  • @BlackCoffeeee

    Language is so important. In the English language, we say 'I AM depressed'. The sentence is structured to personally identify as depression. It is who we are. But, in the Irish language, for example, translated they say 'I have a depression ON me'. It separates the person from the depression and makes it a temporary and removable thing/object. It's a good way to explore how we identify and process something.

I wont go into Rick Simpson's high THC oil for curing cancer, but be aware that even CBD works synergistically along with radiation therapy. I'm talking from personal experience and would explore both before your sessions begin.

Maybe we should help them find housing as a first step..." And I also love the message that it's about managing negative emotions not never having them.

    Someone who's had a life long battle with neurological issues from epilepsy, anxiety, to depression. I might have once disagreed with Caroline on her thoughts of depression, but as someone who's went to the brink of it through 5-6 miserable years, she's right. Depression did feel like a "illness." It was something that I couldn't shake off. A mixture of nutrition and mental awareness got me through (Kefir, fermented foods, methylated folate, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, upped protein, and a general multivitamin.) Now as someone who's no longer EXPERIENCING those symptoms, things became clear on what it was in retrospect. I had to do research, explore life, and go through years of therapy.
    Practice mindfulness. Pay attention to your nutrition. Compare what you're not doing and objectively what a human body needs to be healthy, fill those nutritional and activity gaps. Your body needs exercise, nature, sunlight, human interaction, even when your mind doesn't feel like it. Often what your mind wants WILL BE at odds with what your body needs, sometimes even with reality itself if you don't keep yourself in check. Those feelings of
    "I have no energy..." "My body hurts too much to leave bed." "No one understands why I CAN'T do it! It hurts too much/I feel sick/I feel too sad/my body hurts/there's no where to walk/I'm afraid of leaving my house/I'm afraid of socializing/society is too cruel to interact with" "Exercising sucks. I don't want to be hot/sweaty/uncomfortable" (although some of them were true) were excuses.
    Baby steps. Find a way where you CAN do it. Start with the laziest, easiest, healthiest solutions, and build your habits off of that. Nutrition is REALLY REALLY important. Food effects your mood. If you follow any advice AT LEAST start with your vitamin levels. Those can raise your energy levels and mood just enough to get your foot in the door (to do the more difficult stuff like take a walk or go for a hike.)
    If you're in the thick of your depression, and you feel like there's no way out, there is. Start your personal journey. Clean up your life. Don't allow society to box you in. Grow yourself. The sunk-cost fallacy will ruin your life. We're allowed to change ourselves on a whim. Swap paths. Swap degrees. Social circles and careers. Free yourself.

So many things doctors aren't helping with, just slapping bandaids with medicines instead of looking for the root causes and working on rewiring your brain. The mind is a POWERFUL thing.

    Wow, I am blown away by her message and the work she has done. I used to have bad depression and battled it and went to south america to take ayahuasca and san pedro and it helped tremendously. Around that time I realized that I was not "ill" or "crazy", but that the depression and anxiety were messengers about my life. Once I met likeminded people that were having the same problems, because they didn't seem to fit in, I realized these were just symptoms for underlying problems. That view alone can help so much.

    3. Write- clusters of information
    4. Action- do limited amount of time for 63 days. Mind healing needs 3 cycles of 21 days. With messy mind healing takes 60% more time.
    Embrace and conceptualize the thoughts. Being aware of every 10 second-constant monitoring-self regulations. Brain building-mental and physical resilience-baby neurons responds to deep thinking-study deeply for an hour, anything challenges brain-improves neuroplasticity.

      I wonder if that means someone like me can be helped. I can’t remember much trauma when I was a child as I was a loved and a bit spoilt and over protected We did travel the world 🌎( army kid) a lot and I did so many different schools in so many different countries-I managed to have an average education Always remember feeling a bit disorientated with peoples different accents in the different countries ! Generally a happy child although quite sensitive - I was stunned and upset for days at 8years old when a women went to hospital to have a baby and a 👶 baby died. I can remember crying to my mum but I can’t remember her response.Although I’m sure she was she would’ve been understanding and tried to explain it. But the time I was 10 I was lying in bed (back in UK ) when the cat was out every single night I would lie in bed worrying that it would get killed when it was out but daytime I Arose and I was back happy again- Rebellious teenager time came I had a bit of trouble at school and although I wasn’t allowed to mix with boys I ended up with an older boyfriend I was 13 he was 19. I ended up having his baby at 17 and leaving him at 21 due to his continuous violence and he was violent even when I was a teenager. My friend can never understand why I wasn’t a spoiled brat as I always was sharing my things and was very considerate - I think I was trying to be the nice girl mum wanted - I had a sister 12-years older than me but it was obvious I was the favourite one. Anyway by then 21 I left with my child As managed to get away but I ended up with another guy who was emotionally abusive and alcoholic. I never see signs of this because I was so pleased to be away from the first marriage I had a son with husband no 2 Who was autistic maybe he was vaccination damage this started to think about all the vaccines that I had over the years because my main mind was always in a state of turmoil. My mother was always helping me and my kids with household chores and finance although they were on minimum wages .By that time I was working due to the alcoholic partner couldn’t keep a job and I was working in child residential care I learn about issues of attachment here.and then started to do an extra study my daughters boyfriend was able to help me with a written work for the first two years and my other friends from then on and I ended up with a degree in social work . I had the information but I could not put it into a coherent pattern so people could understand. After two relationships one was a mutual split up and the other one I was with a narcissistic type I have been in a job for 13 years. At this job my boss was very good at just playing to my strengths supporting people ideas creativity etc I had a strong urge to protect young people. When redundancy happened which was only three years ago I have already had three jobs and each time that confusion no I’m 62 is overwhelming, I have had a stroke when I was 59 but I have recovered well and I cannot say that My brain is any worse although it showed up on the scanner as I have brain damage. But how do they know that wasn’t done with the many blows to the head when I was with my first husband from 13 to 21? I have since been diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia but I’m not convinced of these things but I cannot see where I’ve had a Adverse childhood trauma. Because before my violent relationship at a young age - i was already very easy lead very easily fooled was very impulsive and naughty. Although my mum would never admit it. Oh my God the things I have tried medication but very short lived, the Dore program Which cost me nearly £2000 and they kept telling me that I was better on their charts but I never felt I was getting any better on a day-to-day basis. Yoga -meditation and some Machine that I plugged into my head and listen to strange noises. I’ve always managed to make friends and keep them but I often play the one down position and never challenge if I think my friends are wrong about something or very rarely or if I do I think my words very very carefully because I don’t wanna upset anybody. Both my children have grown up and had problems but thank goodness they’ve worked through them and even my son who is autistic hold a job and my daughter who used to drink is now sober and she’s holding a position as a Counsellor and I’m proud of them both. I count my blessings because I know that some people never had any love to fall back on from the family but I still don’t understand why my brain is like my brain. I really enjoyed what this lady said today and I’m going to buy a book ASAP I have countless books and brains et cetera but I hope this one is going to be the one I also hope to get my brain in gear because I’m on a trial now for this job and I’m going to go and try medication just so that I may cope until I can do something else. The problem is I feel is that I never really know the root cause and if I knew the root cause I think that makes the treatment clearer. Sometimes I have believed I have a brain dysfunction and I’m ADHD And sometimes I just think I’ve got a lazy brain and it’s been lazy for years. I forgot to mention I’ve also been to Peru and Holland and tried psychedelics , Psychedelics are meant to open the Connections to the neurons in the brain un the brain-the Ayahuasca and the Mushrooms. I still believe in those in the sense that they could help but of course I’m in UK so that’s a no-no now. I am also doing psycho psychotropic breath work but as with meditation and yoga my brain 🧠 just wonders off and I don’t keep my focus. So I’m really hoping this book 📚 is going to help

Watch the movie "Unbroken: Path to Redemption". This is part two of the original "Unbroken" by Angelina Jolie which is the autobiography of Louis Zamperini. He's not the only one who has been saved after being through hell and getting PTSD. But you must be open minded, have faith and do what is required, getting into a spiritual relationship with your loving Heavenly Father. He can give you peace joy happiness etc. like nothing else on earth can and you will be fulfilled. He can give you the fulfillment nothing else on earth can give which we try to find it in but can't because God is the missing piece to the question of who we really are. God bless!

    I have been on various medications for "bi-polar disorder" for 16 years. Through this podcast and Dr. Despenza I have learned so much. I had an episode this past year, was hospitalized and I am on 3 different drugs. I know that they have and are altering my brain. I feel horrible everyday, but are hard pressed to find a medical professional that will help me safely withdraw from the neurotoxins that I ingest daily. I feel until I'm free of the drugs neuroscience will not help. I have abruptly stopped in the past and it was disastrous. With the aid of a doctor I tried to withdraw but he withdraw too much too soon, another disaster. I want desperately to get my life back. I hope that someone can see this comment and help. In the meantime, I continue to pray, meditate, and force myself to exercise, and am learning how to eat properly. Thank you Lewis for all you do for us. Continued blessings.

And it's difficult for most people to get into that state of mind most are too self consumed dealing with their own life and whatever justification drives them to continue abusing. It takes huge amounts of strength & bravery to get to the CORE of these very personal (hence societal issues) and change for the better once a person has gone down that path, but It can be done!! I know so many who haven't continued the generational cycle of abuse because they remembered how it felt to be beaten, raped, forced to use drugs by their parents or others they trusted and made a vow to NEVER make another feel as horrible as they felt. One person I know was 8 yrs old when he made that choice to never be like his father. And he had been tricked a number of times by his father to drink alcohol by the age of 5 yrs. old because his father thought it was funny to watch his little boy stumble & slur. This young boy never became an alcoholic like his father, never forced alcohol on his children or anyone else. He broke the cycle and he is one of so many unsung heroes in our world!

Now, there are people with the same condition whom experience maniac episodes differently, often doing things they'll potentially regret shortly after, in those cases unfortunately they can't stop medication for their own safety, however, I've met many people with the same condition that did pretty good with the same copying mechanisms I've adopted, it all boils down to how you experience your maniac episodes and how long have you been taking your meds and which meds you were taking, lithium is a mood stabilizer not necessarily an antipsychotic, now if besides lithium you've been prescript antipsychotic meds as well then I'd take it easy, start doing the same things I mentioned above like diet, sleep and so on while slowly decreasing the doses of your meds every other month, if you've been on meds for two years or longer for example, it'll take at least a year to go totally off the meds safely by the decreasing doses process, but it's still worth trying.

      This is still spiritual the way she is talking she explains both the spiritual and the science behind it. In reality science is the exploration of things we know exist but can't prove until we do; The things unseen by the naked eye. There are those who would say they don't believe in souls. And you ask them why and they will say because i can't see it with my eyes or touch it with my hands and until i do i won't believe....okay.. But you are willing to believe in Atoms and Radioactive energy and can you see these things with your naked eyes.
      No. But that's different. i know they exist.
      Since most people aren't scientists and you are an average person like myself how do you know this personally? ...
      Well i trust the understanding of a scientist who went to school. I mean they study the sciences and the things that we can't see.
      Okay but once nobody understood that things existed either until it was discovered. And i say well you still can't see it with your own eyes so how can you believe what this science is showing you is accurate? Theories are disproved all the time I mean look at Aristotle some of the theories he built up were quite sound in his time and were later disproven by other great minds.
      Okay yeah i see your point. Are you saying there are no absolutes?
      No I'm saying that every day you use a combination of faith and science with how you think and your very mind itself is a spiritual thing. Hence is why i believe that we all have a soul. I mean look at the marvel of electricity. It has always been here and there and so sometimes it is not about what you can see or touch but what you can feel when you reach down to the very core of your being and you search for a knowledge that is as old as Time. There are truths we know on a primal or spiritual level. And this woman has given an insightful explanation of the force and power of our mind. But by explaining the difference between the mind and the brain, she explains that the mind is a separate entity a force of its own. This is our mind ourselves our true essence. Separate from our brain and not physical.

    We have been so immersed in the need to have a reason/excuse/valid problems; and many of us are terrified that we will lose the help (especially financial) we have been given so we can survive and function with our 'disability' what if we can't make it without this help, if we actually make improvements. We have been taught--or willingly accepted that we are damaged, defective and are victims. Who benefits from our dismissing or believing that we can not be much more capable than we currently are long term we individually do not benefit.

    This is a game-changer. I think the most important take-away from this was at 48 minutes. Paraphrasing: Don't be afraid of your bad feelings and experiences. They are only messengers telling you something. If you respond to them as such, you control them. If you respond with fear, they control you, and then you'll get stuck.
    Many things mentioned here I have either thought about or done instinctively, but telling others about my advances they have told me I'm crazy. They say there is nothing one can do by oneself to feel better. Conclusion of this talk: it's not just possible to learn how to feel better by oneself, it's the bl**d* responsibility for everyone in order to make this thing we call Earth a better place.

    When I worked as a counselor I found one of the most harmful things people did to themselves consisted of the untrue damaging self-talk they kept repeating to themselves about a situation or a person. The dialogue between counselor and client (even a child) and figuring out where that self talk came from is what frees them from what I would call "strong holds in the mind." I never thought of it as changing neurology. And yes, poor sleep habits and a processed foods diet will make you feel terrible and sorta crazy all by its self.

      I can.
      I started becoming aware of negative self talk after listening to Eckhart Tolle, but didn't realize the extent of it until I started monitoring my thoughts. Initially, I caught myself once in a while, then it became more frequent, often just after it happened and other times well into the monologue. With ongoing monitoring, I became aware of it sooner and more frequently, and finally was catching myself when it was starting. The act of conscious awareness diminished their frequency and dissolved the chatter. Today, couple of years later, I have very few negative thoughts and catch myself immediately as they arise and watch them dissolve. I suspect due to its cessation, I feel much better less stressed and anxious and the circular thinking just a faint and distant memory.
      The most important lesson I've learned for those suffering from anxiety is the advice of an Australian doctor who was a victim herself and actually an early pioneer of CBT - cognitive behavior therapy. You don't need to spend time and money on therapy trying to uncover the causes of your trauma, just confront the fear and anxiety and start to accept it with submissive SURRENDER. The panic/anxiety attacks will diminish in frequency and potency sooner than SSRIs would kick in and leave you empowered. The woman was an angel and helped thousands of people in America with her radio shows from Australia. Her name is Claire Weekes and her audios are available free on YT and I recommend starting with => "Dr Claire Weekes - Pass through Panic". Her method works and it will help you for the rest of your life.

She doesn't accept the law of attraction as typically taught, which I do, but she does believe as I do that there are some circumstances outside of our control because we are subject to the agency of others, to the natural forces of nature, to our sacred eternal contracts we formed in our premortal world.

But you must be open minded, have faith and do what is required, getting into a spiritual relationship with your loving Heavenly Father. He can give you peace joy happiness etc. like nothing else on earth can and you will be fulfilled. He can give you the fulfillment nothing else on earth can give which we try to find it in but can't because God is the missing piece to the question of who we really are. God bless!

    My granddaughter gave me an orchid 2 years ago , the first I've ever had, it started to bud and flower last year and I've never felt such delight over something so trivial but it brought me so much happiness 💖 so I'm so excited this year im keeping a close eye on it 🧐🙏

    OMG, I feel like Dr. Leaf is my Soul Sister! I'm also 38 1/2 years into my delving into the Mind. I literally spoke at a conference in 2016 about "Trauma & the Brian/Mind/Body Connection." And she's the only other person other than me who talks about the danger of Forgiveness. I say it's more important for the other person to Apologize, but I love how she says you can just say you've Released it. Only difference is the techniques we use. I need to connect with her!!!

    I have dealt with depression for 15 years I'm 47 now and I have found the depression is like a pattern of thought you get into a negative cycle and keep thinking the same negative thoughts over and over again

    • @wesolowskimatt
      @wesolowskimatt 3 года назад +1

      Not always the same, sometimes or maybe should I wrote, in some cases, it's like a creative rampage of negative thoughts which always lead to one conclusion. The conclusion that everything is pointless, that every system is broken, tainted with stupidity and saturated with corruption.

      Current neuroscience has found that the brain is wired to achieve homeostasis. If you have an emotion (and all emotions are transmitted through neurochemicals), that is repeated for a length of time, the brain chemicals associated with that emotion are seen by your body as normal and, therefore need to be sustained. You will subconsciously find situations that reinforce those feelings and produce those brain chemicals. It is an actual addiction. One must actively pull away from situations that reinforce the addiction and replace them with new stimuli. EFT is very helpful.

      it's hard to even describe how wrong this is. Chemo and radiation stay with you for life...millions have died from these so-called cures, and there are a million videos on youtube against these scams...yet real medicine like Dr Rife tech which is like putting water on fire when used properly are completely (nearly) unheard of in the mainstream...I am so glad I escaped childhood cancer because I KNOW both my parents would of lined me up for a lifetime of medical issues by doing the same thing you allowed to your daughter...however I would of survived that too...what I went through was severe enough.
