Why Depression & Dark Phases Are Good For You -

[@basicbase749]

Dark night of the soul is a part of spiritual awakening, also called spiritual depression. I had my dark night of the soul and it was the most painful experience of my life, even major setbacks and loss was nothing in front of it. I went through it completely alone, living in a foreign country on my own, not a single person around who I could talk to. I became suicidal. Having everything, still I felt completely homeless, lost, lonely, disconnected, I didn't know who I was anymore. I belonged nowhere. I felt completely invisible, and I felt extremely sad or numb. I cried a lot. I also became self-destructive to feel less numb. I longed for a home/place in the universe. But when this started to get over, I felt like a rebirth happened, I became a different person, my choices changed, I couldn't connect with anything old. Thankfully, I found my way back to my family with time. The only way to survive it is to surrender to the universe, surrender your ego.

[@notsotechie7412]

I went through something similar last year dunno if it's dark night of the soul but it was back to how things used to be after a while just even the family ignored my existence at that time... I had my arm almost slit after 1/2hours of lying with the aftermath after I woke up..I went all alone to the hospital and got stuff done..Honestly I went in a trance like state that time... tbh I've been through situations before too but would never actually attempt suicide you know... I felt like... something possesed that left me after seeing blood.. But there's nobody or nothing similar to explain this..

To be fair, when im realy depressed, sometimes crying for a minute or so isnt enough. I dont feel relieved afterwards in the ways maybe i would have in the past and go back to feeling desperatly depressed

[@grungyblues]

Never have I thought that I would ever be depressed in my life. I was a bright happy go lucky boy but destiny had other plans for me and I have been now depressed for almost a decade, yes 10 Fkng years'. The initial phase was very dark and my suicidal thoughts were powerful. You remain isolated in your room, you stop working, you push away friends and help to come your way and your family has a hard time watching you slowly giving up on life, you either end up taking your own life or transform into a ZOMBIE like me...DEPRESSION IS NO JOKE...EACH DAY IS A FIGHT...

Damn Ranveer, no matter how much people troll you (including me and I admit this), your podcasts actually help me a lot. Take this video for example. This video of just 12mins changed my perception of not just about depression but actually of a lot of other things. Thanks a lot for bringing people like Luke Coutinho in your podcasts who can understand people's mind so well. I'm a teenager and as a teenager, I've countless problems(the problems which most teenagers face) but I'm really happy to say that I genuinely learn a lot from your channel. The insights of these people help me a lot to understand things about myself which I've not thought of until now. Once again, thanks a lot Ranveer for doing these podcasts and I hope your channel grows more so that more people can take these insights and learn from them 🙏

Hello TRS(To Repair Self)clips, I found this content,by accident, this message by Doc Luke hit me straight like a bullet,I am not dying with a point blank range shoot out,but will sustain the injury and fight back,that will be the discovery from the surface value of the soul and beyond,It’s so comforting and soothing,to find such content.. This one gave me a chance to look beyond the scope of our mindless chatter and pointless arguments with self..It’s that easy to communicate with one’s soul.. Good job!!

[@engineerofemotions1183]

Thanks a lot from this valuable conversation.....I hit my rock bottom in dec 2022, facing repeated setbacks and found myself alone in the darkness, faced seven years of serve depression and anxiety disorder from 2016 to 2022. I always believe that there us sb left to be said. I suppressed my adverse feeling bcz of social stigma. But from Jan 2023 I decided to prioritise my mental health and started medication and meditation. Now m on a better pace, more spiritual and filtered than my old version. Now I realised all it's happened to make me emotionally strong. I always believe in such deep conversations from persons who speak from soul. We can be more happy and satisfied with right knowledge and right spirituality. I also want to be a wellness and fitness coach and will be there to motivate people. We needs more healthy conversations like this😊😊

[@aditidwivedi6719]

Hey finally found someone who’s bad phase in life is a long one, I always thought that other people face problems for a few months or a year and then their lives get lovely, but me on the other hand is facing set backs for about 2-3 years now. Doing meditation and all is great but what to do when your poor mental health is caused by external environment where you have no control over?

[@nilighosh158]

This is so insightful. Thank you. Crying is a cathartic experience leading to relief from distress, has deep roots. Crying is a self soothing behaviour. Some people feel numb when someone dies, and feel intense grief much later. We all find our own way of coping with the feelings that surround death.

[@mrbishtt]

well at some point in our lives, we go through dark phase of life where you hit the Rock bottom, it may differ for individuals but it's true that i have had in my late 20s, some may be calling it mid age crisis- but yes you are not ok with whatever is already going on in your life, you don't need that favourite person, nor the favourite food, neither the money or that material stuff, people around you -- i guess its more about your inner self start asking you questions its awakening of inner voice inside you which probably have been in hibernation, this journey has to be done all alone, you suffer, you are in pain, you have to do your part and there is no shortcut, after myself being in that situation for almost 2 years i discovered new me with new perspective of my lives and honestly I don't miss my teen days anymore but embracing the new changes, every self aware person will go through this and the pain, suffering is worth going through as in the end of the tunnel new you is waiting ❤

[@jaideepnegi6881]

Crying really works when nothing help. It immediately shift ur mood from grief to a feeling of lightness n freshness. We forget abt this amazing physiological reaction of our body. I re-found about it in a Osho course called mystic rose, which involve crying session and laughing sessions of 3 hrs.
