I would just like to share some stuff that I'm really struggling bad with yet can't seem to fully open up. Although I have full understanding of why, this last near death experience I had is just dragging me down. Nothing about it was pleasant and the things I saw and the noises I heard just won't leave. There were a couple scenes from the movie Passion of the Christ which were perfectly set in that experience. I don't like the word Hell but I'm almost certain that's where I was this time. I know it sounds crazy and I feel like I'm crazy at times but other than talking to someone super close to me, this is the only space I feel I can safely let it out without being judged. I haven't been able to sleep right and I admit I have been using a lot of sleeping pills just to get a few hours every night. This year totally broke me but it also built me to a strength I never knew I had. Yes I am incredibly proud of myself I was able to let go of the things that haunted me for years providing relief and finally be able to move forward. For the very first time ever, the chains that were holding me down finally broke and I am free. I think I'm just having a really hard time accepting it all and I am asking for help from anyone in this circle.
