Seeking the Truth wrote:I thought maybe I was just going even more crazy than before. Starting on the 13th, I have been an emotional mess. For three days straight, all I could do was cry. Every day. Thinking that I was losing my mind. I was so depressed. Just thinking about how f*cked up the world is and how I feel so helpless to effect a change. So I cried and cried and hoped to find an answer.
I understand what you're talking about, Seeking. The first time I had one of those crying "episodes" was back in 1995. I also thought I was losing my mind. In the middle of the morning at work one day, I just felt this overwhealming despair and tragic sadness. The desire to weep was insurmountable. I tried to fight it, but I had to literally run to the washroom every 5 minutes to not make a scene in the office. Talk about the ultimate "ugly cry". It felt as though I was weeping for all of earth's tragedies, feeling the pain and sacrifice of all the past, present and future events all at once, and helpless to do anything about it. I felt (and somehow internally "saw") the inevitable destiny of the world and the aftermath of events.
Around the same time, when I'd be driving home, I'd see this "overlay" of the possible future landscape superimposed onto the actual land and buildings. It looked as though there had been some kind of war or disaster, and there were no people left, only blown-apart, crumbling houses and dried, cracking earth, and the entire sky and landscape were covered by a reddish sort of haze. I really thought I was going insane! I mentioned what I'd seen to my best friend in a phone conversation at the time, and she blurted out what a relief it was to know that she wasn't the only one, because she'd seen the same type of thing when she was driving to or from work sometimes too, and she thought she was going crazy! (And she's not really a believer of such things, either.)
Nothing ever "happened" to fulfill these "premonitions", though, and I chalked it up to stress induced tricks my own mind was playing on me. But now, I'm thinking that we just narrowly avoided a catastrophic fate back in 1995. There must have been a change in the timeline, and we were fine... up until now, that is.
About 2 months ago, I had another "episode" of crying, and it just came out of nowhere. I had gotten a bit angry about something totally unrelated, and had worked myself up a bit over it. (Y'know when you get so mad that you talk to yourself under your breath and stuff) And all of a sudden, I just busted out crying, and I do mean "busted out"... it was one of those massive "ugly cries". I immediately thought I'd finally "snapped" because they say that having strong emotional outbursts that aren't appropriate to a given situation is a sign of various psychological maladies. The only thing was, though, that any trace of anger I had before was completely gone and replaced again with the feelings and thoughts that had accompanied the crying episodes back in '95 (and those weren't "triggered" by anything)! I sat there, bawling, and absolutely stunned and scared out of my mind, knowing that whatever this was, it did not originate from me, and I couldn't "control" it. It was like when they break into television programs for "Breaking News" (except, there was no voice in my head that said, "We apologize for interrupting your normally scheduled program...") I think some people who are more sensitive to picking up certain frequencies must accidentally(?) tap into some kind of information that becomes "active" in our little "matrix" world. Well, that's just one theory, anyway.
I really have no idea what it actually is or means. But I can tell you, Seeker, that you're not the only one, and I doubt that you're going crazy. If you are, then so are a bunch of other people (who you don't "know"), because we're all going crazy in the same ways at the same times. All we can do is try to hang onto what sanity we have left, and to try and keep our chins up and our hearts and minds focused on intending the best possible outcome for the future of us all.

Since most of the NR folks have the same thing going on, I'm beginning to wonder if it's not some other source that has to do with all of us awakening and preparing for the next wave. Maybe they're trying to get us all on the same track to attune to whatever is coming.
That's possible too. I wonder if it might not be a kind of "test tone" to sort of tune us individually to the appropriate frequency. (I keep getting the image again of the TV test tone, "This is a test. This is only a test. If it were an actual emergency, this tone would be followed by instructions....") Wanna hear one even weirder? (This started about 6mo's-1yr ago)...Occassionally, when I'm near something (like my dad's old computer and huge CRT monitor) that gives off big EMF field (and I guess it must be a particular frequency, as well), I actually hear what sounds like a radio talk show, but the voices are too far away to make out what is actually being said! I know how crazy that sounds, but it doesn't happen all the time, and the first time I heard it, I thought that someone had left the radio or TV on in the other room, but when I checked, everything was off! I didn't say anything to anyone because I thought I must have just imagined it. But a few weeks later, my dad told me that he thought I'd left the radio or TV on one night (because he'd heard the same exact thing), but when he'd gone to check, everything was off, too! We joked about our dental fillings picking up Oprah, and also about "implants gone wild" and stuff, but we both agree that if we start actually hearing something clear (like instructions of some sort), we're goingg to check ourselves into a nice padded suite! LOL!

Everything really sucks right now. I'm trying to keep my head above water, but it sometimes feels like I could drown at any moment. Just one wrong move...I'm trying so hard to find something good to keep me from going under. Every day I struggle and look for happiness, but it's so damn hard. And by being sad and confused, I'm letting them get the upper hand. They're so smooth, and there's so much going on in the world that it's easy to get depressed about it. So I am taking it one emotion at a time. Wondering if there's anything that can be done. Is this how it has to be? Is this the planet of sorrow? Is there no changing it because that's just the way it is? Can anything be changed? Can I make change by myself? Can I use the LOA to help? I just want to help and I don't know how. I don't know what to do or where to go....
Buck up, brave camper! We all came here, at this particular time in history, to make it through to the end (whatever that may bring). Remember, it's always darkest before the dawn. There's nothing that the "bad guys" would love more than to take out as many of us as they can when we're in our most vulnerable "transitionary" moments. Just remember that there are more than a few of us out there, and we're all pulling towards the same happy ending, leaning on each other when things get "muddy". There's going to be plenty of sunshine right after the big storm. We just have to remember to hold on and not get swept away in it.
