Rewire dampening advice - can't sleep

@euphemistic thanks for the comments. I actually managed to 'feel' my emotions at last and it was pure fear. My solar plexus feels much easier now and I have accessed my emotions more since, it's like learning how to feel emotions properly from scratch. I now realise that opening a chakra is not an all or nothing thing so still lots of work to do but I'm going in the right direction.My feelings a few days ago sound very much like yours at the moment. Once I really felt the emotion it was like a switch being thrown and I went from the depths of self pity to elation. It was very liberating.

Might not be something you would be comfortable doing but could you ask your spirit guides to help you fight the 'dark presence'? I have felt mine around me several times in the last few days and it's strange but I felt one stood next to me and I was suddenly filled with love like the energy was being given to me. It jumped across right into my chest and filled me almost like an energy beam. I have to admit it made me rather emotional (it's the solar plexus thing!) and I shed a few tears.
I have asked my guides to help me a few times and they have. If it is truly a dark energy then they will help. If it is a buried emotion they might help you find it. Bit weird, but if you believe it they are there to help you, and will if you ask.

@smudgefish, thanks I'll try it. I'm not familiar with spirit guides. I'll have to search and summon them I guess. I get a sense of real balance/stability from you and some others here. You give me confidence to consider what otherwise would sound unfamiliar thus weird 🙂

@euphemistic - I wouldn't call myself balanced at the moment!!One of my clairvoyant patients told me all about spirit guides, and 2 clairvoyants including her have told me that my main guide is my grandmother who died when I was about 8, but apparently we all have several guides.
I don't think you need to summon them they are with you all the time, you just have to ask and look for the answers which can come in different ways. I think I am slowly becoming more aware of mine being present and it is very comforting.

I think you switched on God Mode.

Today was a much better day. I slept a solid 10 hours last night without any sleep aids, and then another 4 in the afternoon. Not having to work was a blessing. I got caught in the rain during my run and it was surprisingly exhilarating.

I lapsed into mini-O's only when I tried to meditate. Granted, I've never meditated in earnest before this week, so I'm probably not doing it right. There is a ball of energy in my root, and unless I am distracted from it, it will grow in strength until I succumb to the tremors. Meditation only seems to force my attention to it.

@smudgefish I'd hardly consider you behind me by any means. You've got a lot going on, and I have one symptom (albeit large and distracting) that I'm hoping I can successfully treat in time. I am very grateful for the information you've shared thus far - it's put me down a path of study that I would never have considered before.

@The_Bishop interesting you say that. I have very bad experience of organised religion (I will moderate my thoughts so as not to upset anyone who is religious). This is not about religion, although I imagine someone going through this might interpret it as a religious experience. I feel a bit like a nutter just a very happy one who has finally found a way to access what I think I have always been looking for.To start with I thought it was all over-active hormones and an active imagination but I have given in to it because whatever it is it's good.

@ontherocks I'm really pleased you have also found this. It's the best 'thing' ever. I just wish I could get some sleep I haven't had a good nights sleep since this started, 4am is my new getting up time; and I'm back to work tomorrow six 12-14 hour days in a row is going to kill me.

Now I do sound like some sort of religious head case.

@isvara I thought your posts were interesting no more off topic than some of the rubbish I post!

It's a joke. One only reserved for computer programmers, nerds and the new generation in general. 😛

@ontherocks how ya holding up? Anything new?

Has anybody experienced any dizziness? Ever since my experience a couple night ago I get waves of dizziness like I'm on ocean swells or something. It was this feeling that led to my super o, but now it won't seem to go away. Any tips on "dampening" this or will it resolve on it's on. This is really the only symptom that is beginning to get the best of me. It's making me feel a bit queasy.

Also, I want to add it's not like spinning dizziness. It's more of feeling off balance like an inner ear thing. I forgot about one more thing that happened last night going to bed. I felt this pounding pressure around my tailbone. It wasn't really painful, but not pleasurable either. Just annoying and made it hard to fall asleep. I've read some things about Kundalini Awakenings and am wondering if what I'm experiencing is related to this. Laying down seems to relieve the queasy feeling, but I still feel like I'm bobbing up and down on waves.

@all

Kundalini syndrome, huh?

Now you know the reason why me and some others kept repeating: don't rush and force things. This is what tends to happen when you do.

People who don't know it will be jealous. And, though their comments will be bothersome, if you are nice, you won't wish them this invasive "disturbance".

Good news is: it doesn't last. Usually is over after a week or shorter if you let it happen. Then you usually feel unable to restart your prowesses. Don't be frustrated, it is entirely normal and fine. Has you learn to be more aware of your life, you will discover everything affects your state and abilities, even things like moon phases, seasons, environment and more can do it. We are not so different from women, life is made of many cycles (small and big) and we are deeply affected by them... You just didn't realise it before because you numbed yourself too much.

It usually is comforting to know that, even though it is a sign of temporary imbalance, it is normal and not dangerous in itself. If you know a person experiencing it and becoming anxious, simply listening to his story and telling him it's okay and won't last eases things a lot. Too bad few people can tell you that. We asked for it to be included in the wiki... No luck so far. Anyway, now you know.

Keep your progresses slow, so you have time to adapt to the transformation. Unless you fall into addiction and obsessive compulsive use, it is a very good transformation. You just don't want it to happen overnight, from nine month to a couple of years seems alright. And you don't want to develop an habit of overuse. The map is not so hard to find and follow. Use good sense and your intuition and you will be fine and enjoying life like few others do.

Just keep things at levels you are able to handle on every level (including social life). Eventually these levels will vary in time.

Thanks @Canacan. Yeah I wasn't really expecting this to be part of the process. It just comes in waves. This has been the worst day so far. It's just making me feel nauseous. Definitely going to back off for awhile until things settle down some. I can barely look at the computer screen without feeling sick. At first I thought it was kinda cool that I was still getting the bobbing on waves feeling all the time, but it has reached a point that I'm ready for it to stop. Wish I wouldn't have used it last night now.

@orgazmo as @Canacan said could be the the K syndrome. I would say might even be predictable you have it. I'm sure you have read this thread so know what to expect.PS the dizzyness was my main symptom (more of a sort of head rush, sometimes quite pleasant especially when I started laughing uncontrollably, wish I could get that again actually!) settled after a week. What comes after can be even more interesting.

@smudgefish I've never had vertigo before, but I guess that is how I would describe it. Last night when I went to bed I had a couple waves hit me that felt like I was falling through the bed. So far it seems to be better today. Hoping the worst of the symptom is over because I was close to throwing up yesterday. I also noticed some pressure in my forehead last night as well but this could have just been a sinus headache. I don't know what else to attribute the vertigo to but KS because it didn't start until that exact moment the super o began. That would be one hell of a coincidence for me to start getting vertigo right at that moment.

It feels like I'm in a fog today and have pressure on my face. This could be allergy symptoms although they are usually not that severe. I can deal with this though as long as the vertigo and nausea doesn't return for long periods like yesterday.

Well, I think Kundalini syndrome is usually much stronger than that.

Nonetheless, the exact same advice holds true: relax, it is side effects of your journey, be patient, it will get better.

Yeah, thankfully I'm only having minor symptoms compared to the things I have read online. Didn't mean to imply I had full blown KS. This feels more like a warning to back off before things get worse. It feels like the waves are smaller today, and most of I'm feeling physically is around my face and forehead today. I saw your thread got bumped. Hoping to read through your experiences at some point today.

I'm going to try to do some gardening today to get my mind off the symptoms and maybe help with grounding. I'm a complete newbie when it comes to this stuff so I'm kind of learning as I go. I read somewhere working with your hands in soil is used as a grounding technique.

@orgazmoDid I read in a different thread that you recently made other significant changes in your life, e.g. diet and exercise? Finding the source of your symptoms will be difficult when several variables are being juggled at once. It may even stem from a combination of changes.

Don't fuck around with neurological symptoms, though. If it doesn't resolve soon, get medical advice.

@PSLabs Yes, I did change my diet. However, it's nothing extreme and I had just come off a 2 month break from it. Sometimes when I first start it I notice a little less energy and concentration. However, I'm 99% sure my vertigo stems from my experience the other night because that feeling started and lead up to the super o. It was minor until yesterday when it intensified some (session the night before). Today it feels much more manageable and I didn't use the aneros or do any a-less session last night. If it gets worse and becomes unmanageable I'll def be going to the doctor.

I forgot about another sensation I had right before I fell asleep. There was a cold sensation or chill that came over my pelvic area.

I second that.

No reason to be so sure. Everything happening in the body at that time gets thrown in the mix of the experience. It doesn't make the symptom a consequence. Can just as well be a cause.

Yeah I guess that's true. However, I still don't think there is anything physically wrong with me. I think as long as I lay off, what I'm experiencing will continue to get better. I'd be more worried if I felt like I was in tachycardia or my blood pressure sky rockets. Just checked my pulse sitting here and I'm at 72 bpm. Not too bad although it's usually between 60-66 if I check it when I first wake up.

I still don't think there is anything physically wrong with me.You're very likely correct. A physician might diagnose it as "symptom of life."

I don't worry for your health, but I get a little froggy when issues edge into self-diagnosis and treatment. I'm happy to know you'll keep the medical option open.

My general rule of thumb is anything that doesn't go away or is getting worse after a few days then prob deserves to be looked at by a doctor. I'm actually feeling quite well right now so I think yesterday was just a hiccup on my path.

If I did have to go to a doctor, I would have no idea how to explain how I got to this point without seeming "crazy" lol. I read about some people who went to the hospital and they put them on all these psych drugs and that is def something I would not want. I don't want to deaden my emotions, I want to expand them and feel more comfortable with them.

Had another wave of vertigo about an hour after I typed this. Not too bad though. I've been walking barefoot outside trying to ground myself and it seems better. Not sure if I believe it's what helped, but it can't hurt to try new things. 😉

@orgazmo - I have a feeling you are totally correct and doing the right thing.

@JMchemist Thanks for checking up on me! I've "returned to normal" so to speak. I was worried when I saw other people mention two weeks, but it only took one week for me. Of course, I now can turn the pleasure on and off at will, a-less. My days are no longer about dampening the pleasure and instead about resisting the temptation to turn it on, especially when I'm bored at work haha. That said, it's still an effort to wind down after an hour or so of superOs, so I stick with times away from sleep and when I don't have anything to do.

Interestingly enough, I've figured out how to move the "orgasms" to different parts of my body, and each is its own experience. I just finished a session with orgasms in my back, heart, and forehead. I think my back is my favorite because I end up very relaxed afterwards and there's not a lot of lingering "buzz" like in my prostate or my head.

@orgazmo Sorry to hear about your vertigo. That's not a problem I had, but it goes to show how everyone is so different! My guess would be every body has their own shit to work through that manifests itself in different ways. Good luck!

@ontherocks
Apart from PSAS, I haven't heard of people getting it longer than a week. Was even shorter for me.

This experience and warning served you good. You are learning great. Congrats!

Lower back and heart are my favourite too.

Moving the energy around is the most fun part. Well, same thing with a loving partner is even better. I don't want to spoil you the discoveries, though.

Having another bad wave of vertigo that has made me lie down. When I close my eyes I'm seeing a lot of activity. Weird stuff. At least it has been less frequent today. This is the 2nd wave today and yesterday it seemed like it lasted most of the day. Weird thing is I feel like I could lapse into a super o and am having to resist it because I'm scared it may make things worse.

@ontherocks Thanks and as much as having uncontrollable super o's sounded awesome at first, I'm feeling your pain now minus the super o's. Vertigo is a terrible feeling and I've only had motion sickness once in my life from extreme sea conditions. I may get off my diet temporarily and eat heavy foods to see if that lessens things. Just ready for this to be fun again. Feels like I'm on a rollercoaster right now.

@orgazmo
Just try to listen to your body. If you need a special diet right now, you should have an hunger for it. Whatever way, don't forget to drink a good amount of water.

I've been trying to drink things to help my queasiness like ginger ale and lemonade. Urine is pretty clear so I think I'm hydrated sufficiently. I think this last wave is on the downswing hopefully. Getting ready to eat dinner so I'm going to load up this meal and maybe have something heavy before going to bed. I've been craving some queso and chips 🙂 May go outside and walk around barefoot again too. This last wave hit me too fast and immediately made me feel sick.

Moving orgasms around sounds like fun 🙂 Do you think having some traditional o's would help or hurt what I'm experiencing? Also I assume it wouldn't be wise to let myself go into super o's? While laying down I def felt like I could have easily.

@Canacan Thanks for the moral support!

@orgazmo Heavy foods helped me out, but you know your body best and I'm sure you'll figure out what works for you.

I made a couple of rules for myself when my problem week happened, namely: 1) The real non-orgasmic world always takes priority, and 2) Don't have any superO sessions unless I'm feeling good and healthy. It's working out so far!
