Dear chateau crew,
Thank you so much for the session, it really came at the right time!
Something must indeed be in the air - my family and I also felt rather low for the last month or so.
My sister's narcissistic boyfriend walked out on her in the middle of the night after four years of relationship. He then moved in with my sister's narcissistic girlfriend who severed all relations. Not that it isn't good riddance (here the be nice program kicks in and says what a nasty thing to say, but I'll leave it anyways), but since she didn't know what they were like, it was very painful. Similar things happened all over her circle of friends.
Whenever I went into Dad's workshop this weekend, I heard this voice in my head telling me what it could do to my body with all the sharp edged things there. Nothing like that happened in any other part of the house, only down there. And it set in instantly every time I entered that room. I remembered that I had the same sort of scary thoughts in certain places when I was a kid, never since then though...
So I told the voice "I'm all grown up now, I know who you are and I'm not afraid of you". It kept carrying on though, so at some point I walked into the workshop, went "oh, shut up" and away it went.
I thought I was going round the bend, but the recent session explains so much.
The thing about music I noticed also - I gave up listening to the radio while driving a while ago, since the music they play annoys me at best and makes me seriously depressed at the worst. I usually only turn the radio on at a specific time to listen to traffic and weather news, and then turn it off again. Not enough Pink Floyd on the radio, not even the Who :) If they play old music, it's always the Laurel Canyon brigade :(
Also noticed a sudden craving for unhealthy foods (haven't given in except for a bit of chocolate, which I've regretted) and dissociation, as in everything felt like too much of hard work and I just wanted to forget for a while (didn't give in to that at all).
Please hang in there, there will be roses to enjoy eventually Especially if we're all supposed to be the help that's on the way...
