyone. Perhaps this channel offers teaching as well? It’s my first time watching it. Give it a try. If you don’t like it just move on to something else. KZbin has many resources available for free. Take advantage of it. I wish you the very best on your journey my dear. Don’t worry, you’ll be ok. And you are not alone.... Loving blessings and peace to you 🙏🏻❤️

After a few days do it without the video sound. Sit on a chair, close your eyes, be still and focus on the incoming and outgoing breath at the entrance of your nostrils. A lot of thoughts will come but after some time negative thoughts will not impact you. Do the above meditation for 10 to 15 minutes early morning and evening. The free Vipaasna meditation centres are there all around the world. Do the above practice daily. Best wishes.

My dark night manifested in the form of anxiety rather than depression, so it looked and felt very different than how most people portray it. Mine was characterized by crippling fear and panic attacks. Getting out of it happened in stages and it's really nice being on the other side of it.

I have also had more anxiety than depression, but I’ve noticed they go hand in hand as well. My anxiety paralyzes me, and then the guilt of being stuck and unproductive leads to feeling depressed and just feeling like everything is pointless. Lol it’s crazy

[@sasquatchbrett6331]

Don't go to the hospital when you have that awakening & moving pain. I was put in a psych ward for 5 days; I refused psych meds and then left when the psychiatrist decided I was too knowledgeable to be crazy.

[@Renee2000]

I went through the same & it still angers me today but it's a work in progress. I was given prescriptions to "Help ease my mind." only to end up in comatose & feeling actual depression instead of the expressions & oppression I fought to voice. Even now, I fight for my truth. The spirit world is very real. I fear for those who aren't prepared for what's coming.

[@yvesvixxen]

This almost happened to me. I was going to go see a therapist but my guides prevented it from happening. I understand now tho because trying to explain to a mental health professional that you’re seeing angels, you feel like you’re dying, and you don’t feel like you’re in your body...they’ll label you as being schizophrenic or catatonic

[@nicoledavis3382]

Same here. But my psychiatrist just kept prescribing more medication for all the symptoms my medication was causing

[@true1evanique]

@@nicoledavis3382 That doesn't sound good. I personally never wanted to take medication because I felt that at some point I was going to have to meet my demons head on, and I just wanted to get it over with. Well, it's not over with, but I have had some great awakening moments through the years.

[@violet5114]

My psychiatrist also gave me meds and the first day i took one, my solar plexus was in severe pain, I felt the burning and stabbing sensation. I was also having intense anxiety and panic attacks. I stopped taking it and i was okay the next day.

It’s been 3 weeks of a severe lack of interest in very much. I thought it was seasonal depression. But this makes sense.

I'm definitely in a dark night of the soul. I knew what was going on with me was strange but the KZbin vids on this topic is really helpful. It helps to know that I'm not alone and others have experienced this as well and I'm not just crazy. In tarot readings they talk about "Oh you're just having a Dark Night of the Soul". I was thinking what is that exactly. So thanks for the clarification on this topic.

Anxiety & depression has crippled my EXISTANCE. I was literally silenced with an inability to even speak for 6 months. A slow very painful DEATH as it would seem... I now live on the edge of that FEAR ever so near to invade my life at any given moment. I stay in perpetual seclusion away from harm. Feed off of the beauty of nature but cannot sustain a living doing just that. I never allow anyone to get to close they may judge me if this happens I make sure to ruin there curiosity about me with my wicked self...A painful childhood keep me locked in self destruction. Starving myself of a connect to life and or to anyone. I have mastered to fool those who have broken threw the eggshell glimpse of myself hatred. It's like a magic show I put on to my past councilors, hypnotists, therapists and psychiatrists. A comedic display of sarcasm to distract them from my pain & suffering...My couch is my best friend, my stomach is killing me...I feel I am drowning holding my last and final breath to awaken & face another day....You say we all have purpose please, I surrender to that thought if only for a mere second today...Allow me the spiritual awakening to remove the soul crushing pain....

It's so comforting to hear someone speak of death so directly. Thank you. I'm deep in a mess. I've been going through this spiritual awakening for a good 15 years now. I HAVE been asking God why I was born to THIS life, in THIS family, in THIS country, with THESE karmatic ties. And I have received answers. I wish I didn't. It's so overwhelming. I have no idea what I have to do to follow my spiritual path. I feel so lost. Now, I want to die, not because life is bad - I have everything I need and want (of course I will always want more but I have plenty of what I already asked for), but because I've been shown my future, and I can't accept it. A part of me wants more (to travel space for example), and a part of me just wants to be free, truly free - to live my life. And when you learn why you've come here, as a soul - you lose that freedom. You know the ONE PATH, or at least - where it leads. I'm really troubled. And I don't know anyone else who's experiencing anything like this.

We have to go beyond life while being alive. Beautifully put my friend. I see it as fulfilling our role in leading humanity while they catch up to what’s actually happening. Maybe it’s in us to build the steps needed for those who are still asleep to walk up and wake up. Then again we are just vesicles that are being used for the collective contribution to everything. We just have to let the universe do it’s thing through us. And when the roles switch be thankful for people that accept their calling. I hope everyone can accept their current situations no matter what they’re going through. It is necessary to complete God’s plan 🙏 peace be with you.

Going through this, at least for me, has been an intensely lonely and confusing experience. So when I feel connection with someone even in the most minor of ways, it’s nice. And reminds me that connection is still part of life. Which at this point, I often forget. I feel like it’s been this way for so long that it’s became my normal, empty aloneness. Ive been in this darkness for going on 4 years. Every bit of information I learn that creates new thoughts in me, is causing me to grow and learn, one tiny fragment at a time and will ultimately help me get through this so thank you for sharing some of your experience and insight. 🖤

[@lllskakg9133]

@@A.Krispy Im so sorry to hear you are going through this. This reminds me of a video I saw of Sinead O'Conner in a run down motel saying and thinking the same thoughts. It made no sense. She's a famous and beautiful musician but she couldn't seem to stop her spiral. This was a few years back and Im not sure how she's doing now. My point is that you are not alone. Not by a long shot. It doesn't have to make sense or have a reason to be real. Please just know you don't need to know all the deepest darkest wounds you are harbouring or face the seemingly endless web of how to fix them. Ive begun to realize that fixing the wounds of the past, the ones we know about, and the ones we don't, along with all of the methods to fix them, quantum healing, hypnosis, therapy, etc...only serves to keep the mind active and focused on yet another overwhelming task. I noticed something a while ago. I had the ability to do something fairly simple. I was able to look at a lake and see it the way I had seen it when I was a young child, 3-5 years old. Its is an experience that takes me to a place of instant peace, love and wholeness. The more I became aware of what I could do the more I tried to figure out how I was doing it so I could do it more. At one point I had concluded that, in a way I was taking my sight from within myself and was viewing the lake from... well... the lake. Like, from the middle. As if I had thrown my eyeballs into the lake and could see it from that point of view. Later, as I practiced more and more, I began to understand that I was looking at the lake for the sake of the lake without my busy mental filter. Without ego. I wasn't seeing the lake from my skewed point of view, I was just seeing the lake ... as child would do. As I did this more and more I began to be able to do it more often and for longer periods of time. One day I was gazing at the tress through my "child sight" and I suddenly became aware that not only where the tress so vibrant and 3D, but it was also the spaces in between...and I was in that space. This was a turning point for me. I suddenly realized that we are all connected and love is all there is. It is what binds us all and it is the only thing that is real. A while after that I read The Power of Now. It describes how there is no past, or future. There is only now. That is all there has ever been and all that there ever will be. This is a very true and peaceful mindset once grasped. It goes on to explain how one should only use their brain as a tool that should come out of the drawer only to fix a problem when necessary and the rest of time we should be guided by the quiet of our consciousness. I suddenly realized that this is what I had been doing all along in my so called child view states. I was already on the path to a place of peace and wholeness and I didn't even know it ! Ive now been practicing my "child view" more and more through the guidance of The power of now teachings and meditation. I sometimes walk around wondering how I will ever fit in again. But this time its not from a feeling of dread, but a feeling of bliss. I have come to understand this. It is true that love is all around us. It is true that it is for everyone. It is true that it is a living breathing tangible thing that everyone can experience. It is true that we are all one, no one is alone no mater how alone the mind may make us feel. We don't have to "repair' ourselves to live in a state of loving wholeness. We don't have to be overwhelmed with the idea that we need endless amounts of help and work to feel blissful peace and love everyday. I can not explain to you all that Ive been through and experienced. Like many people on youtube pages such as this, it would take a novel. But I can tell you that I have been through many inner and outer battles and trials and have been very lost and confused and at times very depressed. Ive tried many conventional and non conventional methods of healing to find my way and inner peace. All it ever did was answer a few questions in my thinking mind which inevitably lead to more questions and never brought me any kind of peace. Of all the things you have ever done to try to help your situation, and Im sure the list is endless, Im asking you to please read the power of now. The full audio book is on youtube, you don't even have to read it, just listen. If you've already read it, read it again. Then turn all of your focus to practicing the teachings of the book. I mean all of your focus, all of the time. If you do this I promise you that your life will not only change to a place where you feel "normal", but it will profoundly change to a into state of bliss way beyond the so called "normal" and it will happen FAST ! Once the concept becomes a natural habit and state, the snowball effect is unstoppable! Im sorry to have left such a long reply but your post really rattled me and I just found myself typing away. I know you can do this and I have a good feeling that things are about to turn around for you. God love ya xo PS one other thing that you may find helpful is to download the Synctuition ap. It helps to re wire the brain for intuition and clarity. If you don't already meditate this ap will put your brain into a meditative state without any effort and will clear the path for your own meditation. Plus its soooo nice and relaxing to listen to. It basically turns your mind into an amphitheater where you can literally feel the sounds in the centre of your brain. I began listening to it about a half a year ago and I feel like its really opened up some pathways in my brain. I just love it and I bet you will to

Going through the Shelter in and social distancing due to the covid19 pandemic took me into the dark night of the soul as well as a spiritual desert. Im still in it. Its a familiar friend that visits me makes me feel overwhelmed and lonely. It is very humbling to go through it but it is a spiritual awakening/strengthening. Your relationship with God goes to the next level. Focus on all your blessings, be grateful and kiss a crucifix of Jesus everyday when you wake up and before you goto bed. Your joy will come back.

When veils get lifted and more truths about our realm and existence get revealed, it truly gets (insert adjective here) Sometimes i feel enlightened and attempt to share that and knowledge with others, but only about 5-10% of them are receptive. My reaction is usually to retreat to isolation and more learning that leads to more insights and the loop continues

[@Cocoblklove]

I’ve had one dark night but this one feels different. I don’t know if it’s because I’m unhappy or if this is another DN in different form. So much of what your saying on here resonates but only to a certain extent. Its just unhappiness out the blue. It’s like i was just happy.. now this….

[@rachelmurphy4190]

This actually makes sense and I have suffered from depression before so I thought the signs I was seeing was that but it didn’t feel like it was if that makes any sense, I get chest pains, pains in my side, over emotional (like crying over a song because the lyrics where "I taken a step that seemed to far just for a chance to find out who we are") and lethargic. If felt like my body was telling me something is wrong so looked to Buddhism, sharmanism, old Nordic Philosophy and those of the ancient stoics which of course lead me here.

[@Andypandieful]

Definitely been in and out. For the most part I had an easy go of it. I feel I sorted quite a bit previously during raging panic attacks for years. For myself it is definitely more anxiety. But I feel heart ache bad!!

[@lloyd0frazier]

im not trying to be adversarial. im trying to raise the point that beliefs are not truths. we are all flawed and frankly ignorant to reality. we are less than perfect, and all thoughts and beliefs we have come from a place of insignificance and ignorance. even the point im trying to make is probably wrong. we are incapable of truly understanding anything.

[@kindspiritualbeing5987]

Namaste Jamie, I was born into religion (a JW) I left at 14 years old but the effects of their beliefs have lasted with me throughout my twenties and now I'm in my mid thirties I suffered from depression and anxiety which I thought it was and clinically was told it was but I believe this was the start of my spiritual awakening. Minimalism and wanting to be alone came to me back in 2015 which I didn't understand why at the time but now I'm starting to see why. 🙏❤️

[@calamari6046]

Hey, this is very interesting… I left home @ 14 too, due to rebelling against being forced to be a Jehovah’s Witness!! A year ago, my awakening was triggered - absolutely BLEW my mind this stuff exists…. I won’t lie though, this spiritual awakening has been BRUTAL. If I didn’t have 3 beautiful children, I’d give up. Thanks for your comments ❤️

Shelly, Meditation reprogrames the mind for a relaxed stress free life. Enter the following on Google search "Vipaasna 10 minute anapana meditation in English" and follow instructions. After a few days do it without the video sound. Sit on a chair, close your eyes, be still and focus on the incoming and outgoing breath at the entrance of your nostrils. A lot of thoughts will come but after some time negative thoughts will not impact you. S tress will vanish. Do the above meditation for 10 to 15 minutes early morning and evening. The free Vipaasna meditation centres are there all around the world. Do the above meditataion daily. Best wishes.

Happens that when we born we forget who we are and what we came to do people think that God doesn’t exits but reality is God choose who is going to come to this earth and fulfill a purpose or a task that you’re were need it to complete people isn’t thought that we’re tri dimensional Beings body, mind and spirit the mind is soul that contains all information the spirit is the breath of life that Unites Divine and human so God choose the time of birth, the place of birth, the family of birth, the task that you come to fulfill and when you’re aware of that you see that all the world standards n ways of living are contrary of the way that we supposed to be the land is free God doesn’t charge people to habitat Same with the food God doesn’t charge people for food but because some humans decided to impose a fake system to control we are being force to seek within and worry for the 3 real necessities in life that are Food, Shelter and Health

[@sundance1012]

I care about you. 🥰 Know much, much how it feels. I've had many Dark Nights. I learned, eventually, how to recognize I was in one after a month or few months, then I'd try to pull myself out of it. Some of my family members have turned against me, tell me to just snap out of it. Call it "my little problem," say "Just get over it." Mental health issues, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder & brain chemical imbalance run thru my family. But everyone denies they suffer, too, behave like they're perfectly fine & I'm the only one. I'm just the only one who has ever admitted that I suffer, gone for counseling, am on meds. Mental health stigma... alive & well. Having family gang up on & put me down makes it all 20X worse. And knowing they have much the same issues! Anyway, this last Dark Night was the absolute worse bcuz our family of families feuding was so awful. My DN was so dark & painful that I didn't even realize I was in one for 5 years. Finally hit me & I rather woke up & came out of the emotional coma. Knew what to do at that point. Everything still sucks with some of our stupid & mean in-laws & a few family members, but I keep trying to catch myself when I feel I'm being pulled into a new Dark Night of the Soul. Can't believe I remained unaware I was in one for 5 years last time.

@InfiniteLoveMeditationClub In my 40s, I had a spontaneous K Awakening, still going for around five years now. It was brought on by hours of meditation every day. I had no clue what it was. At various points, I thought that maybe I had Brain Cancer, ALS, Psychosis, etc. It took around 6 to 9 months for me to figure out (and accept) that it was Kundalini. It took a lot for my rational, Scientifically-oriented brain to come to this conclusion. The few close friends that I told really have trouble believing. One is a conservative Christian & one is Materialist. They believe that I "believe" it.
