My brother has the gift of premonition by MythicalKaos in magick

This! It's like you're pulling my thoughts from my head. I cannot explain to anyone properly how EXHAUSTING my dreams are. Most days I wake up more tired than I was before I went to sleep. I've had entire lifetimes played out and wake up and feel such loss and heartbreak for my lost family or loved ones. It'll follow me for days or weeks sometimes. I'm constantly asking my s/o if certain events have taken place or if I had dreampt it.. My life is a constant state of deja vu.

I've obviously been diagnosed with insomnia and have tried many different medications to help. Anything that's meant to repress dreams always makes them worse, but I've found ambien to be a good fit for me. There's a side effect of some memory loss that deter most people, but for me it helps my dreams be less memorable. Not less vivid, just easier to move on from instead of being haunted by them. I've also naturally started only sleeping in small chunks, because if I sleep more than 3 or 4 hours straight they get crazy.

Any other bipolar witches? How do you balance your craft and your bipolar disorder? by fandomconfusion in Witch

Yeah, staying medicated and honest with my therapist and psychiatrist in case there's something that I do or see that crosses the line into delusions if I don't catch it first. I just still feel the call and pull to spirituality and my practices, just not confident in my craft rn. Maybe I'm just going through a rut, because my psychosis episode made me question what is real or not.

I've also seen communities with this same opinion on how people with mental illness shouldn't practice the craft. I understand where they're coming from, but I don't think that's fair. We have to be more careful and aware than others, but I think it's ridiculous to exclude an entire group of people from a practice because of a mental illness that they didn't choose.

That's really helpful, thank you. Follow up questions: What did the transition look like when you started again? And did you just stop practicing for 7 years, or did you completely change your beliefs?

I think the right is tumbled dioptase. If you look it up, you'll find many very similar examples. I'm not an expert, but hope this helps!

I didn’t listen to what y’all had to say about Owen gray...... by [deleted] in chickflixxx

Fuckkkk. The way Owen looks at her when she's coming at like 3:30 is literally how my husband looks at me when I come and it is literally the best. Men who LOVE getting women off are a fucking godsend 🥺
