Default Re: A LOVE boost for JennyG: a call to all

Dear Jenny,

I don’t want to give any sympathy as I think its mis-leading, it suggests that you are not in control of getting well again. YOU CAN HEAL YOURSELF.

I will offer empathy though, as a sufferer of severe Psoriasis, I literally know your pain. It’s all wrapped with depression also so look at it that way if you can. It’s a symptom and not something you are creating or letting happen to you. It’s the same as a cut or a bruise, I find if I look at it that way it takes away all this mysterious power depression and aberrant mental focus has over me and over all of us, in fact.

I know you will find your own solution, but it does help to get a nudge in the direction. I think the first step is to change your mind. So what if yesterday you thought you might throw yourself out a window, so the hell what? Today or even before I am sure you changed your mind, as you are still with us. So it’s possible to change your mind – you already did it, so you are in control. It doesn’t matter that you nearly did it or thought about it for a long time. (Honestly everyone thinks of it at one point or another but by dammed they wouldn’t ever admit it for fear of what it would say about them – feck em if they want to lie to themselves.)

You are not a liar, you stuck out your virtual hand to the loving Mudra and asked for support or help or advice. So there again you broke a barrier. In fact you are on the cutting edge of some of the hardest things anyone may face and YOU ARE STILL HERE. In fact you are marvellous. Look at you!! It’s hard the circumstances you are in but look at what has happened already because of these direst of times. Blessings are annoying – they come wrapped like CD’s  Impossible to see inside until you have kept your cool and not smashed the thing to bits to get it open.

So I recommend spending some time learning to know how to change your mind and these people have all given me a really good head start, after which I was able to make my own decision about healing myself – its going pretty well !! Much respect to you for the strength to admit this is ****, you are street ahead and you don’t even realise it. High 5 !!

Jon Kabat-Zinn ideas are inspiring, see link below to a brief talk or his book “coming to your senses”

I find the british doctor Cristine Page very inspiring.
I have hundreds of resources to recommend if you like, but its best to find the kind of style of person whose information gets into to your head in the clearest fashion. I am scientific so particle physics lets me understand who I am but it might be fiction for you or flowers, who is to say. Chin up you are an example to behold !!
