How Do I Cope With This?We Answered:
My friend, you need to tend to your psychic barriers. At the moment, you are feeling all the pain of all creatures, and in this life you are not equipped to do that. In order to live this present life in the position in which you have been placed, you must learn to filter what reaches your senses. You must shut out the voices of the broken souls so that you can hear your own thoughts and fulfill your own destiny.Most souls come into bodies and minds with filters and barriers intact. It seems that yours have been lost or damaged, so you must put forth energy from with your own conscious control in order to protect yourself. Strong barriers define who you are as distinct from other beings. Effective filters allow you to focus on your own sensations without confusion with sensation that do not belong to you.
There are some good psychologists who understand these things. Look for a wise, old soul well steeped in Jungian theory and familiar with the languages of mythology. You will communicate well with this person. If medicine is recommended, be careful, but do not refuse it too quickly. If your psychic defenses have been weakened by an accident of the physical body, by a flaw in biochemistry or energy imbalance, medications can set matters right. Remember that many of the oldest, best medications were compounded by wise women and men from plants, roots and barks that grow in the earth. The earth's wisdom is healing.
Be strong, but also be humble, my friend. You were not sent here to struggle on your own. Others will be sent to help you, and they must also fulfill their destiny.
Be hopeful. Be blessed.
