the ancient Greeks used to consider bipolar disorder as a divine gift from the gods! A divine gift! Wow! That’s WAY different than how we are looked at today. How fascinating. “Mania” and “melancholia” were among the first two diseases ever categorized. Even Socrates and Plato understood that mania was a divine state with various characteristics such as “erotic inspiration” sent from the god of love or “proteptic inspiration” derived from the Muses. They even go on to say that the god Apollo is the source of this divine inspiration! If the greatest minds of all time said that that’s good enough for me ✌️
Yep. Thank you for making this. Everyone freaked out when I'd say "that thing is talking to me" or "that relates to me". But it made sense - I just didn't have the words for it. And my family would say "You're psychotic!" and meet me with outrage. It can get really scary for me, but also I've experienced what I can only describe as being in heaven - or perceiving as GOD - where I am just so taken by a beautiful truth that my physical body can not handle it and I will cry, almost have to get up and move, or I may just view things as being INCREDIBLY profound that I otherwise might have overlooked. I've had several "psychotic episodes" where the truth of my existence and reality and my divine importance was shown to me time and time and time again as if the universe was saying "HEY! WAKE UP!" and though it can be terrifying, once the ego drops a bit I can see that it isn't GOOD vs. BAD but rather just two different ways of looking at something. Man... this shit goes deep, and it can definitely overwhelm. I recall coming "back" from these trips in the hospital having almost no identity at all - feeling soulless and having to re-remember what life and joy and opinions are.
Thanks for your comment. It helps to see it as another state of consciousness I think. And it is possible to derive wisdom from it, but not when we are in the middle of it. Then it will seem crazy to others and ourselves even. And some of it is pure craziness. But that doesn't mean that the energies aren't real. Bless and best of luck to you on your path ✨
Great video. You're a very wise individual. I've had 5 bipolar episodes that resulted in hospital confinement. The first was very frightening, I didn't know what was happening, and I had a lot of lower vibration energy and trauma that needed to be cleared. An experience like that can make you totally lose your connection with reality. Each episode since, I've become more in tune with the energy... learning to fear the experience less, and trying to avoid getting so into it that I get psychotic, or start talking about signs or symbols that gets family and friends putting me in the hospital. My last episode just a couple months ago was very positive, though I was still getting excited about my ongoing construction of a new world view that I went past that space again into nearly falling into the synchronicity completely. Thank you for the time you spent to share your wonderful thoughts with us. Good luck on your ongoing journey.
I love this! So much clarity and awareness around the condition of Bipolar. The best thing we can do for the planet and each other is to heal ourselves!
I too beloved that I've been subject to a spiritual awakening, and though I'm currently medicated and un able to access that level of consciousness, I feel that we are not far away from a great awakening. It will not be human at first, but from our creation.
Hi Lou, thank you so much for your helpful videos, love watching you. What you say about moving fast at a soul level, so that the physical self on this earth can't follow, rings so true. That's exactly how I felt. We are spiritual beings having a human experience, not the other way round:)
Hello! I want to tell you how wonderful I think your videos are! I've just come off my bipolar medication about 3 weeks ago because I felt Spirit telling me I didn't them. Everything you describe in your videos coincides with my experiences and I was just so happy to find you a couple of days ago. Your video about ayahuasca also gave me a lot of hope. I had looked into microdosing as a treatment path but it seemed like everyone said it doesn't mix with bipolar. This was so discouraging to me because I felt like it was unfair that other people get to have such a beautiful experience but I'm not able to because of "how my brain is wired". I'm not ready to decide if I want to take the leap because I understand the potential dangers but I'm so glad to see you have done it and are ok! I'm sure I'll do it eventually in this life when Spirit says it's time. Much love, M
Hey Michelle, I just read your comment and I realized that this is the thing I am currently going through rn. I personally feel like I don’t need medication for my bipolar disorder anymore but I’m afraid to get off of them and take the leap bc of what my psychiatrist says and the fact that it might come back. So I wanted to ask you (since it’s already one year that you’re off medication) how you’re doing and what your alternative treatments for bipolar disorder are if you found any? And another question I have is: did you relapse since getting off your medication? If you feel like sharing your experience it would be really wonderful for me to get some advice and inspiration before I take the leap and talk to my psychiatrist about going off medication. Thanks a lot! :)
I believe that I am another who was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder (type 2) when I was actually experiencing a spiritual awakening. Thank you for this thoughtful analysis. It helps to know that you are out there and understand.
I remember I was seeing demons and feeling them around me. And even thinking I was one and they were trying to get me. And I would feel death around me. One time I felt death to the point where it made me feel so uncomfortable I wanted to cry. Then moments later I seen a huge car accident. But what you speak is true. This journey is painful because I know that even if I wanted to go back I simply cannot. It consumes me. This is my life. But at the same time it’s the best decision I’ve made.
I think balance is key for people who have two extremes. It's almost like bringing the 5D into the 3D. My patner fits this criteria and i try to keep her grounded whilst at the same time being concious. But it can be hard for me at times as I sort of get pushed away on the highs after expending my energy in their lows but have to be extra there for her on the lows. If i tried to tell her about this video to try and help, she would deny that she needs help or advice to balance herself for the best.. It's hard loving someone like this as a relatively balanced concious healthy being. I also get misunderstood a lot and lots of stuff projected into me. Thanks for the video. Im trying to undrtstand.
Wooow, everything you said I have been going through, the demonic possession was one of them, I told to doctors, and I am at a mental hospital now. There were things with logic I could explain, but others I couldn't. This entities, as my own shadow and traumas tried to make me lose my mind and like forget who I was, but I get out of that feeling and then, I think angels or light beens or my guide helped me and brought me here, then I felt safe and I am getting better. As well I did a lot of purging and shadow work. I thought about going back to normal life, but I can not, i don't know why I am just drane to the spiritual path and I am trying to find out why? May be I am lighworker... I don't know... But every point that you said, I have been through, is very scary, but I always think " doesn't matter how many times I fall, or fall into darkness, I will fight and find my way back to God" Thank you very much for this video, because, sometimes I don't know if it was real or not, this just confirms me I am not crazy. Thank you 🤗
stumbled across your videos. was in a very bad state. your video helped me a lot just sitting crying and listening to you. sometimes i wonder if those synchronicities are like a rope to get out of depression - or i hope. :-). respect for sharing all that youre awesome.
I relate so much. Once I got into spiritual practice and stopped my meds I became SO much happier and felt SO much more free. I was also way less depressed and sick according to everyone around me
This was soooo Good! I am going to watch this many times so i remember your good advice. So i dont start to fly again 😊👍 (or living a boring strict dull life until i cant stand it anymore 😂)
I packed my bags and moved to Amsterdam following my awakening, and it all happened in much a heightened state that I was admitted to a ward and then deported home- so can definitely relate to the whole 'moving to Costa Rica' analogy haha
Haha... well I think we have all been there (not in Costa rica) but... wanting to make sudden changes. We have to go slow even though the mind is fast. :)
Thank you for these videos..can you tell me if you are on medication..If not how long were you taking them when you decided to taper off..also how did your psychiatrist react ,support your decision. .keep posting please .
I've always had really bad anxiety but it's been manageable. Yesterday I got a really bad panic/anxiety attack. I still feel like I'm going mad 😣 it's not easy
I think the whole world is in anxiety right now, so you are definetly not alone. Its not easy, for sure. But we find our tools to deal with it better along the way.
I really need help I’m going to a spiritual awakening right now and I am bipolar and I’m taking medication I’m starting to realize that I don’t need to take medication because it’s not the wrong with me that the experiences that I’m going through is causing me to awaken the depression and anxiety and feeling a loss the grief and despair is all part of the Dark Night Of the soul so my question to you is is taking bipolar medication is it going to affect my wake up I already have ability of being a light worker as well as an empath and I’ve been seeing an extraordinary Angel numbers like 1111 and 222 etc. etc. Or should I still keep taking my medication? Because I really starting to wonder if the medication is man’s way of preventing people from experiencing spiritual Awakening after all we are in a spiritual war
Hi Jacob! Im sorry to hear that you are struggling. Maybe watch the video about how I healed bipolar naturally to get some ideas? I also do 1 on 1 cosching sessions online if you are interested. Bookings through Facebook. Taper slowly if you decide to taper (I mean like superslow). And remember that healing takes time and is messy. Peace brother!
