the sad thing is that nobody wants to hear the stories or any of the lessons learned during this time. we are looked at as lepers rather than having something special to share.
During my physcosis I remember it lasted almost 2 weeks . It was such an awakening and during this time I had so much energy hardly slept or hardly ate . I had a very Spiritual moment during this time where I was able to forgive my abuser from childhood without anyone being present . Not only did I forgave him but in that moment I also prayed for him . I was finally able to let go of the pain after more than 20yrs of carrying hate . I thought I was gonna die but instead I feel reborn .
I was just diagnosed officially with Bipolar disorder. 2 years ago I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. what I want to know is why is it then that I feel some type of spiritual crisis? I cannot explain or describe my feelings and when the doctor asked me what my understanding of life Is, I just said I want inner peace. he told me the only way I can attain this is through taking mood stabilizers. This is when I mentioned "well what about the people who get 'terminal' cancer and are able to heal themselves completely without any medication" he responds by saying that's because they have faith. And so I say "THAT is what I want". he says "you are looking for a needle in a haystack that you may never find". I just know deep inside that these illnesses are a compass to lead us to the life we are meant to live. But it's so difficult to express the feelings that come with it. they are uncategorized
He is somewhat right. It is very hard to find nirvana, unless you have a deep desire and also awaken your intuition which will send people into your life in serendipitous ways to help you achieve inner peace. Mood stabilizers can be quite dangerous - blood clots, for one. they don't tell you that - and antioxidants such as aronia have helped me. Try the antioxidant route and keep searching. Check out this chart - www.heartsongctr.com/class101/series1/chakraframe.htm an oldie but a goodie. It seems we have excess energy in some parts of our brains or bodies for some reason.
You gonna listen to a doc with no personal experience of your condition, dictate your future through the use of pharmaceutical pills to numb your “problems”. Fuck em my parents are those people and it makes it worse.
And they need no categories It’s a test of your soul Do you need guidance from others That de man has no soul… No faith… Now you have what he doesn’t An opportunity. Follow your guidance Nobody can tell you Only you decide.
the best way i could describe my manic episode was encountering the natural world as it was for the first time since childhood and being in total alignment with it such that all fear was gone and the power and beauty of universal oneeness could be experienced firsthand, i have never felt more alive than during my episode, but unfortunately it comes at a cost where you brush shoulders against the man made world that isn’t prepared to accept it, that’s where the treatment for bipolar disorder had to come in, i couldn’t afford universal wholeness, i had to let it go in order to become safe within myself and the world around be, but i’ll never forget it, it changed my life for the better
many are called, few are chosen.....those of us, or many of us who have been traumatized through the world's social injustices, and/or suffered great losses of loved ones, begin to ask for knowledge, wisdom, and understanding.....yet through all trauma, we remain in love, and compassion.....and the true journey begins......trust the universe, observe, study...and know WE ARE LOVED on many realms, and dimensions...... 1
I had my spiritual awakening this week and it was the most beautiful feeling I've ever felt in my life. My soul showed me the real world. It's never going to be the same for me again. You cannot go back. There's only one person in my life who's on the same level of consciousness so it's a harder adjustment without someone to talk to. But I'm so excited to learn new things.
I realise that it’s a long time since you posted your message, but I’ve just found it, and totally appreciate what you say. Life after (what I believe to be a profound spiritual experience, and not psychosis as the doctors would have me believe) is certainly not the same. My priorities are so very different, and the world as I knew it is difficult to accept. I’m very fortunate to have a couple of dear friends who ‘get’ where I am, so we can talk together. It’s as if I’m now on a different plane of existence. The joy and ‘knowing’ has receded, but I know that I was given an insight of something very profound for a reason. I send you best wishes.
Sean, you are a genius, your videos are so awesome and clear, how can ANYONE hate you for all these effords you are making with your gorgeous videos. I have to say, i had ALL these experiences, and now i seem to ease-down, finally, after allmost 20 years of suffering, mixed with periods of intense bliss and enjoyment, being 'bipolar' is a gift in a curse and a curse within a gift, it's all ONE, Ying and Yang, and we are experiencing the complete spectrum of spiritual conciousness. Love, Zohra
Wow. I deeply thank and respect the thoroughness, creativity and intelligence you put into understanding the issue and making the video. I have been diagnosed as bipolar but have always perceived it as a spiritual transition. I had also worked in a mental hospital where I worked with adolescents straddling mutliple worlds. This helps me understand all of our journeys better. Thank you so very much, Sean.
I have had the spiritual experiences...Many.... but you mention this to any doc.. and they whack you on pills. this is the way it is....Its bloody sad but its true.
When an individual claims to have these spiritual experiences it's called an illness and your put on medication. When it's a group of people it's called religion 🤷♂️
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 you want to help me, help yourself! Make sure you give lots of time for your own process of healing/awakening! Be patient with yourself, show some of my videos to friends and family that you feel comfortable sharing this information with. It could help with your support! Good Luck!
I love your complete analysis of these difficult,scary transformative, transitions! Our daughter at University just had a full blown Kundalini Awakening! At first we were anxious and fearful. Maybe a severe chronic mental disorder? or a profound cosmic transformation? If I hadn't had a Spiritual Awakening but slower clearing(over 30 yrs) and had done some research on Kundalini. I probably wouldn't have calmed down and rode the wave with her! This hit our daughter hard and created a fear bomb that rippled through her University Friends. None of them understood and shunned her like a witch. But others came around. In any event.. She had temporary psychosis was unrelatable . Our hearts go out to families that are affected by heavy dark transitions in this reality. We knew intuitively to help ground her and accept what was happening... Both scary and cool. She now has very highly tuned perceptions, clairvoyant and very strong from within. WE ALL ARE UGRADING... THE SHIFT HAS BEGUN! ❤️✌🏼
Actually, there is no biological evidence of mental 'illness'. As a result, psychiatrists here in Brazil no longer refer to schizophrenia or bipolar disorder as 'mental illnesses' or diseases as they have no proof of such. They are only refered to as disorders, and it is fully accepted that no such tests for these disorders exist.
I think we will evolve to the point that any mental health professional would be required to have experience by themselves the profound and deep process of awakening, healing, pain and anxiety that comes from the falling of the small ego mask. True help comes from people that have had this kind of experiences. Many psychiatrists nowadays are sleeping, they are unconscious people with a degree helping other sleepers in the need of profound understanding of their process.
I can't thank you enough. You are freaking awesome dude! Thanks to you, I have a clear understanding of what I went through and can explain the same to my counselor. Maybe I won't have to go to the shrink now? Therapy's fine, but it's the meds that I feel uncomfortable about. Don't wanna become a zombie, right? P.S. I am certain that I had a spiritual emergence. After all, I am much more aware and spiritually awakened now.
Damn, this makes perfect sense. im upper right hand corner WTF! This is a hard pill to swallow. Thank you for doing the work. So how are you doing now?
I appreciate your dissection and analysis on this topic. My mission is to raise awareness for the rest of my days and this Video affirms my suspicions about so called mental illnesses and how they are I fact human awakening markers or signs that only with cultural stigma and the associated of a problem to them are they harmful. Ancient lost wisdom has flowed through your work. Perhaps these “illnesses” that Plague our world will come to be interpreted as signs towards enlightenment just in different levels. It’s with acceptance and non judgment that we can truest be aware of our true propose. Thanks
I have been diagnosed as schizophrenic as well as bipolar manic in my life time...and I have always been a Christian and a writer as well as a gifted singer. And people have always seemed to run from it...and I know the difference between a spiritual experience and a manic episode because I have experienced it.
mine feels like spiritual awakening, i’m being treated for bipolar but i’m kind of pissed that i put it on hold in favor of being treated, my only self destructive behavior was exposing myself too much on social media during the awakening
Hearing a mans voice whisper in my ear my name.... To the point I awoke. Seeing a man standing in my hall way... Seeing a young girl with a pink blanket rush past me and vanished... Constant emotion ups highs... Vibrations are outta this world... I hear frequencies sometimes... Vivid dreams.. Outta body dreams... I had a nap one afternoon and had a outta body experience where I saw myself being dragged by my leg out of my bed... Always have flying dreams... I have premonitions... Not big ones but small ones... I don't watch tv.. Or read newspapers.. Magazines... I do not own a lap top or computer... But I do have a mobile and even being on my phone for to long bugs my head........ I stay away from technology as much as possible..... I don't like being around people because I pick up and sense everyone's problems so i stay indoors and seclude myself................. And because all of this is happening iv been diagnosed with Bipolar\mood disorder
Monalisa Bee, you just described so much of myself! Have you also had these experiences since early childhood? (I have been living these experiences for as long as I can remember, about 3 1/2 years old.
Hoke network same! I even have a picture of a me standing next to a tree with and aboriginal ghost beside me... and spiritual experiences/seeing things with multiple witnesses. For me I’m sticking to meds because I cannot operate in this reality without them... it’s like I know things other people don’t know and I can’t understand how they can’t see!
This video series, and the work you put into reaserch but also presentation, is priceless! The singular most accurate analisys and theory that i have stumbled upon, and having been diagnosed bipolar myself, i’m dedicated to learning about it. Thank you, very much! Namaste 🙏
Thanks you for researching and making this video. Ive been living in an abyss like depression (though really creative) since my psychosis in university where I felt like I achieved enlightenment out of nowhere and had complete control over time and space, feeling in tune to everything. Ive experienced pretty much everything on the scale though Im not diagnosed - my family and friends are very worried about me and I am glad I can show them this video to explain my experiences much easier.
I had a magical experience in about 1990, in touch with higher forces, it wos a feeling of "knowing" god, goddess exists.......I wos engulfed with these feelings, it lasted for many months!!!......then I had a breakdown....or I wos shut down one way or the other.......and now I'm in darkness!!....trying to find my way back to that magical place!!!!
Sean, thank you so much for the work you've put into this. It is brilliant! It follows that the more one were to actually put in the work of honestly confronting, feeling and coming to terms with their life traumas, the more positive the experience can be. It makes so much sense. Love ya, bro. Please keep up the good work. :)
Robert Nobilia You're welcome }}Robert! You should also check out my videos about Moni's healing process with me. I think you will find them very interetsting.
I just had, what I was told by nurses, a manic episode of bipolar. At the beginning, it felt very much like what you described as spiritual emergency. However, I was unable to sleep for 3 days, so I went to see the doctors. They saw my symptoms and had a very serious and fearful attitude towards it; they immediately put me in a psychiatric ward. At that point, my spiritual experience took a sudden dive into the borderline schizophrenic spectrum you described. I wish doctors had a more open mind.
So glad you made this video I'm bipolar and alot of my spiritual awakening were labeled manic episode or psychosis this video was very well done and researched you are very insightful and have changed how I look at my illness please do more videos like this
Very well put! I´d only add that we do need to show compassion for people who, despite their best efforts, find the experiences too difficult and overwhelming to deal with, even with great support around them. For these people, meds may be the best option.
This video feels like I’m listening to the story of my life. I started to write a book about exactly this without saying this exactly, this clearly. Wow. Just wow. I am speechless. Speechless. Like someone read my mind. I feel like this video was made for me.
Exactly. That´s why I'm not entirely anti-psychiatry. At this point in time, medications are completely necessary for people at the 'darker' end of the spectrum, and if you had watched the entire video, you would have understood that.
Thank You men! I thought i was the only one, but i see now this is common. I wont lie to you, Im still fighting with it, but I arrive somehow to the same conclusion, is tolerance what defines whats bipolar and whats Spiritual Awakening!
I tend to agree. Trauma may very well be the cause of negative psychosis such as paranoia and other delusions. I think this is my experience. Maybe, the negative psychosis episode is as you say a process to get rid of the past trauma which in my case was an intense feeling of abandonment and lack of trust.
You made me understand the very true nature of the spiritual awakening I lived last weekend. Thank you, Shawn Blackwell. I now understand how I'm healing.
Thank you so much , this is really helpful . i v been trying to deal with what u called "spirtual emergency" for 1 month now , with 1 suicide attempt so far lol ts not easy at all for me with all that depression... Too bad i have no supporters to go through this healing process with me , not even anyone around has a single idea about what im facing , i sound like a weirdo or a crazy for them when i try to speak things from my own perspective or knowledge.. Thank you for doing all this job to provide this help while there is no support or a "a voice" for people like us , i wish a good luck and unconditional love for everyone going through this , you all are geniuses NOT CRAZY,but we just dont have a chance in such a fucked up world ruled by a bunch of assholes
I was a skeptical atheist not anymore, I am bipolar, bipolarity is real...I went thru a spiritual awakening also really real, I consider my self spiritual overall with still lil traits of atheist just cause when you go thru a spiritual awakening you understand all the beliefs systems and fake paradigms...
@DrAsIs143 I know a number of people who have recovered entirely and live free of medication - completely normal and healthy lives. (mind you, they fit the 'upper right' of my model). In fact, for me, my hospitalization of 15 years ago represented a genuine breakthrough. That is why I do this work. "Science" has turned a blind eye to the spiritual aspects of 'acute-psychosis' for far too long. People are not given an opportunity to heal because psychiatry denies what is staring them in the face.
Your spot on. They are a spectrum. I'm highly aware of myself. I get depression to bipolar to schizophrenia then I have to ground myself More!! Can take days and I have to keep people away when I'm like this. Stress triggers it and I'll never go in a hospital! I find trying to balance my chakras is the best method. Root chakra being the most important. I've been diagnosed with CPTSD and bipolar. I'll stop there Thanks 😆 I see the link with consciousness one of my symptoms is Disassociation. The more I dissociate the less conscious I become. I'm learning to deal with it. There isn't enough knowledge out there right now.
That is great research and an on point theory that I agree with. I think your on to something profound. It absolutely hits home for me. Awesome video 💞
Being in a more tribal state is more based around fear because fear is closer in a sense, because we're hitting on both wide ends of the pendulum.. but I imagine once that breakthrough happens it merges something within a soul. And so just the same being more tribal and connected closer to fear is also more connected to love - that's here the breakthrough goes.
I kept saying i was having a spiritual experience but no one believed me.. I am on meds now but would love to be off it it's not as much as i once was on so i am grateful.. I believed i was Egyptian Maat, Bob Marley n Salassie (a trinity)... I once told my parents i would kill them but never taught of suicide.. I smoked marijuana n the doc said it drug induced psychosis.. Now i am off weed n on meds however thanks for these videos i have been in yr profile all day.... O yeah i was sexually abused as a child too n when my bf cheated n got a girl pregnant this episode started with me n i started talking to myself n talking all my hidden secrets like being abused etc .. it lasted for months from 2014, 15 n 16... I went to rehab n started using tablets n i drifted back to reality in about 2 months but now i am worried about missing out on the spiritual wonders by using these tablets. Once again thanks for doing all this research n posting about it. Love always Gem
During my psicosis I remember walking for 4 days into this dark valley and I asked God if I was going to stay there forever? He didn't answer. So, I told Him "It's okay I will still praise your name forever" I asked Him at least for a rubik cube family fotos and a fan. It was dark and I was floating. After seeing unbelievable evil/good entities and going through two of my own life legal trial He pulled me out to the light. It was painful but, today I feel more peaceful and uplifting than ever.
Sean Blackwell, you have saved my life the first second i ever saw your very first video, many years ago. The same way Neale Donald Walsh first book of "Conversations With God" saved me within the first lines! You are so talented at explaining all of our extreme bipolarity in such a profound and with such natural easy flow. You illustrate all of your videos with amazing images! My soul wishes to encourage you to feel very happy and content if not proud of your hard craft!! it has paid off millions and will keep on paying off trillions for new generations to come. You have my eternal gratitude for supporting me, gently, firmly, wisely, to assume my Kundalini syndrome. With patience, wisdom and free will, i am feeling more and more in tune with whom I AM truly, deeply and lovingly, for the benefit of all of that is in this wonderful Universe and beyond! Namaste Sean! Your mission is right on track!! :o) xxx
it is spiritual! and jesus is the only way out. repent your sins and pray for healing. he loves you want you to be happy and filled with joy! talk to christans and search for help it will work trust me. me myself i had depression
i had a couple dark nights of the soul, i was put on anti depressive medicine and told i am bipolar. i think i need to talk about this too. maybe ill do videos in french. thank you
@MrDanielBowman74 With an intergral (or "power of now" as I call it) perspective on ego development, you will understand how 'curbing' the child ego and awakening the spirit are the same thing. Most people with BD are past that stage however. Their challenge is not to transcend the child-like, selfish, impulsive ego you refer to. These people are usually emotionaly repressed to some degree. Their tast is to transcend the modern, rational, adult ego.
Thanks for these upploads..i have had an spiritual emergency and i still think it's goin on...it have healed almost all fear and missperceptions by having this knowledge...it was very scary in moments(3days or so in many episodes) but information like this in the background of these experiences made it much easier..
@blisterpacman The energies shift like tides. One minute you are all into connecting with everyone, the next minute, you think the devil is after you - it happens a lot...
wow... the EXACT same thing happened to me... I truly started to connect with my spiritual self pretty much at the same time as I got sick.. I am so thankful for that since it (and my music) has kept me going, even through my most heavy depressions. Loved this! Thank you :))
Thank you, What validate your point of view further is that in my case the cause of my bipolar mania symptoms is the use of accelerated meditation tools like Holosync. And after studying Ken Wilber's levels of development, I now think that psychotic mania might be a fixation on the first fulcrum.(immature emotionnel self expression of that level)
I am a christian, but i believe that there is a difference between spiritual awakening and having a disorder. I have also been diagnosed with it. You can tell the difference when it is God or the devil, and when it is just your own mind or disorder taunting you. We have to remember that we are in the flesh, which makes us imperfect. God allows us all to have something to struggle with so that we are able to have compassion on one another. If we were completely perfect, we would not have empathy.
I'm a skitzo & the penguins say what a great imformative topic on psychosis. Also the original complete science on consiousness is the Sanskrit Vedanta sutra or it's commentary Srimad Bhagavatam, the cream of the Vedas. Known as Krishna[Christ in english] consiousness, in which we link our consiousness direct to God in a loving relationship. We are a spiritual being NOW so living like one heals our consiousness. Our 'material' desires[lust] cause our sufferings, it's incompatable to the soul.
If you still obsess over past trauma, more details need to be uncovered. A good psych will ask you first to relive it out loud. As you gloss over details, he/she should ask for those details, and note any emotions exhibited when you do. Then you tell the story again as though you are watching someone else. The goal is for you to see the event as something that happened to a child, someone you no longer are, allowing you to shed the traumatic feelings associated with it.
There is a difference between a vision and a hallucination. A vision is not always seen the way you see physical objects in the world, they can be seen in "the minds eye" the same way you "see" something when you read a story and imagine what the actions described look like. These enchant texts might not have been describing things seen in the same way as a hallucination, but instead something that came to them "in there minds eye", in-other-words something they pictured in there mind.
ive had a spiritual awakening this week just from your videos i was fearful of believing in my spirituality as i didnt understand my experience i was made to feel unnatural
Anyone that has experienced this can understand how easy it is to misinterpret things we experience. Forget the labels as it's how I can communicate this to you, but have you ever considered that those who think they are "the" Christ are experiencing the connecting "holy spirit" which they misinterpret to mean that they are THE Christ rather than a part of the body of Christ which I see as a form of mass mind?
@McScreenName In my own experience, you can switch the oncoming "panic" attack into a europhic experience (or stave it off completely). The key is to let go of the fear. You can do this by either rationalizing the situation (eg. You won't die etc.) or by changing your perspective. Think of it as a surge of energy and learn to embrace it. Have "love/ecstasy episodes" instead of panic/(fear) attacks. Don't prevent the energy from escalating to positive levels by panicking. Sorry I'm not Sean.
I started me spiritually-journy for about 6 years ago. It was a coincidence, I was looking for motivation to do and be more. It all started with a video by eckart Tolle and instead of be more I become less and started to practice the now and awareness. My conclusion on my journey is that I can't live like this in modern world with out being very strange and a kind of munk-mode. Now I am in hospital with a bipolar disorder and undiagnosed ADHD I have carried all my life and try to calm down with spiritually. It doesn't work unless u sit in a cave or are in a country where this is the condition the majority is living. Sorry for telling the truth but that is reality and u have too become friend with our mind not ignore it. It will sooner or later come back and u may ens up in worst case with a Parkinson's disease. Use spiritually as a reminder of how still u can be, but not depend on it because that can lead to a serious problem for u and your surroundings. Peace out from Norway.
I’ve felt all these grandiose symptoms and concluded I was an evil soul but in reality i just have severe bipolar disorder and you just have to realize it’s just a mental illness
As someone recently diagnosed I found your videos interesting. I think it correct to question your question as it could be both. Clinically Bipolar and a spiritual awakening is possible. As you mention it is possible to emerge from the episode as I did at a higher level of conscious awareness. Having been previously agnostic before my awakening one can imagine my surprise when this all occured. I see the world now from what some call an ascended state. Glad to know someone is considering these possibilities, well done.
Tim Flagler I think "previously" agnostic people have a great opportunity to heal, as they had, previously taken the time to arrive at the "logical" conclusion that they are agnostic. I was one myself. It reflects a high level of psychological development. However, people do get stuck sometimes. That's why I'm here! ;-)
Those highly traumatized, higher level people would be on the upper left of the chart...above schizophrenia. What would their psychosis look like? I´m not sure. Probably a mix of spiritual content and trauma related hallucinations. I would not expect it to be an easy process to pass through, but there is a good possibility. For those in the lower left, the probability of healing is much less.
Unfortunatly no. Most parents see my work as threatening. If you trust your therapist though, you might want to bring up some of the ideas in my work that your resonate with. good Luck!
As the video suggests, there is a way out for many...maybe not for everyone - just yet anyways. The first step is to watch all of my videso 1- 23 plus some others. They will help get you in the right frame of mind!
Thank you so much for what you have done for me personally, I am very grateful. I have been fighting half of my life for what you have said in this video.
interestingly what happened to me was a mind reset. I was always quite enlightened but indoctrinated by society (still am to a certain extent) it is a battle for sure because I may fall back to the ways of the world TV etc but I do not want to go back to that ! multiple perspectives are the way to go for sure but the right ones, there are many truths and my personal truth is important to me.
Spot on! Around 22 minutes. Brilliant! I wonder if any are left-handed also, and whether do they have an astrological pattern. Recommend the Teachings of Abraham to all to help understand yourself better. Hope this reaches you.
@BffsForLife24 In hindsight, it probably seems like a delusion once you've been euthymic for some time after a manic episode. But it's a completely different story once you're experiencing it in real-time. When I was at the height of my manic episode, my perspective had completely changed, so it's difficult to truly make sense of what happened when I'm currently "sane".
@acchildhoodsend My only justification is your personal experience. If you have had an experience of what is normally labelled 'acute psychosis' much of what I say you will identify with. With that said, all of the material I share in my work comes from a combination of personal experience, experience working with a few others directly, (family members included) feedback from 1000´s of people with bipolar disorder, and, most importantly, the work of Doctors Grof, John Weir Perry, & David Lukoff
a series of unfortunate events unfolded in my life and suddenly nothing made sense- on top of that i was learning at school that my entire view of the american way of life that i felt had been based on doing good in fact used a financial stranglehold cohesion and brute force to create the environment in which we live- as i came to these realization i was amazed at how unaffected by this knowledge that people were. Its not that we should set out to fix the world but not trying to mess it up seems like a good place to start-we consume mindlessly led by those that get fat and rich off the exploitation of the vacuum we create, and we have come to consume so much that our consumption has torn the fabric of existence for cultures all around the world. - our mistake as a culture is that we believe science and think that this means god cannot exist- like children who refuse to listen to their parents we refuse to acknowledge the importance of morals and slowly the world decays because of it- we spread pain and suffering, keeping a mindset that all is well-that sounds like bipolar to me. The minds that awaken to this are the one that can no longer ignore the truth-painful yes confusing yes-do i need a medicated coma no- sadly i feel the greatest drug to prevent such moralistic awakenings is the television- keep looking at your phone- keep listening to music that promotes sex violence and drugs- keep watching the news that keeps you in fear of the world to such a degree you are willing to beg the military to assume control over your life- and as our forming history writes us into a story where god does not exist and people are just smart animals dont be upset when your treated like one. And when you finally find yourself in the darkest hour of your life i pray that you will have the where with all to fully accept the divine spirit of wisdom and love for it is the only thing that could save you. It is this relationship that separates the awakening from the church-knowing you must in fact make decisions based upon divine will, rather than trusting appointed powers that claim to be under the very same divine guidance available to all of us. Again if you dont like the idea of thinking for yourself ignore idea of change and keep funneling as directed by the box in the corner.
GREAT video...Do you think a spiritual awakening can be put in a period of an 'episode'? Is there a time and space for this...? Very , very well done Sir X. Anyone if you feel to know more from the spiritual explanation look for : Kundalini Awakening. Love-Light to you all X
Just because you're at the same place at the same time as a famous person doesn't mean they're there to "see you" having objective friends explain a situation accurately helps keep you from being out of synch with reality.
here is my question... what about people who are 90% of the time positive and who are higher up on the chart... but the psychosis experienced is not necessarily positive... could there be a traumatic event that is so great that can have a such a strong negative impact on people who are positive?
Based on my research, which involved having long e-mail conversations with people around the world for about 5 years, on the upper right of the chart, with high consciousness (post-modern/integral) and low trauma (far right) tend to have more positive spiritual experiences. If a higher consciousness person had 'high truama', they would find themselves on the upper left of the chart, where I have no circle. And yes, that happens, and yes, I would expect their psychosis to be more difficult, as you suggest. BTW, researchers in England have confirmed a link between trauma and personal development. Basically, the more traumatized you are, the more your personal development is inhibited.
I had bi polar to start then i got schizophrenia i have always been spiritual and physcic bi polar was low feeling no visions things went wrong sxhizophrenia began seeing visions again before being diagnosed in 2004 i feel more relaxed about it now and enjoy being physchic although i never get a hob in it saud pjychuatrisr but i remembberr my pasr time in heaven had visions of my future partner when 18 now 49 and im with him for 6 years past my parner has schizophrenia and i heal him bipolar is dedinently more fearful in physchicy and scary
On the spectrum i find myself to be higher to the right and lower left and the way you explained it i can understand why for my self this is having bipolar and a duality
6:18 minute mark - what are the key factors which would lead to someone having a more positive experience... For me it all comes down to pathways of thought. Where do our thoughts come from? Ourselves, God or Satan. Ensuring that I am always surrounded by Jesus, including scripture, music and videos related to the the Bible. If you are focusing on other gods, other music, other media, then you will likely have a bad experience that leads to death and destruction, not creativity and healing.
Can trauma be caused by acumulated experiences? I have tried to go back through my inner fears during my phsychoanalysis therapy but I could not identify which was the one that scared me the most, so I do not feel free yet...
Your theory about trauma is a little off. Overall you are close to having answered some integral spiritual questions. I like where you are going with this, these are things I have known since my early diagnosis but had a hard time relaying to others who have questions. I fall in the upper left of the spectrum but have experienced severe traumas. My diagnosis is bi polar ADD/ADHD and PTSD. I have been able to push past the barrier of medication and retain my spiritual abundance only with out the use of Marijuana which caused my many episodes of psychosis. It's a long journey out the rabbit hole as you say but there is a beautiful light at the end of the tunnle. I still believe we are here to save the world tho 😉

the sad thing is that nobody wants to hear the stories or any of the lessons learned during this time. we are looked at as lepers rather than having something special to share.
Amen!
During my physcosis I remember it lasted almost 2 weeks . It was such an awakening and during this time I had so much energy hardly slept or hardly ate . I had a very Spiritual moment during this time where I was able to forgive my abuser from childhood without anyone being present . Not only did I forgave him but in that moment I also prayed for him . I was finally able to let go of the pain after more than 20yrs of carrying hate . I thought I was gonna die but instead I feel reborn .
How can I contact you,I need some help.You may able to clear my doubt.

I was just diagnosed officially with Bipolar disorder. 2 years ago I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. what I want to know is why is it then that I feel some type of spiritual crisis? I cannot explain or describe my feelings and when the doctor asked me what my understanding of life Is, I just said I want inner peace. he told me the only way I can attain this is through taking mood stabilizers. This is when I mentioned "well what about the people who get 'terminal' cancer and are able to heal themselves completely without any medication" he responds by saying that's because they have faith. And so I say "THAT is what I want". he says "you are looking for a needle in a haystack that you may never find". I just know deep inside that these illnesses are a compass to lead us to the life we are meant to live. But it's so difficult to express the feelings that come with it. they are uncategorized
He is somewhat right. It is very hard to find nirvana, unless you have a deep desire and also awaken your intuition which will send people into your life in serendipitous ways to help you achieve inner peace. Mood stabilizers can be quite dangerous - blood clots, for one. they don't tell you that - and antioxidants such as aronia have helped me. Try the antioxidant route and keep searching. Check out this chart - www.heartsongctr.com/class101/series1/chakraframe.htm an oldie but a goodie. It seems we have excess energy in some parts of our brains or bodies for some reason.
Mmmm. You are speaking my experience as well!!! Thank you for your honesty. I was diagnosed bipolar type 2 (on mood stabilizers)
You gonna listen to a doc with no personal experience of your condition, dictate your future through the use of pharmaceutical pills to numb your “problems”. Fuck em my parents are those people and it makes it worse.
And they need no categories
It’s a test of your soul
Do you need guidance from others
That de man has no soul…
No faith…
Now you have what he doesn’t
An opportunity.
Follow your guidance
Nobody can tell you
Only you decide.
Why are so many manic episodes religious and extremely similar. Seems suspect to me
the best way i could describe my manic episode was encountering the natural world as it was for the first time since childhood and being in total alignment with it such that all fear was gone and the power and beauty of universal oneeness could be experienced firsthand, i have never felt more alive than during my episode, but unfortunately it comes at a cost where you brush shoulders against the man made world that isn’t prepared to accept it, that’s where the treatment for bipolar disorder had to come in, i couldn’t afford universal wholeness, i had to let it go in order to become safe within myself and the world around be, but i’ll never forget it, it changed my life for the better
many are called, few are chosen.....those of us, or many of us who have been traumatized through the world's social injustices, and/or suffered great losses of loved ones, begin to ask for knowledge, wisdom, and understanding.....yet through all trauma, we remain in love, and compassion.....and the true journey begins......trust the universe, observe, study...and know WE ARE LOVED on many realms, and dimensions...... 1
I had my spiritual awakening this week and it was the most beautiful feeling I've ever felt in my life. My soul showed me the real world. It's never going to be the same for me again. You cannot go back. There's only one person in my life who's on the same level of consciousness so it's a harder adjustment without someone to talk to. But I'm so excited to learn new things.
Can you explain what you felt specifically from your perspective?
I realise that it’s a long time since you posted your message, but I’ve just found it, and totally appreciate what you say. Life after (what I believe to be a profound spiritual experience, and not psychosis as the doctors would have me believe) is certainly not the same. My priorities are so very different, and the world as I knew it is difficult to accept. I’m very fortunate to have a couple of dear friends who ‘get’ where I am, so we can talk together. It’s as if I’m now on a different plane of existence. The joy and ‘knowing’ has receded, but I know that I was given an insight of something very profound for a reason. I send you best wishes.
what a feeling!
You figured out and explained what I was trying to figure out alone. Thank you.
Sean, you are a genius, your videos are so awesome and clear, how can ANYONE hate you for all these effords you are making with your gorgeous videos. I have to say, i had ALL these experiences, and now i seem to ease-down, finally, after allmost 20 years of suffering, mixed with periods of intense bliss and enjoyment, being 'bipolar' is a gift in a curse and a curse within a gift, it's all ONE, Ying and Yang, and we are experiencing the complete spectrum of spiritual conciousness. Love, Zohra
Wow. I deeply thank and respect the thoroughness, creativity and intelligence you put into understanding the issue and making the video. I have been diagnosed as bipolar but have always perceived it as a spiritual transition. I had also worked in a mental hospital where I worked with adolescents straddling mutliple worlds. This helps me understand all of our journeys better. Thank you so very much, Sean.
I have had the spiritual experiences...Many.... but you mention this to any doc.. and they whack you on pills.
this is the way it is....Its bloody sad but its true.
Yeah, we're cash cows to a lot of them.
can we speak together possibly in email? i would love to talk with you about your experiences and share some of my own.
When an individual claims to have these spiritual experiences it's called an illness and your put on medication.
When it's a group of people it's called religion 🤷♂️
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 you want to help me, help yourself! Make sure you give lots of time for your own process of healing/awakening!
Be patient with yourself, show some of my videos to friends and family that you feel comfortable sharing this information with. It could help with your support! Good Luck!
I love your complete analysis of these difficult,scary transformative, transitions! Our daughter at University just had a full blown Kundalini Awakening! At first we were anxious and fearful. Maybe a severe chronic mental disorder? or a profound cosmic transformation? If I hadn't had a Spiritual Awakening but slower clearing(over 30 yrs) and had done some research on Kundalini. I probably wouldn't have calmed down and rode the wave with her! This hit our daughter hard and created a fear bomb that rippled through her University Friends. None of them understood and shunned her like a witch. But others came around. In any event.. She had temporary psychosis was unrelatable . Our hearts go out to families that are affected by heavy dark transitions in this reality. We knew intuitively to help ground her and accept what was happening... Both scary and cool. She now has very highly tuned perceptions, clairvoyant and very strong from within. WE ALL ARE UGRADING... THE SHIFT HAS BEGUN! ❤️✌🏼
Actually, there is no biological evidence of mental 'illness'. As a result, psychiatrists here in Brazil no longer refer to schizophrenia or bipolar disorder as 'mental illnesses' or diseases as they have no proof of such. They are only refered to as disorders, and it is fully accepted that no such tests for these disorders exist.
Wish other countries would follow suit. Extremely hard to challenge psychiatrists but I will keep trying
I think we will evolve to the point that any mental health professional would be required to have experience by themselves the profound and deep process of awakening, healing, pain and anxiety that comes from the falling of the small ego mask. True help comes from people that have had this kind of experiences. Many psychiatrists nowadays are sleeping, they are unconscious people with a degree helping other sleepers in the need of profound understanding of their process.
in spiritual Awakening there is awareness always and you do know what you do exactly but in bipolar disorder u r not aware.
You literally talked about my ENTIRE experience!!!! This is crazy😭😭😭♥️
I can't thank you enough. You are freaking awesome dude! Thanks to you, I have a clear understanding of what I went through and can explain the same to my counselor. Maybe I won't have to go to the shrink now? Therapy's fine, but it's the meds that I feel uncomfortable about. Don't wanna become a zombie, right? P.S. I am certain that I had a spiritual emergence. After all, I am much more aware and spiritually awakened now.
+Pranav Bhatia Thanks you Pranav!
Damn, this makes perfect sense. im upper right hand corner WTF! This is a hard pill to swallow. Thank you for doing the work. So how are you doing now?
Pranav Bhatia khan
me too mania get a bad rap you can channel mania into spiritual and artistic fuel
I appreciate your dissection and analysis on this topic. My mission is to raise awareness for the rest of my days and this Video affirms my suspicions about so called mental illnesses and how they are I fact human awakening markers or signs that only with cultural stigma and the associated of a problem to them are they harmful.
Ancient lost wisdom has flowed through your work. Perhaps these “illnesses” that Plague our world will come to be interpreted as signs towards enlightenment just in different levels. It’s with acceptance and non judgment that we can truest be aware of our true propose. Thanks
I have been diagnosed as schizophrenic as well as bipolar manic in my life time...and I have always been a Christian and a writer as well as a gifted singer. And people have always seemed to run from it...and I know the difference between a spiritual experience and a manic episode because I have experienced it.
mine feels like spiritual awakening, i’m being treated for bipolar but i’m kind of pissed that i put it on hold in favor of being treated, my only self destructive behavior was exposing myself too much on social media during the awakening
Hearing a mans voice whisper in my ear my name.... To the point I awoke. Seeing a man standing in my hall way... Seeing a young girl with a pink blanket rush past me and vanished... Constant emotion ups highs... Vibrations are outta this world... I hear frequencies sometimes... Vivid dreams.. Outta body dreams... I had a nap one afternoon and had a outta body experience where I saw myself being dragged by my leg out of my bed... Always have flying dreams... I have premonitions... Not big ones but small ones... I don't watch tv.. Or read newspapers.. Magazines... I do not own a lap top or computer... But I do have a mobile and even being on my phone for to long bugs my head........ I stay away from technology as much as possible..... I don't like being around people because I pick up and sense everyone's problems so i stay indoors and seclude myself................. And because all of this is happening iv been diagnosed with Bipolar\mood disorder
Monalisa Bee, you just described so much of myself! Have you also had these experiences since early childhood? (I have been living these experiences for as long as I can remember, about 3 1/2 years old.
@@hokenetwork1152 me toooo!
Hoke network same! I even have a picture of a me standing next to a tree with and aboriginal ghost beside me... and spiritual experiences/seeing things with multiple witnesses. For me I’m sticking to meds because I cannot operate in this reality without them... it’s like I know things other people don’t know and I can’t understand how they can’t see!
I can relate a little but you’re special
This video series, and the work you put into reaserch but also presentation, is priceless! The singular most accurate analisys and theory that i have stumbled upon, and having been diagnosed bipolar myself, i’m dedicated to learning about it.
Thank you, very much!
Namaste 🙏
Thanks you for researching and making this video. Ive been living in an abyss like depression (though really creative) since my psychosis in university where I felt like I achieved enlightenment out of nowhere and had complete control over time and space, feeling in tune to everything. Ive experienced pretty much everything on the scale though Im not diagnosed - my family and friends are very worried about me and I am glad I can show them this video to explain my experiences much easier.
I had a magical experience in about 1990, in touch with higher forces, it wos a feeling of "knowing" god, goddess exists.......I wos engulfed with these feelings, it lasted for many months!!!......then I had a breakdown....or I wos shut down one way or the other.......and now I'm in darkness!!....trying to find my way back to that magical place!!!!
Sean, thank you so much for the work you've put into this. It is brilliant! It follows that the more one were to actually put in the work of honestly confronting, feeling and coming to terms with their life traumas, the more positive the experience can be. It makes so much sense. Love ya, bro. Please keep up the good work. :)
Robert Nobilia You're welcome }}Robert! You should also check out my videos about Moni's healing process with me. I think you will find them very interetsting.
Will do, cheers.
I just had, what I was told by nurses, a manic episode of bipolar. At the beginning, it felt very much like what you described as spiritual emergency. However, I was unable to sleep for 3 days, so I went to see the doctors. They saw my symptoms and had a very serious and fearful attitude towards it; they immediately put me in a psychiatric ward. At that point, my spiritual experience took a sudden dive into the borderline schizophrenic spectrum you described. I wish doctors had a more open mind.
So glad you made this video I'm bipolar and alot of my spiritual awakening were labeled manic episode or psychosis this video was very well done and researched you are very insightful and have changed how I look at my illness please do more videos like this
This is absolutely genius and so introspective. This makes total sense , thanks so much Sean!
Very well put! I´d only add that we do need to show compassion for people who, despite their best efforts, find the experiences too difficult and overwhelming to deal with, even with great support around them. For these people, meds may be the best option.
This video feels like I’m listening to the story of my life. I started to write a book about exactly this without saying this exactly, this clearly. Wow. Just wow. I am speechless. Speechless. Like someone read my mind. I feel like this video was made for me.
Exactly. That´s why I'm not entirely anti-psychiatry. At this point in time, medications are completely necessary for people at the 'darker' end of the spectrum, and if you had watched the entire video, you would have understood that.
This video you beautiful constructed and articulated. I thank God for you and your work
You`re welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank You men! I thought i was the only one, but i see now this is common. I wont lie to you, Im still fighting with it, but I arrive somehow to the same conclusion, is tolerance what defines whats bipolar and whats Spiritual Awakening!
I tend to agree. Trauma may very well be the cause of negative psychosis such as paranoia and other delusions. I think this is my experience. Maybe, the negative psychosis episode is as you say a process to get rid of the past trauma which in my case was an intense feeling of abandonment and lack of trust.
You made me understand the very true nature of the spiritual awakening I lived last weekend. Thank you, Shawn Blackwell. I now understand how I'm healing.
Thank you so much , this is really helpful . i v been trying to deal with what u called "spirtual emergency" for 1 month now , with 1 suicide attempt so far lol ts not easy at all for me with all that depression...
Too bad i have no supporters to go through this healing process with me , not even anyone around has a single idea about what im facing , i sound like a weirdo or a crazy for them when i try to speak things from my own perspective or knowledge..
Thank you for doing all this job to provide this help while there is no support or a "a voice" for people like us , i wish a good luck and unconditional love for everyone going through this , you all are geniuses NOT CRAZY,but we just dont have a chance in such a fucked up world ruled by a bunch of assholes
I was a skeptical atheist not anymore, I am bipolar, bipolarity is real...I went thru a spiritual awakening also really real, I consider my self spiritual overall with still lil traits of atheist just cause when you go thru a spiritual awakening you understand all the beliefs systems and fake paradigms...
@DrAsIs143 I know a number of people who have recovered entirely and live free of medication - completely normal and healthy lives. (mind you, they fit the 'upper right' of my model). In fact, for me, my hospitalization of 15 years ago represented a genuine breakthrough. That is why I do this work. "Science" has turned a blind eye to the spiritual aspects of 'acute-psychosis' for far too long. People are not given an opportunity to heal because psychiatry denies what is staring them in the face.
Thank you Sean. You describe my experience with acute psychosis perfectly.
Your spot on. They are a spectrum. I'm highly aware of myself. I get depression to bipolar to schizophrenia then I have to ground myself More!! Can take days and I have to keep people away when I'm like this. Stress triggers it and I'll never go in a hospital! I find trying to balance my chakras is the best method. Root chakra being the most important. I've been diagnosed with CPTSD and bipolar. I'll stop there Thanks 😆 I see the link with consciousness one of my symptoms is Disassociation. The more I dissociate the less conscious I become. I'm learning to deal with it. There isn't enough knowledge out there right now.
That is great research and an on point theory that I agree with. I think your on to something profound. It absolutely hits home for me. Awesome video 💞
Being in a more tribal state is more based around fear because fear is closer in a sense, because we're hitting on both wide ends of the pendulum.. but I imagine once that breakthrough happens it merges something within a soul. And so just the same being more tribal and connected closer to fear is also more connected to love - that's here the breakthrough goes.
I kept saying i was having a spiritual experience but no one believed me.. I am on meds now but would love to be off it it's not as much as i once was on so i am grateful.. I believed i was Egyptian Maat, Bob Marley n Salassie (a trinity)... I once told my parents i would kill them but never taught of suicide.. I smoked marijuana n the doc said it drug induced psychosis.. Now i am off weed n on meds however thanks for these videos i have been in yr profile all day.... O yeah i was sexually abused as a child too n when my bf cheated n got a girl pregnant this episode started with me n i started talking to myself n talking all my hidden secrets like being abused etc .. it lasted for months from 2014, 15 n 16... I went to rehab n started using tablets n i drifted back to reality in about 2 months but now i am worried about missing out on the spiritual wonders by using these tablets. Once again thanks for doing all this research n posting about it. Love always Gem
During my psicosis I remember walking for 4 days into this dark valley and I asked God if I was going to stay there forever? He didn't answer. So, I told Him "It's okay I will still praise your name forever" I asked Him at least for a rubik cube family fotos and a fan. It was dark and I was floating. After seeing unbelievable evil/good entities and going through two of my own life legal trial He pulled me out to the light. It was painful but, today I feel more peaceful and uplifting than ever.
Sean Blackwell, you have saved my life the first second i ever saw your very first video, many years ago. The same way Neale Donald Walsh first book of "Conversations With God" saved me within the first lines!
You are so talented at explaining all of our extreme bipolarity in such a profound and with such natural easy flow. You illustrate all of your videos with amazing images! My soul wishes to encourage you to feel very happy and content if not proud of your hard craft!! it has paid off millions and will keep on paying off trillions for new generations to come. You have my eternal gratitude for supporting me, gently, firmly, wisely, to assume my Kundalini syndrome. With patience, wisdom and free will, i am feeling more and more in tune with whom I AM truly, deeply and lovingly, for the benefit of all of that is in this wonderful Universe and beyond! Namaste Sean! Your mission is right on track!! :o) xxx
Trauma Thoughts and Toxity , all impair the physiological tendencies to heal.\
i had a mix of both and spiritual awakening
it is spiritual! and jesus is the only way out. repent your sins and pray for healing. he loves you want you to be happy and filled with joy! talk to christans and search for help it will work trust me. me myself i had depression
i had a couple dark nights of the soul, i was put on anti depressive medicine and told i am bipolar. i think i need to talk about this too. maybe ill do videos in french. thank you
@MrDanielBowman74 With an intergral (or "power of now" as I call it) perspective on ego development, you will understand how 'curbing' the child ego and awakening the spirit are the same thing. Most people with BD are past that stage however. Their challenge is not to transcend the child-like, selfish, impulsive ego you refer to. These people are usually emotionaly repressed to some degree. Their tast is to transcend the modern, rational, adult ego.
I was atheist than had an spiritual emergency and I'm diagnosed schizophrenic. Also here I am watching sharing my story.
Thanks for these upploads..i have had an spiritual emergency and i still think it's goin on...it have healed almost all fear and missperceptions by having this knowledge...it was very scary in moments(3days or so in many episodes) but information like this in the background of these experiences made it much easier..
@blisterpacman The energies shift like tides. One minute you are all into connecting with everyone, the next minute, you think the devil is after you - it happens a lot...
wow... the EXACT same thing happened to me... I truly started to connect with my spiritual self pretty much at the same time as I got sick.. I am so thankful for that since it (and my music) has kept me going, even through my most heavy depressions. Loved this! Thank you :))
Thank you so much for this video, I've been thinking I'm losing my mind
Thank you,
What validate your point of view further is that in my case the cause of my bipolar mania symptoms is the use of accelerated meditation tools like Holosync.
And after studying Ken Wilber's levels of development, I now think that psychotic mania might be a fixation on the first fulcrum.(immature emotionnel self expression of that level)
I am a christian, but i believe that there is a difference between spiritual awakening and having a disorder. I have also been diagnosed with it. You can tell the difference when it is God or the devil, and when it is just your own mind or disorder taunting you. We have to remember that we are in the flesh, which makes us imperfect. God allows us all to have something to struggle with so that we are able to have compassion on one another. If we were completely perfect, we would not have empathy.
I'm a skitzo & the penguins say what a great imformative topic on psychosis.
Also the original complete science on consiousness is the Sanskrit Vedanta sutra or it's commentary Srimad Bhagavatam, the cream of the Vedas. Known as Krishna[Christ in english] consiousness, in which we link our consiousness direct to God in a loving relationship. We are a spiritual being NOW so living like one heals our consiousness. Our 'material' desires[lust] cause our sufferings, it's incompatable to the soul.
If you still obsess over past trauma, more details need to be uncovered. A good psych will ask you first to relive it out loud. As you gloss over details, he/she should ask for those details, and note any emotions exhibited when you do. Then you tell the story again as though you are watching someone else. The goal is for you to see the event as something that happened to a child, someone you no longer are, allowing you to shed the traumatic feelings associated with it.
There is a difference between a vision and a hallucination. A vision is not always seen the way you see physical objects in the world, they can be seen in "the minds eye" the same way you "see" something when you read a story and imagine what the actions described look like. These enchant texts might not have been describing things seen in the same way as a hallucination, but instead something that came to them "in there minds eye", in-other-words something they pictured in there mind.
Third Eye Vision
ive had a spiritual awakening this week just from your videos i was fearful of believing in my spirituality as i didnt understand my experience i was made to feel unnatural
Paranoid, I killed Raven Spy with my bare hands. My bad luck & Bipolar symptoms started lifting
Anyone that has experienced this can understand how easy it is to misinterpret things we experience. Forget the labels as it's how I can communicate this to you, but have you ever considered that those who think they are "the" Christ are experiencing the connecting "holy spirit" which they misinterpret to mean that they are THE Christ rather than a part of the body of Christ which I see as a form of mass mind?
The1stDukeDroklar that is such a solid point, makes so much sense to me! Thank you for sharing.
@McScreenName In my own experience, you can switch the oncoming "panic" attack into a europhic experience (or stave it off completely). The key is to let go of the fear. You can do this by either rationalizing the situation (eg. You won't die etc.) or by changing your perspective. Think of it as a surge of energy and learn to embrace it. Have "love/ecstasy episodes" instead of panic/(fear) attacks. Don't prevent the energy from escalating to positive levels by panicking. Sorry I'm not Sean.
I'll catch up on the rest of your videos as time rolls on, you know your stuff !
I started me spiritually-journy for about 6 years ago. It was a coincidence, I was looking for motivation to do and be more. It all started with a video by eckart Tolle and instead of be more I become less and started to practice the now and awareness. My conclusion on my journey is that I can't live like this in modern world with out being very strange and a kind of munk-mode. Now I am in hospital with a bipolar disorder and undiagnosed ADHD I have carried all my life and try to calm down with spiritually. It doesn't work unless u sit in a cave or are in a country where this is the condition the majority is living. Sorry for telling the truth but that is reality and u have too become friend with our mind not ignore it. It will sooner or later come back and u may ens up in worst case with a Parkinson's disease. Use spiritually as a reminder of how still u can be, but not depend on it because that can lead to a serious problem for u and your surroundings. Peace out from Norway.
thank you for this video, it perfectly described what I was going through. Thank you!!!
I’ve felt all these grandiose symptoms and concluded I was an evil soul but in reality i just have severe bipolar disorder and you just have to realize it’s just a mental illness
As someone recently diagnosed I found your videos interesting. I think it correct to question your question as it could be both. Clinically Bipolar and a spiritual awakening is possible. As you mention it is possible to emerge from the episode as I did at a higher level of conscious awareness. Having been previously agnostic before my awakening one can imagine my surprise when this all occured. I see the world now from what some call an ascended state. Glad to know someone is considering these possibilities, well done.
Tim Flagler I think "previously" agnostic people have a great opportunity to heal, as they had, previously taken the time to arrive at the "logical" conclusion that they are agnostic. I was one myself. It reflects a high level of psychological development. However, people do get stuck sometimes. That's why I'm here! ;-)
How is your life now
Thank you so much!! This was very insightful!!
BEST VIDEO OF THIS LIFETIME. THANK YOU💎❤️💎❤️🎀🎀⭐️
You propose an interesting theory delivered in a very clear way!! I've been asking the same question for such a long time.. thank you!!
Those highly traumatized, higher level people would be on the upper left of the chart...above schizophrenia. What would their psychosis look like? I´m not sure. Probably a mix of spiritual content and trauma related hallucinations. I would not expect it to be an easy process to pass through, but there is a good possibility. For those in the lower left, the probability of healing is much less.
Thanks, I appreciate you feedback on it 'making you think' - that´s the point! And your comments are being posted, no problem!
thank you SO MUCH for making this video. it brought my recent years into perspective. ✨✌
Unfortunatly no. Most parents see my work as threatening. If you trust your therapist though, you might want to bring up some of the ideas in my work that your resonate with. good Luck!
As the video suggests, there is a way out for many...maybe not for everyone - just yet anyways.
The first step is to watch all of my videso 1- 23 plus some others. They will help get you in the right frame of mind!
Thank you so much for what you have done for me personally, I am very grateful. I have been fighting half of my life for what you have said in this video.
interestingly what happened to me was a mind reset. I was always quite enlightened but indoctrinated by society (still am to a certain extent) it is a battle for sure because I may fall back to the ways of the world TV etc but I do not want to go back to that ! multiple perspectives are the way to go for sure but the right ones, there are many truths and my personal truth is important to me.
Spot on! Around 22 minutes. Brilliant! I wonder if any are left-handed also, and whether do they have an astrological pattern. Recommend the Teachings of Abraham to all to help understand yourself better. Hope this reaches you.
@BffsForLife24 In hindsight, it probably seems like a delusion once you've been euthymic for some time after a manic episode. But it's a completely different story once you're experiencing it in real-time. When I was at the height of my manic episode, my perspective had completely changed, so it's difficult to truly make sense of what happened when I'm currently "sane".
this video HELPED ME SO MUCH!
I can not disagree on, since I am experience something like this...
@acchildhoodsend My only justification is your personal experience. If you have had an experience of what is normally labelled 'acute psychosis' much of what I say you will identify with. With that said, all of the material I share in my work comes from a combination of personal experience, experience working with a few others directly, (family members included) feedback from 1000´s of people with bipolar disorder, and, most importantly, the work of Doctors Grof, John Weir Perry, & David Lukoff
a series of unfortunate events unfolded in my life and suddenly nothing made sense- on top of that i was learning at school that my entire view of the american way of life that i felt had been based on doing good in fact used a financial stranglehold cohesion and brute force to create the environment in which we live- as i came to these realization i was amazed at how unaffected by this knowledge that people were. Its not that we should set out to fix the world but not trying to mess it up seems like a good place to start-we consume mindlessly led by those that get fat and rich off the exploitation of the vacuum we create, and we have come to consume so much that our consumption has torn the fabric of existence for cultures all around the world. - our mistake as a culture is that we believe science and think that this means god cannot exist- like children who refuse to listen to their parents we refuse to acknowledge the importance of morals and slowly the world decays because of it- we spread pain and suffering, keeping a mindset that all is well-that sounds like bipolar to me. The minds that awaken to this are the one that can no longer ignore the truth-painful yes confusing yes-do i need a medicated coma no- sadly i feel the greatest drug to prevent such moralistic awakenings is the television- keep looking at your phone- keep listening to music that promotes sex violence and drugs- keep watching the news that keeps you in fear of the world to such a degree you are willing to beg the military to assume control over your life- and as our forming history writes us into a story where god does not exist and people are just smart animals dont be upset when your treated like one. And when you finally find yourself in the darkest hour of your life i pray that you will have the where with all to fully accept the divine spirit of wisdom and love for it is the only thing that could save you. It is this relationship that separates the awakening from the church-knowing you must in fact make decisions based upon divine will, rather than trusting appointed powers that claim to be under the very same divine guidance available to all of us. Again if you dont like the idea of thinking for yourself ignore idea of change and keep funneling as directed by the box in the corner.
Amen brother!
Very well said
You are smart and an amazing person . Thank you for this video. I am speechless .... Well done
Nice job Sean. Perhaps the next time I visit my son in Brasil I may try and catch one of your seminars? David Smith
I LOVE your channel! You give me so much hope!
Yes, it's very very interresting and helpful for the comprehesion and healing !!!
Awesome presentation!Thank you🙌🏾🙏🏾💜
GREAT video...Do you think a spiritual awakening can be put in a period of an 'episode'? Is there a time and space for this...? Very , very well done Sir X. Anyone if you feel to know more from the spiritual explanation look for : Kundalini Awakening. Love-Light to you all X
Just because you're at the same place at the same time as a famous person doesn't mean they're there to "see you" having objective friends explain a situation accurately helps keep you from being out of synch with reality.
thank you so much for this! I'm so happy to hear that I'm not alone. thanks again for the validation.
here is my question... what about people who are 90% of the time positive and who are higher up on the chart... but the psychosis experienced is not necessarily positive... could there be a traumatic event that is so great that can have a such a strong negative impact on people who are positive?
Based on my research, which involved having long e-mail conversations with people around the world for about 5 years, on the upper right of the chart, with high consciousness (post-modern/integral) and low trauma (far right) tend to have more positive spiritual experiences. If a higher consciousness person had 'high truama', they would find themselves on the upper left of the chart, where I have no circle. And yes, that happens, and yes, I would expect their psychosis to be more difficult, as you suggest. BTW, researchers in England have confirmed a link between trauma and personal development. Basically, the more traumatized you are, the more your personal development is inhibited.
I had bi polar to start then i got schizophrenia i have always been spiritual and physcic bi polar was low feeling no visions things went wrong sxhizophrenia began seeing visions again before being diagnosed in 2004 i feel more relaxed about it now and enjoy being physchic although i never get a hob in it saud pjychuatrisr but i remembberr my pasr time in heaven had visions of my future partner when 18 now 49 and im with him for 6 years past my parner has schizophrenia and i heal him bipolar is dedinently more fearful in physchicy and scary
On the spectrum i find myself to be higher to the right and lower left and the way you explained it i can understand why for my self this is having bipolar and a duality
6:18 minute mark - what are the key factors which would lead to someone having a more positive experience... For me it all comes down to pathways of thought. Where do our thoughts come from? Ourselves, God or Satan. Ensuring that I am always surrounded by Jesus, including scripture, music and videos related to the the Bible. If you are focusing on other gods, other music, other media, then you will likely have a bad experience that leads to death and destruction, not creativity and healing.
Can trauma be caused by acumulated experiences? I have tried to go back through my inner fears during my phsychoanalysis therapy but I could not identify which was the one that scared me the most, so I do not feel free yet...
Interesting thx well I just started to ask a lot of questions..
Your theory about trauma is a little off. Overall you are close to having answered some integral spiritual questions. I like where you are going with this, these are things I have known since my early diagnosis but had a hard time relaying to others who have questions. I fall in the upper left of the spectrum but have experienced severe traumas. My diagnosis is bi polar ADD/ADHD and PTSD. I have been able to push past the barrier of medication and retain my spiritual abundance only with out the use of Marijuana which caused my many episodes
of psychosis. It's a long journey out the rabbit hole as you say but there is a beautiful light at the end of the tunnle. I still believe we are here to save the world tho 😉
