Myrkhoos Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I frequently do, like, where was I? What happened? Like I was in a dark, unconscious place, in a sort of trance or naivite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it happens constantly to the point you struggle to function then you may have attention deficit disorder (ADD). This can be helped with counselling and medication.

Geezer Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 At my age just remembering what I had for breakfast is often a chore,......or if I even had breakfast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanForsman Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Are you possibly going through a period of considerable stress? Your losing focus to this extent can be dangerous, for example, when driving. You should take this seriously and resolve whatever issue or medical problem is causing you to enter into these altered states before something seriously bad happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrkhoos Posted June 22, 2019 Author Share Posted June 22, 2019 I see I have been grossly misunderstood. Possibly the phrasing was also misleading. I was talking about believing stupid things. As in how could I have believed that or did that ritual. How c 15 hours ago, DanForsman said: Are you possibly going through a period of considerable stress?

How could I have bern so naive, credulous. Tha trance, unconscious dark place was a metaphor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanForsman Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I see it now. The important thing is you're not going into trance like states. Yes Christianity steals your good judgment like a magician and when you figure that out it leaves you wondering like where have I been all this time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrkhoos Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 And anyway, going to doctors and therapists, plus my own research, I cam to the conclusion am dealing with some childhood issues,which have been severly accentuated to the point of complete mental and physical breakdown by religious practices and thought patterns that I, and I need to emphasize this because it is not everyone s experience, have done and experienced in the last years. I see now that that deep existential and identity searching process and questions are quite natural, with their whole set of sometimes disturbing experiences of grief, doubt, confusion, anger, fear, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanForsman Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Marlene Winell has done so much good research specific to many of the things you talk about. If you haven’t already do yourself a favor and get a copy of her book, “Leaving the Fold”. https://www.google.com/search?q=Marlene+Winell+videos&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari&dlnr=1&sei=jIUPXaDkGbHd9APho7KIAQ&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAONgVuLRT9c3zEguNDIxszB7xOjJLfDyxz1hKYdJa05eY7Ti4grOyC93zSvJLKkU0uFig7KUuASkUDRqMEjxcaGI8OxiYgvLTEnNL17EKuqbWJSTmpeqEJ6Zl5qTo1AGFgcA-ezAgX0AAAA&ictx=1&ved=0ahUKEwjBgrW_4f_iAhUoHjQIHeZlBN4Qw_oBCHc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
