I am interested in knowing if anyone has mentally helped someone and I mean by this mentally felt like you projected your very being to that person and then has felt lost themselves afterwards. I at one time had a terminally ill child that I projected all my soul towards and she lived, however since that time I have honestly felt like I am missing a part of me or my soul that can never be regained. I would really like to know if anyone out there has felt the same. It is sometimes very lonely not feeling like a complete person regardless of the fact that my daughter is alive and I would definitely do it all again.

Thanks!!

Luke 8:46-47
"And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me. And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately."

Healing is for all who believe, and have contact with the invisible.
Your soul - psyche, or whatever you wanna call it can do things that
cannot be done naturally. It could be something we inherited from
our creator... The power to heal. What do you think?

I'm able to heal to certain extend but whatever i take i cannot ground. So i get very very weak and ill a lot of the time, especially recently. I even lost my job 2 weeks ago because i was so ill.

Beario, You didn't say what religion you are. If you were a Pagan I would tell you this, you need grounding. Go out into a forest and sit on the ground. Draw from the Earth what you have lost. I have a whole ritual I go though that I do not wish to go into on a public board. PM me it you want. I am glad your Daughter I healthy again. Blessed Be.

Wow, beario. It's wonderful that your child is all right now, but I'm sorry that you feel you lost a part of yourself. How long was your child ill? Any extended illness, especially a terminal (or thought to be terminal) one, will wear down family members of the sick person. Have you taken any time for yoursel, since your child got well? Assuming that she is healthy now, and that you have a husband or partner or someone to keep an eye on her (if she's old enough) or flat-out babysit her (if she's still young), you might want to consider some sort of spa vacation for yourself, or a spiritual retreat (whatever faith you are, if any). I know that some monasteries offer rooms for rent cheap, and you don't have to be Catholic or Christian, you can just be there, and rest.

Alternatively, or maybe in addition, you might want to consider some therapy. I hope you don't take offense at that -- I by no means mean it in any sort of bad way, I just think that it might help you work through your feeling of being incomplete, and maybe get you back to feeling like yourself, whole.

Also -- did you give up some creative or artistic pursuit when your child got ill? For example, did you used to paint, and gave it up to take care of her? If so, now that she's well again, you could take it up again. Maybe that's what's missing.

I hope at least some of this has been helpful, and that you're feeling back to yourself soon. original.gif

Sorry if im raining on everyones parade. Its not that i don't believe you, its just that im a stronger believer in presenting all the posiblieties. Here it goes.

Maybe the problem is all physcological. If your child was very sick for a long time, you would have mentally adjusted to careing for him/her. Now your child suddenly gets better. You are so used to careing for your child and suddenly you don't have to nearly as much. It can feel as if something is missing. Some parents get the same feeling when their child starts trek out on their own. Just a suggestion, consider it. It may not be right, but at the same time it could.
