CAN COMPASSION CHANGE SOCIETY TABOOS: MENTAL HEALTH?

Mental Health is strongest taboo 

 

Society is riddled with taboos and one of the strongest, lives as a parasite in the issue around MENTAL HEALTH. Today most families are affcted in some way, but its no good pointing the finger… because each one of us is responsible for following the social norm of what is acceptable/non-acceptable/forbidden and have created a society of parasites that allows people to feed off the energy of the vulnerable, stealing power, labelling them mad, crazy and violent and leave them in a box, pumped up with tranquillisers to make sure we all remain safe and happy.

 

You would have thought living in the 21st century, after so much experience… we could of created a civilised society where everyone is treated equally, lives comfortably and feels loved, supported and safe within our community. You would of thought we would know better than to continue to follow the norm (believing in OLD beliefs, patterns and behaviours) that alienate our fellow man who may find themselves caught up in a depression, anxiety or psychosis. We remain silent, we don’t talk about it because it’s unacceptable for people to make a nuisance of themselves… to hear voices, talk to themself, be afraid, violate themself or another.

 

Instead we observe how the queues at the Mental Health clinic become longer. We nod our head at the diagnosis and list of labels the doctors give regarding the dis-ease of the brain and mind. After all it is common knowledge that it is the chemical imbalance of the brain that is the cause and the reason why 95% of mentally ill patients are medicated. When someone tries to kill them self due to either the medication, feeling isolated or unworthy the doctors, with the help of the judge (who issues permission) will forcefully medicate you and lock you away… for everyones protection.

 

What has happened? Where is our conscience and resonance to help and support our fellow man? 

 

 

Well most of you know that I was born a rebel and have never liked taboos… people telling me what is acceptable and unacceptable, especially when its based on old traditions and untruths and missing the essential ingredient of compassion. I love to research things that I feel don’t add up and get to the bottom of things AND way and behold, I discover RELIGION (the Roman Catholic Church) is behind most of the injustice and power play played out today. We continue to be manipulated because we still believe the untruths that have been passed down, generation after generation. We remain the pawns as the game grows bigger and drowns us all.

 

We’ve fallen deep into the abyss of the Human game, forgetting our true origin and why we are living now. True passion and compassion no longer flow throughout humanity as we have lost all sight of our divine spark that guides us to live a life of unity, community, harmony and freedom. We have all but destroyed our ancient native communities and practice of being one with each other and the Environment, teaching each other the art of loving and healing self, which in turn keeps the community and the Environment whole in wellness.

 

In my research I’ve came across many links of men and women who are speaking out about the lack of compassion and treatment of mentally ill people in society. One blog/website, a film and a book in particular excited me so much… I have to share with you all. They share a similar understanding to myself and by joining forces we can be the change that can only flow into society. We are choosing to support, love and care for ourself and each other, just by being interested, and talking and listening about the issues around Mental Health.

 

It is time for us all to chose for ourself, to own our own power and magnificence and allow the flow of compassion from within to bring an end to this old taboo. IAM asking you to become interested and ask these questions too…

 

Are there spiritual aspects to mental illness? Is psychosis related to spiritual enlightenment or shamanism? Is there a relationship between shamanism, spiritual enlightenment and psychosis? Are these just breakdowns, or can they be breakthroughs?

 

I’d love to hear from you about this and any eye-opening truths that shake your world view wide open when reading this information. One of my eye-opening moments was watching the film and hearing that back in 1999 it had already been reported there being no truth found of chemical imbalance in mentally disturbed people AND doctors and psychiatrists are still being taught to mediate patients as an answer. Hello… knock knock…

Rethinking Madness

 

Rethinking Madness… towards a paradigm shift in our understanding and treatment of psychosis By Paris Williams PH.D. 

 

“Rethinking Madness is clear, thorough, fascinating and bold. It is written in easy to understand English, not postmodern jargon; it thoroughly examines and debunks the psychiatric model; and Williams is not afraid to make contro- versial affirmations. Anyone who is skeptical about the mental health system will be convinced after reading Williams’ book: There is an alternative.”

I claimed my own authentic power and magnificence and stepped out of the game… after intimate years getting to know my Divine Self and understanding the truth. I remain passionate about creating awareness about the manipulation of power… which will continue until all Humanity have claimed it for themselves.
