I saw this and thought it was appropriate, not only in general but also for those in the meta/spiritual community.
It made me realize how my mental illness affects what I say, what I think, and how I feel (or can’t feel in some cases). You’ve noticed my attitude here, and that’s only the tip of the iceberg of how I think. I’ve had counseling before, and taken meds for years, but it doesn’t stop the constant negative barrage.
Maybe now though I can start being more aware of it, the “noisy brain,” and try to push it aside or shrug it off rather than believing in it.
I also realized that I hadn’t been appreciative enough to you all, as I thought about how many times you have encouraged me “not to think such things” about myself. Like I’m in a negative feedback loop and pretty much ruining my experience.
Of course all this mind chatter makes it hard to distinguish messages from who-what-where, and I had convinced myself of some pretty awful and silly things in regards to the spiritual.
Sure there’s still skepticism involved, but I’ve gotta let some of this shit go. Just not having any breakthroughs is making it hard to build myself up.

That's interesting, I just watched a video yesterday with one of them in it about this subject, here: " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Thanx for sharing this article.
