Re-experiencing Repressed Memories, ...

I've been working on my health issues (adrenal fatigue, detoxification, etc.) for about 15 years, and have made a lot of progress. In early May I experienced two spontaneous re-births less than a week apart. About three weeks ago I did a big yoga workshop which caused me re-experience a lot of old repressed memories. It left me feeling exhausted and depressed. My adrenals crashed about a week and a half ago, and I've been having a very hard time since then. I've been feeling fatigued and suicidal lately.
The re-births and yoga workshop have not made things better for me, they've made them a lot worse. Can anyone help me? I don't know what do to. Thanks.

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,456,310I know exactly how you feel. I was doing a Water Fast and I had recurring memories. It was awful and I too became extremely suicidal. I talked it out with a mod on the fasting forum and he helped me see that is was a phase and it would pass. Indeed it did pass but it took awhile. The memories never all came out because of my failed Water Fast but I know they need too. They told me that I need to handle the past but quite frankly I think my mind was telling me no way.

Hi Sara - Thanks for sharing. I've been doing a lot of work on my health the last 15 or so years, and this came completely out of the blue. Since the re-birth experiences I've been re-experiencing a lot of repressed memories, and this has not been easy. I feel like I've opened Pandora's Box. It's been making things a lot worse for me lately, and I can't see any end in sight. I'm falling back into old, unhealthy habits, and I feel powerless and lost. I can't see any good coming out of any of this.

This is a reply to # 1,456,315You will get better. I was the same exact way and gained some weight. I wanted the pain to stop so I ate. It is funny to get healthy we have to clear our minds but the mind is full of so many awful memories, that we choose instead to go back to eating and unhealthy and then the pain stops. So maybe we have this big bad genie in our brain.
I wrote to people and said I want to die and this is so wrong what is wrong with me. After I realized it was self destruction and it would soon pass I waited. It did get better after awhile but let me tell you it came with much pain and suffering. But you must hang on and be patient. You must know that there are bright tomorrows coming. It is a test for you, and it will all pass. If you feel like have a ice cream, eat but sparingly and if you feel like doing something just do it. Yesterday, I screamed at everyone cause I am in awful pain. My cat died, my best friend. So I needed to scream. I needed to tell someone I hurt. So I am suggesting the same thing to you. You need to write about this and scream and holler and your real friends will understand and then tomorrow you will feel lighter I promise, well maybe you will have less friends but hey you will be well and alive. You will survive. Journal your plight and go open a blog. I know I have 4 and yes 4 forums too. I am the mod of Sara's Soup Kitchen, black seed forum and two Islamic forums. I have a blog about Islam, one about celebrities and one about recipes of the rich and famous and one about animals and oh my God forgot, I have one about longevity.
See things do get better and yo do survive, just takes some internet hugs and good wishes. So go open a blog and tell everyone you hurt and tell everyone what you will be doing tomorrow or just tell them to go to blazes. It is your life enjoy everyday and every moment with no regrets.

This is a reply to # 1,456,310I would think the re-experiencing or repressed emotions is a step forward. It is also understandable how this could lead to depression, or suicidal feelings, etc. Certainly contact a suicide hotline or a doctor if you find yourself beginning to formulate a plan etc., but I would hang in there with your yoga practices as a vehicle for moving beyond these re-emerged feelings.

Very sorry to hear about how you feel.
I agree with Caballo. And like Sara, hoping this is just a passing phase.
There are also lots of natural aides out there - like Bach flowers, or drinking St John´s Wort tea, that´ll help with these "bad" and suicidal times. Bach Flowers are INCREDIBLY amazing and will help almost right away.
You may have "pushed" the kundalini with the intensive Yoga course, so do a search. Ask the Yoga instructors for any help they may have to offer. Over-doing anything is usually not the right way....
Let´s hope some of these suggestions may help. Praying for protection for you on your journey. God bless!

This is a reply to # 1,456,310I assume that you live in Seattle, SeattleTom. How long have you lived there? I lived on that rainy coast for a number of years and suffered the ill effects that lack of sunshine can bring. I tried to compensate but what did I end up doing? I moved to someplace with sun and it's like night and day (pun intended) health wise. Suicide and fatigue are common in the Seattle area. Nearby Tacoma Washington was the suicide capital of the US not long ago.
If you have a rainy disposition and want a sunny disposition, move to somewhere sunnier. I will never again live in a place with that little amount of sunshine. I have seen what it does to people and it changed me too. Yes there are depressed people in the sunbelt and sunlight is not a panacea but it is one of the foundations of health that can not be compensated for - no matter how much caffeine or nocotine or sunlamp you use. You can always get out of the sun but you can't get real sunlight any other way than from the source.

Big AMEN to that, 89855!! There is nothing more depressing than an endless stretch of gray days. Cold Bay, Alaska has got to be the worst with only 10 clear days a year. Seattle is not far ahead with only 51 clear days a year.
My fair city enjoys an average of 115 clear days each year.
Most places with over 125 clear days are in very arid regions. I think I'll stay where I am because I like flowers and green grass to go along with that sunshine.

This is a reply to # 1,456,674Speaking of rainy days....Have you had your vitamin D levels tested? Optimal levels are thought to be above 60. Sub optimal levels of D can lead to depression. I live in Virginia and when I had my levels tested last year my level was 11.
Also, I've just recently been doin' a little experiement. I've added raw apple cider vinegar to my diet (because of all the goodness it provides -- minerals, enzymes, alkalinity...) and incorporated it into The Master Cleanse lemonade recipe. I've mixed equal portions of apple cider vinegar, fresh lemon juice, raw honey and grade b maple syrup. I put 2-3 tablespoons, with a couple of dropperfuls of cayenne pepper tincture in 8 oz of water 2-3 times a day and I'm noticing more energy, and my indigestion is improving. I'm not fasting, because with adrenal fatigue, fasting is a no-no. Also, I've started taking mega doses of vitamin C. I've been taking 8 grams for about a week and today, I've upped it to 12 grams. I'm taking mulit-mineral ascorbate C. I'm feeling better than I've felt in a long time. Also, I've already lost 5 pounds!!!
So, are you taking any vitamin C? Remember, depleted adrenals NEED huge amounts of vitamin C. If you've cut back your C intake because your adrenals were better, you might be needing to add it back.

This is a reply to # 1,456,855Hi,
I too have had a lot of repressed memories and have felt suicidal. When I did yoga feelings emerged. I was not used to that. Then body memories...
I too have felt suicidal. Worse feeling in the world. I fiinally found a therapist (after 20 years of searching and trying) that will go through the trauma with me as it is too hard to bear alone.
I have found a lot of wise words on curezone too.
I used to live in Seattle and my health and Depression grew worse. I moved to MN where I had more support and then moved to FL where it is sunny. I think my next move is NM where it is dry. but wherever I go my memories and problems go with me.
