    Baby Boomers Got A Rough Deal - No Doubt

    I'm a survivor as many of us are. Throw toxic crap and electronic warfare my way, I just get stronger. One thing I gleaned from all this - that I would never be anyone's victim. I'd probably wipe the floor with them before that would or could ever happen. So yeah - another war, another day in...

    Baby Boomers Got A Rough Deal - No Doubt

    well you'd have to be on the East Coast during the 50's to understand and be effected. You can google human experimentation during the 50's if you like. It's all there - from lobotomies to electric shock, to isolation of babies, to trauma-based mind control - the whole entire nine yards. I...

    Baby Boomers Got A Rough Deal - No Doubt

    That's right. The medical/pharmaceutical industries were giving out downers/uppers/diet pills and speed like it was candy. And it was ALL about appearances and being programmed with the dream of ad makers on Madison avenue. And in other countries they didn't have the benefit of being programmed...

    Baby Boomers Got A Rough Deal - No Doubt

    I still can't put any emotion into my writing. it's all pretty much cut and dry. I wanted to just put out there that there are those among us who were born during the 50's who got a very rough deal especially. A few of us were chosen to be part of some larger experimentation deal. What it was -...

    From Teenage Runaway To Adult Homelessness

    Putting pieces together. I started running away actually when I was a toddler. I first had to break down the crib I was left in for hours at a time, then make my way downstairs and out the door and across the street. It took a while till anyone noticed my *absence. But that became a routine in...

    Experience With Mdma

    Shame I can't post links - but there has been new evidence - full-out EVIDENCE - of some fungi being therapeutic in the healing - see also curing of PTSD. I'm pretty sure if you do a search you can find it. Again - the usual caveats are in place. But there doesn't seem to be any type of disorder...

    How do you deal with triggers?

    Triggers become manageable the more you make friends with them and are able to internalize some kind of superhuman strength to rise above them - to some degree - some are more manageable than others. But - one does need help. It's almost impossible to do this kind of rising above/internalizing...

    Why Do I Feel That I Don't Belong. Where Is Home?

    This is a very volatile subject but probably holds the key to everything that's been shaken to the core in the heart, mind and soul. That essence of being safe, wanted, secure and happy. I pray that this day, we look and FIND that place within to connect and heal that part. Bring back the parts...

    Why Do I Feel That I Don't Belong. Where Is Home?

    For myself I've pondered this - as I am homeless right now and these thoughts occupy my mind. It could very well be for me, as I am now in my 50's that I do not have a home and maybe to resign myself to be a wanderer, a nomad, a refugee. This is the reality for so many now. In the millions. I...

    So, I'm In The Middle Of Being Triggered By Cigarette Smoke

    The cycle has to stop somewhere. People in this situation are like in a trance-like state. You have to gently get them back to reality and let them know that they've gone to a bad place that's causing a lot of pain in the world. Awareness might set in and that's a real beginning of something...

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    I hear what you're saying. I'm getting where you're coming from and how this wasn't a match. I did skim over some of the material out there on this modality and I picked up a weird vibe about it - like 20% of it was based on universal laws and Truth and the rest was channeled. Erroneously. That...

    Experience With Mdma

    I haven't had any experience with MDMA, but I have heard directly anecdotal evidence of LSD, ayuhasca and ibogaine being very helpful in alleviating trauma and addiction. Surroundings, caretakers and guides need to be very knowledgeable and caring and that needs to be established through doing...

    So, I'm In The Middle Of Being Triggered By Cigarette Smoke

    That's one of my sensory triggers. Smoke, pollution - where I can't breathe, escape - the whole nine yards and just had to get the f out of dodge and bought a bottle wine. Had just one glass and out of the blue - SOB out of the blue - my neighbor starts screaming at the top of her lungs at her 8...

    Amazing! Good news indeed. Small world getting smaller. It seems that the book is making waves. May this be the best of all beginnings and journeys. :)

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    Will look into this. Thank you Sun Seeker. You are truly a gift to this one who has been seeking for someone out there to help. So grateful. Will also look into this. Even if you have not benefited from this particular *brand* of healing modality, it could actually be because it needed the...

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    I stopped looking many years ago for what is called *therapy* and have opted to seek out *cure* with very new methodologies that aren't readily available and those that are involved with these methodologies don't advertise their services. In the past when I still was reluctantly willing to give...

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    I've been housed - but never felt at Home. Never felt at ease and never ever felt welcomed or wanted. It was always as if I was a stranger in a strange land, living on a prayer and wing at the mercy of the owner of the house and at any moment I could be kicked out for breaking a rule or for...

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    Womb is the first home. First layer of relational experience - and that becomes part of our subconscious. Very first fragile layers. We absorb everything that our mothers experience. From her emotions, to the chemicals (deadly or enlivening) to the language that is spoken or screamed and...

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    Dear, dear @sun seeker. I understand what you did convey. Completely. And agree with your viewpoint of spirituality as well. I never got that we were here to see things from the other person's perspective when reincarnating - for me that was never clear. Thank you for this important learning...

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    It's stuff that just kept building and building without knowing where to put the feelings or myself. It seems all about placement and organization - where to put my experiences, emotions and self - and how. And the more basic of questions - if everything has its place in the world, where is...

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    I understand this. I was conceived when my parents were drunk and they subsequently divorced right after. Then my mother tried to kill me and commit suicide by jumping out of a moving car. And that was just a few episodes in the first few months. Killings self was an old pattern I'd have droning...

    The Unhoused Mind - C-trauma And The Sense Of Never Belonging

    Thanks Chava, I really resonated with what you wrote. Can also identify with mother issues and early medical procedures (completely unneccessary - and oh so very traumatic). Yes, woods. I once lived in the woods for 5 years. It was bliss but did have also flashbacks. Nature does have a way of...
