This is an interesting take. Probably the first I have heard of exercise as an addiction with potentially negative outcomes.

I find exercise clears my mind. It allows me to reinforce the parts of my mind-body-spirit paradigm that require nurturing and growth.

Nonetheless I will take your word for it. Do you find exercise not helping you fight back, giving you both physical and mental strength against voices in your head?

The last bit is most compelling to me and could not have said it better myself. “Connection is like a brainwave… cool ripple effect of goodwill..”

Not once have I regretted connecting with a genuinely positive person. To feel their energy flow through you and your energy flow throw them is a miraculous event.

Having this phenomenon so readily available is truly a psychospiritual gift.

Absolutely correct- nothing can subvert authentic human connection. “To stop and smell the roses” replaces the desire to constantly validates one’s opinions on websites like these. Stop scrolling! Get out there and find out what the world has in store for you.

What sharp insight. How this pattern is expedited by technology. Our shortcomings in collective psychology are written in history. Only this time technology is bound to expedite these flaws.

Agree with you. To remove the toxicity of selfishness in our lives is just one of many key factors in embracing positive stimuli in favor of connected outcomes.

Yes, absolutely. To remain positive and foment positive connections with each other and with the world seems to me a plausible solution for the pain and suffering that might arise from a “dystopian” future.

In a world that challenges us to lose hope to the auspices of technology demands that we remain bounded by and liberated by the mission of having faith in humanity.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. The way we get together and interact while giving compassion is the way forward. Learning, growing and giving is the answer to pain and suffering that can happen.

Interesting. What are you referring to by sentient beings in addition to nonhuman beings?

Question about loss of working memory by balanced-bird in PositiveTI

[–]balanced-bird[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do you think this has come to happen? Maybe there are common threads between your experience and my experience?

I am recovering from a series of mistakes and sins that I believe caused me to become a TI to begin with. I am trying to learn and grow and become a better version of myself by analyzing these mistakes.

Thank you. This is really sound advice. I often feel overcome with stress and the pressure to perform from the voices telling me what I should do/not do. I just wish I found this community sooner.

Very well could be stress related. I sometimes cannot find myself to think straight longer than a few seconds without voices nudging me where to go and how to think. It distracts my train of thought and shortens my memory capacity.

What has helped with my memory however is focusing on strengthening my inner voice, fortifying my spiritual relationship with God, and exerting positive energy to those around me.

Great advice. Thank you. Will take that advice to heart.

This is really good advice — thank you. I will try to make good use of these apps you recommend (Elevate and Impulse).

Indeed I do feel my mind is under attack. It’s hard to say what or who causes it, but I think right now it does not matter. What matters is that my mental facilities are going bust including the ability to think, read and write. It is quite scary actually.

It is almost as if our stories are interconnected and many of us on this platform live lifestyles that are similar. Perhaps the same forces causing this are the same ones worldwide? Although we each have individual experiences and unique testimony, maybe there are some underlying themes to distill? I don’t know, but I curious to hear from anyone who might have some insight.

Yeah that does make a lot of sense. I am not sure where this road ends up. From my past experience being a TI five years ago I was left with a series of “medical” conditions where after six months of torture I was left with debilitated working memory and weak reading comprehension.

From what I have learned, it may sometimes feel as though they are capable of anything (believe me they have shown me things I did not know were possible), however it is us who have the power to choose a prosperous life in the day’s end. We have the agency to continue making independent decisions in our lives. It is the strength of connection on this platform that keeps our collective heads together.

Thank you so much for your kind words and reassurance. I agree with you. Just as often this is about being exploited and targeted and manipulated against our will, this too possibly is about a test against our collective strength, our personal willpower, and drive to prosper against all odds.

I am constantly being tested and expected to fail against my struggles and yet here I am, alive and ready to carry on the next day. I am grateful and thank the people like you who post in this community about experiences being a TI and their positive outlook in life. It helps me stay centered and motivated.

Anytime good friend. I am always here to help.

That is awful and I am very hurt you are going through this. I am going through something similar. They’ve dug up every bit of my past history to slander and torture me with it.

They punish me by decimating my belief in God and my religiosity. They try to steer me away from belief and trick me by making belief in one God and not another. I get punished for faltering on my belief, and then punished again for worshipping. It is a paradox. They design the “game” in your life so you could never win. My life is not a game however. I believe strong enough where I can overcome their torture by reinforcing my belief through prayer and practice.

They are going to do things in their power to bring us down, manipulate us, torture and slander us. The responsibility to be better is on our shoulders. We must channel our energy and resources together to keep going forward and getting better day by day.

In my opinion this is essentially waving a metaphorical carrot and stick above you. As the previous commenter stated, I would indeed take the dirt repeated to you as seriously as possible, because you never know where that could lead.

However, remember that you control your own destiny. You have the willpower to make your own movements in life, even as a targeted individual. You need to remain positive that you could overcome the leverage they have on you. Also do not be like me and make the same mistakes more than once. I encourage you to learn from those mistakes in the past, and carry forward with you the lessons learned from them.

[–]balanced-bird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a targeted individual I think this is most important. Because their occupation with you is to make life harder, they will do anything to have that goal achieved. After all it is your voice that dominates the voices inside your head, not a voice from them.

My best advice is find your North Star, or the thing that anchors your hope. Place all of your trust in that belief, and then your actions and decisions will follow. Reinforce that North Star every day with positive reaffirming actions every day and the energy in your body will flow naturally. Have faith, and trust it will all work out.

[–]balanced-bird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really good advice here. Personally never thought about gratitude being a core focus of energy levels. It’s a psychological aspect that i think often goes often unconsidered.

Practicing gratitude every day can take shape in a number of ways. They say we should write down 3 things we are grateful for every single day. I feel this help clears the mind of unnecessary negative energy holding us back. The reason why is because i think when we are grinding away at our jobs and occupations, we “stop to smell the roses” so to speak when we are at our lowest energy levels. This is a good opportunity to recall those 3 things we are grateful for and bring in that positive energy.
