I Have Depression

[Medz]

I have had some success with the LOA, enough to make me a believer, but I can't control it. I have done everything that we should do to manifest and been successful, but accidentally.
What I mean is that there is an x factor that is usually missing and I don't know how to explain it... it feels like a fire inside, a connection, a powerful confidence...
What ever that is, I can't control it. Sometimes it is in me and sometimes no.
I have to also explain that I have depression. It is under control, but still, it makes it so hard to feel happy or confident.
Anyone has any experience with what I'm talking about?

I have flashes where I go from incredibly happy to as low as low can be. No one knows about it though. I used to be SO desperate to be happy and use the LOA, but it always felt like the trying was ripping me apart. I'm better now, and I have advice to share. ;)

Start using EFT. There's information on it all over this site. I'd use it for a couple minutes every day. Using your voice during EFT to get things off your chest helps unbelievably much. Start to love yourself. You are a beautiful person. Understand that what's happened in the past all happened to make you grow. If you can get to this state, you will begin to feel like you have power running through your veins and you have more control. The more love you give to yourself, the more the universe will love you and will want to please you. I used to not be able to attract anything with the LOA because I felt like I believed in it but didn't have the power to use it. Now I can attract so many things. I hope this helped.

Hallo

I can truly say I know what you are talking about. I am on anti-deppresants for 7 years now and with the medication it is going well.

Until I started to live the Law of Attraction. My thoughts are posisitive and I feel great. Life is great.

There is a CD out called Positive Attraction, with 20 feel good songs. I pop it in my car every morning and just sing along to my believes. It is based on the Law of Attraction and you cannot but help to feel good and positive.
You should get yourself one it will change your life.

I suffered from depression for a long time and it was awful,I know this might sound weird but I was diagnosed with breast cancer and when I found out my depression went because instead of focusing on what I didn`t have I suddenly realised how many things I had to be grateful for and I had no choice ,if I got more depressed it could cost me my life and I suddenly had such a desire to stay alive,which is weird because before all this I didn`t see much point in being alive.I was thirty three with two boys age seven and three and a single parent.I`m now forty in a loving relationship,my children are fourteen and ten and i`m so happy to be there for them.I know it`s a shame it took such a shock to make me appreciate what I had.

The law of attraction is good but if we have blocks that stop us believing we deserve things then its difficult to manifest.Esther and Jerry Hicks have good books out that can help.Also Joe Vitale,The missing Secret can help.Depression is not an easy thing to get rid of but meditation helps to be more in the moment.Would like to help more if I can .Send me a message and maybe I could say something that will help.Love and lots of lightxx

I've found excellent success with EFT - during the day tapping on the karate chop collapses anxiety...

In addition to the traditional pattern of tapping I use EFT simultaneously with a mirror - looking into each eye and saying "even though..." about 6 (or more pending intensity) complete rounds alternating eyes ... when looking into the eye I allow my mind to bring a person, place or thing into my awareness - I feel it as I tap - continuing to tap until the energy has collapsed following with positive affirmations tapped in using the same method. Profound changes occur.

Happy day! -Glenda

Hi Medz,
wow thats a name alright!!!
I so know what you are talking about. what I have experienced is like; the only way I can describe it is that it stagnates. You are so busy thinking about positive thoughts that you think OMG that what I was thinking and how I have become aware of how I was thinking before; scares me. It takes up your mind space yet in writing that, it is a good thing. I have learnt to take things as they are but be who I am. I am kind and be live the way I want to live without thinking about what others see. I was really bad at that now to bluntly put it I live for ME!!!. This is my affirmation when I start turning into that state; maybe it could be in connection with you. "The Universe is accomodating to my needs, my desires, The Universe is making things happen for Me." Just remember we are human and we are allowed to be angry, and the LOA is a learned thing that you have adapted to and just ajusted to.

Joy and Happiness

Love

I read in a book by a psychiatrist who suggested eating 2 bananas a day, it helps with the serotonin. He says it’s usually hereditary due to dietary needs of your ancestors, you might like to read his book it’s called “blue genes, by Dr Paul Meyers.
When I’m down this helps, that and dark chocolate!

I highly recommend a supplement called SAM-e.

Very good for raising one's over-all mood, and also aids in joint pain, and liver function.

Vitacost sells it relatively cheaply.

Also good is Robert Smith's YouTube site (he's developed a simplified, and effective form of EFT that works for most problems related to stress, etc.).

The trouble with a "diagnosed" disease, is that we have already given over our control to an outside force, medical, pharmaceutical, drugs, monitorings etc. What the medical people then say is SO powerful that we are "scared" to pull away, take our power back and "cure" our disease.

Every illness is something we caused. And every illness can be stopped by us, healed by us and we can change our thought patterns to never have that disease again. The only way to heal a disease is to get up one day and say "I am Healed", today the 1st of March 2009 ! Then accept FULLY that some prolonged emotional turmoil caused this disease to change from an emotionally charged set of thoughts to a "physical manifestation" or a physical disease, a chemical imbalance, a hormonal imbalance. No amount of drugs will heal you, drugs hold the disease in a "stasis". It may feel good for a while to feel the the disease is halted, but this is not healing, this is management.

Thank you body for manifesting the "physical disease", as this is a warning sign to stop the emotional torture of yourself. Once you say "I am Healed", you are healed, the disease is GONE, but it will come back if you keep on thinking the negative thoughts that caused it. Look at how many people get Cancer and have it treated and are "cured" and go home only to be back at the Doctors surgery a year or two later with another Cancer. The doctor managed to excise the diseased tissue, but the patient did nothing to change the "emotional turmoil", the resentment to a family member, the gnawing frustration towards the employer, the anger at an abuser etc So the Cancer is formed again, by the same thoughts and emotions.

So there are two parts to healing, The moment of Healing, and the recognition of the cause and making changes there so that the disease NEVER comes back again.

It is fear that keeps us in a static state with a medical opinion or a treatment with drugs. We "believe" more in the doctor and his belief that this disease is incurable, we believe in his "expertise". So if he says it is incurable then we want to stick by him as he will keep us "ticking over", but never cured.

There is nothing wrong with Doctors or Medicine or drugs, but they are as limiting as many religions. What you need when you are sick, is FAITH. Faith in yourself, or faith in a Healer, a Jesus figure, someone who can say to you absolutely 100% you are HEALED, and in that moment you are HEALED. You can be that person, you can have faith that you caused this disease over many months or years but you can HEAL it today, this minute. JUst say it and it is done. Then look at your record of negative thinking and vow to change it, as now that you are healed you never, never want it to come back again.

PHysical symptoms can go on for some time after you have HEALED the disease, but once you have made the decision that you are healed, the physical symptoms start to fade away, because you are no longer saying I am still ill, I have "such and such disease", so you are no longer holding "physical symptoms" in place or in a static state.

I am cured of a degenerative neuromuscular disease. I looked for cures for 3 years, many things helped but it was not until I learned that there had to be a DAY where I would accept that I was now Healed that the symptoms could start to go away. My healing day was Christmas even 2008. I, after several attempts to say it and believe it, I said it, I AM HEALED. It took time for it to really sink in that it is true. But now I am SO glad. I take no medication, I go to no support groups, I still have difficulty wanting to research the medical side of this disease and to read about it. But what I do know is that the current Medical knowledge is wrong, it is limited, it is based on a particular type of limited logical scientific thinking, but does not include quantum theories or the spiritual dimension. Every illness is curable, because we made it, and we can stop it and we can then prevent it. We are the creators of it, we are the healers.

Now when I get a twinge of a cold or an ache, I thank my body for the early warning sign, that some of my thoughts and emotions are starting to manifest as physical symptoms and I check my flow of thoughts, usually be making a concerted effort to sing, be happy, be grateful, and avoid the situations that cause me to overthink.

I dont ever want to be sick again, I enjoy health now and I want to get healthier and happier.

Love and light Gen

I have had depression for so many years, and I tried many different techniques. A while ago I found out about self hypnosis.
There is a hypnotist, writer and healer, Dr. Laura De Giorgio. Her website adress is: www.deeptrancenow.com
She has many very helpful hypnosis and subliminal, supraliminal and supraliminal plus recordings. There are also a lot of free hypnosis downloads, which I have found very helpful. I have not bought any recording so far, and I´m not involved in any affiliate program with her or so, just in case you believed this. I´m not financially interested in promoting her.
But I am so grateful that I have found her page, it feels like this information has been put in front of my nose just in time.
I wish you all the best, and don`t forget:
There is always plenty of help out there, you just have to find it!
Take care,
bigcat

What makes you happy? What do you like?

Sometimes, a nice spray can work or a small fountain.

Use something like I have nice weather.
What are you focusing on?

[kevin connolly]

Sure do have experience with it.....It's called ego. The ego want to control everything of form and content. There is a really good book on the market by Eckhart Tolle on the subject. It's called "A New Earth..." In it he writes about the ego and how it functions on both an individual and a collective basis. To my surprise and enjoyment he also writes about depression in a term he calls "pain-body". Definitely worth a read.
Hey look at that!!! Another successful manifestation!!
