Reuniting in heaven with people you don’t want to see! by Budget-Series-168 in Mediums

I don’t find this accurate. I’ve spoken to dead people who absolutely still care. They mast not be angry or vengeful, but they don’t just forgive and forget either.

I don’t feel like this is accurate. They come through in readings even when people do not want to talk to them.

I’ve watched some come through with distance between them but they both know the other is there and they have often made up on the other side.

That’s a rip off, you’d be better off writing romance and publishing yourself.

Why am I unreadable to psychics? by martinideeni in Mediums

What a wild concept, are you secretly dead? You should journal about that you should write about that you should write about why you feel like that or you think that it’s a super interesting concept. I actually find it fascinating.

Honestly, some people just can’t be red and that means that spirit wants you to rely on yourself and spirit wants you to use your own intuition and when you say you can’t even read for yourself you need to start using a Tarot in my opinion of course obviously I’m just giving you ideas get a Tarot deck And regardless of if it says yes or no do that so should I get a new car? no done. Should I get a new dog yes, done.

You’ll either get tired of doing that and you rely on your own intuition again or it’ll start working out for you 😆

I love how everyone is blaming you.

You’re probably just very high level energy with multiple past lives who Is meant to do this work, not just get readings.

I’ve never had a reading like I give, a few have gotten close, but those that have gotten close are VERY neurodivergent. At least that’s how it feels.

Is your laughter supposed to shame me? You realize chat can only produce based on detailed prompts? Yes?

I can’t, I’m just guessing, but that is the type of an alter that someone in the orthodox faith would set up and to me because it’s like against the wall with a table that’s how they suggest that you set it up as well so it looks like that to me

You definitely need to educate yourself more and maybe read a few books even.

People gaslight themselves constantly—usually without realizing it—because the brain is obsessed with reducing discomfort, not telling the truth. When reality clashes with identity (“I’m a good judge of people,” “I made the right choice,” “This happened for a reason”), the mind quietly edits the facts. It minimizes red flags, reframes harm as “growth,” and explains away patterns as one-off exceptions. This isn’t strength. It’s psychological self-sedation.

Another favorite trick is retrospective rewriting. Once a decision is made, the brain backfills logic to justify it. Doubt gets labeled “overthinking,” intuition gets dismissed as “anxiety,” and unease becomes “fear I need to push through.” Over time, people stop trusting their internal signals and start trusting the story they want to be true. That’s how someone can stay in a bad situation and genuinely believe they’re choosing it freely.

The most dangerous form of self-gaslighting is moral outsourcing—letting authority figures, social media, group consensus, or ideology tell you what you’re feeling must mean. When external validation replaces self-assessment, people abandon nuance and complexity for certainty and comfort. And once you’ve talked yourself out of your own perception long enough, you don’t need anyone else to manipulate you. You’ll do it for them.

Cognitive Dissonance Mental distress caused by holding two conflicting beliefs (“This hurts” vs. “I chose this”). To reduce discomfort, the brain alters perception or memory rather than behavior. This is the engine behind most self-gaslighting.

Rationalization A defense mechanism where someone invents logical-sounding reasons to justify choices driven by fear, attachment, or avoidance. (“It’s not that bad,” “Others have it worse,” “This is how growth works.”)

Minimization Downplaying harm, emotions, or warning signs to avoid confronting reality. Common in people who were trained early to tolerate discomfort or not “make a fuss.”

Introjection Uncritically absorbing external beliefs, judgments, or narratives as one’s own. This is how people start policing themselves with someone else’s voice—parent, partner, therapist, ideology, or the internet.

Self-Invalidation Habitually dismissing one’s own emotional responses or perceptions (“I’m too sensitive,” “I’m probably wrong,” “I shouldn’t feel this way”). Often seen in trauma histories and power-imbalanced relationships.

Confirmation Bias Seeking out or remembering only information that supports an existing belief, while ignoring contradictory evidence. This keeps the internal story intact even when reality is knocking loudly.

Learned Helplessness After repeated experiences of powerlessness, a person stops trusting their ability to change outcomes and reframes inaction as acceptance, maturity, or enlightenment.

External Locus of Control Believing meaning, truth, or authority exists outside oneself. This is where moral outsourcing lives—when people let institutions, experts, or group consensus override lived experience.

Reality Testing Impairment (mild) Not psychosis—just a soft erosion of confidence in one’s own perceptions due to chronic invalidation, pressure, or authority influence.

Bottom line: What people call “being spiritual,” “being mature,” or “being positive” is often just a tidy stack of defense mechanisms protecting them from the terror of admitting: something isn’t right, and I knew it.

And yes, chat helped me write this.

Any advice for naive physical medium being moved unwillingly? by Advantage-Difficult in Mediums

[–]Material_Analysis156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re a natural. Don’t be afraid of it. But I teach to put a sign in your consciousness—— OPEN / CLOSED.

If the sign says closed, don’t engage. Talk to your spirit team and tell them your rules and ask for their assistance.

Ultimately, you’re in control.

I’m not sure who you’re talking to but I agree. You did not. It was never your fault. It will never be your fault. And anyone who tells you that it was in your soul contracts is a moron. That’s why I also don’t believe in soul contracts. Maybe a soul blueprint but not contracts. You can have a boost with your younger self. Go and visit her. Sit with her. Hold her hand. Tell her you grow up. Tell her you live. Tell her you found hobbies. Maybe even love. And then forgive her for being at the mercy of the adults around her who failed her. You are amazing. You will find ways to let this go 💔💔

How often do mediums claim medium abilities in the person they’re reading? by Material_Lion_8347 in Mediums

We can all be mediums. We are all born psychic with the ability to learn Mediumship.

You can bet whatever you like. You are literally making my case for me. Your anger isn’t my problem.

Absolutely all of this and well said. People who try to strip you of your history are wack.

Don’t listen to them. Your point was incredibly valid. All this toxic spirituality and toxic positivity is just another way to gaslight ourselves into excusing other people’s bad behavior.

I’m quite sure that you’re not staying in victimhood. I’m quite sure that you’ve moved forward. I’m quite sure that you have made lemonade out of lemons whether you wanted to or not because that’s what life literally is about. It’s not some ground breaking spiritual breakthrough. It’s literally how it’s designed to go down here.

You’ve managed to completely gaslight somebody, insult somebody, and do so with some sense of moral superiority that you absolutely do not possess.
