Wow so glad I found this. My first episode I was in a deep meditative state and I started journaling and I really connected to God and nature and was just receiving major downloads through journaling. The morning of my psychosis it was like I wrote a message to myself that said “do not doubt you’re spiritual awaking will happen 5/24/20” I didn’t know that was psychosis and it happened that same day. I honestly thought I was crazy I had multiple more episodes that ONLY happen when I seek answers and deeply connect/ mediate with God. I was diagnosed with bipolar 1 and was label As “manic” I thought I was crazy until the things k was feeling in the episodes about the world and state. Soon were confirm by dreams back to back after my psychosis. I don’t know man. But I’m starting to feel like I’m not actually “crazy”

I see now after watching this that it was posted 7 years ago. I have clinical depression and ADD diagnosis. I am a huge fan of Gabor Mate. I read his book and listen to his views on addiction all the time. In my own journey, what I find interesting is the way in which my views changed. From being a militant atheist pushing away everything that seemed pseudo, to be being extremely spiritual due to seeing, hearing and experiencing reality differently.

It's not only impressive how the universe lead me to this video/conversation at this time on this day, yet it has been soothing and comforting to know... Like whoah...theres other people out there that know EXACTLY what I've been going through my whole life. I have seen spirits, shadow people ever since I was a child even energy until this day works and reacts to my presence whether it's a smoke detector going off on it's own when I'm in danger or a hallucination rather a message being received through a vision...a vivid dream or nightmare while Im wide awake, being predicted and ultimately true. This has made perfect sense to me regardless of being medicated for Complex-PTSD, SCHITZ, Anxiety, depression & OCD. My family rejects me due to my visions & predictions being valid to the point where doctors only blame drugs yet medicating me with worse side effects ..made sense?? They not only made only made me more sensitive and in tune with the earth's electromagnetic field & able to be an antennae to the spiritual realm. It's been a lifelong struggle and challenging aF to live through a hell on earth when considering maybe I'm not cRaZy, and the possibility that maybe i've just been surrounded by @ssholes. So i started writing journals of my episodes and what I would hear, even recording my episodes or taking pictures.. coincidentally the voices replay and the silhouettes of people appear around me. Yet these voices/spirits have told me the levels of Covid before it happened to now even the treatment or cure. I'd rather be an experiment and spiritually guided instead of taking prx when pharmaceuticals in my opinion not only decrease my life expectancy by 10-20 years but pharmaceuticals create customers and not cures. Energy remains and vibrates through frequencies.. next week, I'm going to a research study for PTSD in Long Beach and I'm hoping now it's with anyone involved on this panel. Thank u for sharing this conversation. After several failed efforts of lacking to find guidance for spiritual or holistic healing and a deeper understanding for this *gift, I am thankful and looking forward to transcending my disorder into a controlled gift if theres any purpose behind my life or power if I dont come back afterwards a failed lab experiment. Wishing u all an amazing journey and my thoughts well intended. Thank u

I would like to tell a story: Last year I had a client come to see me. At the time she was in psychiatric care and went out of the facility for the day. When I met her her arms, legs and belly were covered in scars from self harming. It looked like she had been wrapped up in barb wire. As I enquired into her family history, with my systemic constellation hat on, she spoke of perpetrator and victim (German and Polish) on either side of the family. She also spoke about a Great Great grandfather who had been wrapped up in barb wire and drowned by the Germans. Now our body tells the family story, so the self harming was remembering what had happened to this GGF, so in acknowledging him, through a simple systemic visualisation she stopped self harming. Next session we dealt with not being able to sleep for more than 2 hours - that was Grandma who was trained out of Poland and had to run for her life, with 7 children. The next session we dealt with the how she was being a perpetrator to herself, that was Grandfather who was responsible for collecting Jewish possessions. She now lives a very rich life, and is a successful brewer, yoga teacher and crafts woman. What story does our symptoms tell of the family that needs to be seen? www.awakening.com.au/course/family-systemic-constellations

Thank you so much for this great work that you all are doing. I too experience bipolar and it has turned into the most spiritual part of me and I do believe fully that it is spiritually based. Yes, I take meds but, that does not change the fact that it is a part of me that I feel is actually very special. Bipolar has made me who I am and I am proud of who I have become through my challenges. I am currently writing a book to help inspire others to take a different and more positive look at so-called mental illness. Keep up the great work. My experiences have actually brought me closer to the higher power and I would not change a thing about myself.

I'm curious about this idea that bipolar has a spiritual aspect. From my point of view connecting with God would also mean connecting with all sentient life in a reverent way, with grace and a sense of peace towards all else with a heightened awareness of others beyond their egos. This doesn't seem to be how people experiencing bipolar relate to others. I don't experience it but I'm wondering whether my own interpretation is close at all: to overcome deep separation through experiencing trauma in childhood or the pain of separation however it came about, a gift is given by sacrificing other aspects of self, and the person experiencing the natural consequence of loss as depression has periods of mania or euphoria as a way to overcome the blindness of depression and becomes blindly euphoric to compensate. Able to tune into another part of reality. But that it is not the whole truth much like depression isn't. How this can then lead to a person having a character where they aren't abusive, irritable, delusional, paranoid, if you believe it's due to the system and others interacting with the person experiencing bipolar, is how I might be more able to digest the self described "spiritual aspect" of bipolar. I presume you mean it's a way of knowing a beautiful aspect of reality but the fact that invincibility is perceived in individuals when manic suggests delusion and ego not the balanced awareness of the body mind and soul. No?

Thank you so much, Crazywise, for the film, the research, the sharing and these discussions. One of the first questions was 'what changes do we want and how do we make the changes needed'. I think you highlighted the necessary changes in the film - the need for more support, openness and acceptance for each other. The main reason that western society sedates and locks mental health patients away, is fear. The same reason why we lock away criminals instead of trying the best we can to understand the reasons for their behaviour. For too long we've been trying to 'fit' people into a box - to mold people into the shape that our societal structure requires for what we think are order and control (which basically means suppression of any 'aberrant' thoughts, feelings and actions). And to make these changes happen - I think they are happening naturally. The more we try to suppress what comes naturally to each individual, the more pressure builds for that nature to express itself somehow. So building more supportive networks like you've done here, is like a pressure valve and allows for a true and very real expression of who each of us is. It brings acceptance which is so needed in today's world. Thank you again for this beautiful work.

I'm 67 years old and going through this again and again over the course of my life...it has brought me to suicide...feels like there's something I'm just not GETTING...the level of fear is terrifying...and there is no one to help me...all the spiritual seeking and epiphanies and experiences fly right out the window and it feels like I'm wrestling with demons and forces of darkness...psychiatry has been worse than useless, it's been demeaning and harmful and disempowering in every way...I loath the mental health care system ..I'll probably end up a suicide as there is no value in trying to save an old woman like me...

I really wish I had information or knew about your network when I went through my own emergence. Beautiful to know you provide support and awareness for those going through it. It makes all the difference,it can actually change the experience and steer it more positively.

This is what the world needs, people who can share their experiences to help others. Everyone should have the opportunity to connect with pears to overcome their mental issues. Cultural impacts during early development shape people's brain chemistry thus is important to explore peeple's life history because the cause root of my mental issues may bring answers (remedies) to someone else psicotic mind. PSYCHIATRIC COLONIALISM hs implemented a corporate based medical system that has been erasing the most important cultural knowledge that our ancestors used to healt themsevels from traumas. (Medication harm a lot of people, and are exagerating compare to their posisitve results ) LISTEN TO PEOPLE PEOPLE.

My long strange trip began in adolescence… There was child sexual abuse, social, alienation, and at one point they had me on Thorazine. Then along came psychedelics. But for better or worse when I looked around in my adolescent certainty, I said this world is nuts… And I have pretty much stuck to that view ever cents. That the world is made up of a majority of people who are just very well adjusted to a world. That’s nuts but it’s still nuts. My investigation into this great situation, which started in adolescence continues to this day, and it was really great to see that so many professionals are starting to come around to the back. Teenager only sensed, but could never articulate to hear. It. Articulated now is very rewarding. Keep up the good work. PS. Fortunately, I took it to an obsession with reading and books like Joseph Heller is catch 22 who is in my back pocket for a long time.

Abraços do Brasil! Obrogado pelo trabalho de vocês.

Is this film still available? I myself experienced psychosis over a year ago. I saw my childhood trauma projected externally, had auditory experiences, and saw various images etc in my mind. It was absolutely terrifying and no one really understood what was going on, and I didn't receive much support from the people around me. I was living in Ireland at the age of one during the civil war there - saw men with guns, my pram was checked for bombs and my dad wasn't around and due to security reasons could have no contact with us. I sexually abused at the age of four and experienced domestic violence in my house growing up, amongst other toxic relationships and bullying. I believe my mind and body couldn't cope with the amount of stress and was crying out for help. I've had many spiritual experiences also, which many people could not help me understand. If you have any suggestions on ways I could help others through this process apart from the film, please do let me know. I've recently qualified for Hypnotherapy and am doing my Reiki 2 next month in the hope it will all come together. Thanks x

A VERY refreshing, honest discussion about one of the most important and relevant realizations❣ How we view and understand what is happening to us through our awakening, evolving human experiences and why.

Great conversation! Thank you!

SO IMPORTANT

For me it’s like going blind and being in their realm and psychosis can be pleiadean.

Stockholm syndrome. many have it. violence in home is epidemic. no one is mad, but humanly responding to try to survive terror & intimidation...the impact of domestic violence affects children not just adults

How do you see the film? Thanks.

What you think about Jung's psychology ?

Where can I watch the film?

My son is going through something that I believe is something spiritual and has been hospitalized several times and cannot be given a definite diagnosis and medications are not helping. They only seem to be harming him more. He has had a transplant 13 years ago and is experiencing rejection recently and his Drs are saying physical health is more difficult to treat because of his mental health. If someone could please give me a place to turn to try and get him the help he needs.

what happens to people after the psychosis /awakening? is the energy still in your body? can they or should they pursue further in spirituality practice or should they stop?

Sokha Prom I stopped briefly.. but months later was able to ease into it again. I had psychosis after deep spiritual research.. but the meds my dr had me on messed me up too. I had no idea it would make me sick. I was just looking for love for God I was in a bad place and needed help and it came! But I had to work out a lot of stuff and it was really hard. Plus withdrew off 3 meds. Back to back. I stayed away from anti psychotics took none. I bounced back within a week or less. And went to work fixing my life. Living simply.. build love yet be vigilant..

To adopt the humility it takes to be subordinate to the limitations and requirements of your body as well as the health of wildlife as a whole is totally contrary to the framework developed up to this point. Its not a distinct human trait to be in touch with reality in fact its our ability to think abstractly. That ability by nature is a liability to pure objectivity not a help in fact what i just said is an abstraction ive never seen pure objectivity and guess what i never will .

Very curious whatever happened to Adam. is he still homeless?

When all you got is a hammer, everything looks like a male.
