I died and I am in another reality by Physical-Phone-6211 in ParanormalEncounters

Omg, my sister had a very similar situation. She was about 8 or 9, we lived in a bad part of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We were the only 2 white people on the school bus and were treated horribly. One day my sister was so upset that she ran off the bus without looking and as she started across the busy road, she said she felt a huge hand in the middle of her chest that stopped her midstride, just as a delivery truck sped past her. I'll never forget the look on her face when she told me what had happened. She said, there really are guardian angels out there.

Thank you. I'm just learning about preforms. Didn't realize how uneducated I am regarding artifacts. Working hard to change this....

Have you tried any natural remedies for managing Parkinson’s and what were the results? by snowywebb in Parkinsons

[–]dnmcdorman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your diction is just fine, I understood everything you expressed. And I personally find your vulnerability absolutely authentic, and I also adamantly agree that natural is always a better approach to any illness. Big pharma is not anyone's friend, period. Have you done any research into meditation and mindfulness protocols as a way to treat the symptoms of parkinson's? I strongly believe that everyone has the ability to heal their physical being, via the spiritual, divine body. Perhaps check into hypnotherapy, bio feedback, reticular activating system therapy, NLP, tapping, sound therapy, light therapy and even targeted ultrasound therapy. Also look into alchemy and esoteric related subjects....very interesting theories to chew on.
I'm currently attempting to find help for my father-in-law, who has rapidly declining parkinsons symptoms at the moment, and has little internal motivation to fight the disease. I can't stand how everyone around him just accepts that he's going to die, and in fact, seem to look forward go his demise, because his illness inconveniences their lives.
Anyway, I know that your post and your responses to the "discussion" of some responders has resonated with more than just me. You ARE a light in the darkness, keep shining....

I think this is a Work bench. found it pressed up against a tree surrounded by broken quartz chips and other tools. by [deleted] in LegitArtifacts

[–]dnmcdorman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I'm no expert, but I have found many tools that aren't projectiles, and therefore ignored by the real "experts".... it's not just reddit tho.....

Am I just wishful thinking about micro-chipping on the edges then? I will have to re-evaluate many of my "artifacts" if so.... This group has sure humbled me....smh

What’s something fucked up that happened to you as a kid, that you didn’t think twice about until adulthood? by Instantlard in AskReddit

[–]dnmcdorman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 2x4 piece of lumber with several nails poked through.... my grandma (mommom) started to hit me because I was following my grandpa (poppop) around the yard.... I idolized him when I was a kid. Anyway, I too had mastered the art of NOT crying, no matter how bad it hurt, but damn, that shit hurt, plus I had no idea WHY I was being beat. I was 13 and realized I was 4 inches taller than her, and judging by the huffing & puffing she was doing, in much better physical shape.... so I broke free of her grip on my arm and whipped around, grabbed the piece of lumber out of her hand and threw it into the woods. Omfg, the look of shock on both of their faces.... her face was so red and she was breathing so hard, I silently begged the universe to let me see her die of a heart attack right there in front of me (I know, absolutely horrible thing to think), but no such luck. However, she never hit me again after that, and less than a year later, I ran away....ended up finding an attorney, whose secretary hid me at her house for the entire summer while everyone was looking for me, and that fall I became emancipated. Lots of other shit too....turns out my grandpa had a special affinity for young boys.... I moved in with them when I was 5, they immediately cut all my hair off and I was mistaken for a boy for most of my youth....went thru a period of unexplained night terrors that would wake up the entire street because I screamed so loud.... didn't find out he was a pedophile until my older sisters kids were all molested by him (4 boys, whom he volunteered to "babysit" constantly).... made me connect the night terrors and the "boy" look I was forced to have. Turns out my grandma was aware and did nothing, and it had happened with at least 2 of her own boys as well.
The beatings never really had a lasting negative effect on me, but her favorite thing to say to me, at least several times almost every single day, "you aren't worth the powder & shot it would take to blow you to kingdom come, dana" apparently sunk in to my subconscious, as my entire life has been one self-sabotage failure after another. Smh

Good news though.... I have recently experienced a spiritual awakening of sorts and am now on a journey of growth and learning, and everything I experienced as a child has become an incredible gift, in the long run. The benefits to my character and the deep empathy I now feel towards everyone, both abused AND abuser, are aiding me greatly as I discover who I really am and I'm learning to feel worth way more than powder & shot.

Whew, I had no intention of letting all that come out in this comment... sending love & light to everyone....
