RE: I used to compensate for my anxiety and my illness... and it hurt me more than it helped

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Sam, some minds can be highly obsessed with fearful thoughts to the extent of becoming intolerable. Most people who possess such minds take medications, drugs or alcohol in a bid to find some relief from its incessant noise. If you are among the people who are in possession of a mind obsessed with negativity and fear, you might want to look at it as your “ticket” to true freedom or enlightenment, rather than looking at it as curse. A highly noisy mind can be a blessing in disguise, because you cannot become attached to such a mind and hence there’s an opportunity to “transcend” it completely and realize the true liberation that lies beyond the mind. True freedom :)

Love that perspective! I am grateful for my story but no longer attached to it. A very important distinction that is necessary to move THROUGH the discomfort. Appreciate all your encouragement here! Thanks for the RS! :)

Sam, you have been born with such a mind, now there is no point in asking why. In truth, everything is grace including your noisy mind. A mind which is obsessed with fear can become the very mirror that helps you see your true nature and thus wake up from the dream of identification with the false sense of “Me”.

No worries on the encouragement thing. I can feel you have so much to contribute here. Your an extremely soulful woman, so "Steem on!" S.<3
