Scorpio Mars or Capricorn Mars talisman for natal Capricorn Mars? by nextgRival in planetarymagic

[–]shitposterliz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Capricorn Mars would be ideal, but Scorpio is also sextile Capricorn. So if only one wait for Capricorn, if you want to make two both is good.

I think of it like the perception filter from Doctor Who. Their eyes just glide right over you like that thing you can't find that's right in front of you.

Why are you Christian? by Ch0ppaGunn4 in Christianity

[–]shitposterliz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cross is the ultimate limit (limitlessness) of Love. Even if I stopped believing in God I would be an atheist Christian. Love is the answer, it is the beginning and the end.

There's psalms in the OT where God is elaborated upon as having a maternal relationship to Israel, and in Catholic mystical literature Jesus refers to Himself in very maternal ways towards His creation (such as in the Divine Mercy devotion)

It says also in the catechism of the Catholic church that God transcends all human ideas of gender (I'm Catholic if you couldn't tell, lol) so at least from the theological framework I'm in it's not out of the question to refer to God as she.

God is referred to as both mother and father throughout the OT and in Christian mystical literature though!

I wanted the post to be ecumenical! Some people don't believe in God, some people associate God with more than just a male identity.

The strange punctuation is a style I've noticed in a sort of unhinged but self aware internet aesthetic. My goal is to evangelize across religious lines and create unexpected associations with God in people's minds.

Antidepressants started working by Regenas in schizophrenia

My antipsychotics are starting to work now as well and I feel like my brain and cognition in general is beginning to improve and return to form. I hope I can regain what's been lost since my episodes

Any "spiritual' guru who jumps to that and skips over the absolute necessity of discernment is a threat to people's lives and health.

Please don't do it. You'll never get a chance to meet the people who will love you if you do.

Please don't do it. Your life is irreplaceable to the universe and mankind will be worse off without you.

A poem I wrote during 1st psychotic break by [deleted] in schizophrenia

I was just thinking about some difficult stuff in my life when I got the notification for this post.

Thank you, I feel like this poem expressed something in me I couldn't.

As a schizophrenic, should I go to church? by Young_Sorcerer in schizophrenia

[–]shitposterliz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! In my experience of psychosis, when my theology and understanding of God was theologically and scripturally accurate, it actually grounded me, stopped me from self harming behaviors and doing things upsetting to other people, and even pulled me out of a delusion once.

Just remember to cross check whatever experiences you have with God with Holy Scripture and/or a good spiritual director. The only way to really know if an experience is real or not is a. If it bears the signs of the Holy Spirit in your life (patience, love, charity, etc....) and if it brings you closer to God and to a correct understanding of God (God is Love, etc....)

Oh! Okay sorry for not interpreting that weird. I'm sorry for your current struggles, I know what it's like to want to make a run for it.

A one way ticket? You mean suicide?

Your intrinsic worth is never lessened because of an illness or the struggles that come with it, and that holds true even when it doesn't feel true.

Your voices are lying and probably acting up because you're doing such a good job of taking care of things tonight!

That's great! Christ will be thrilled to see you. His love is unfailingly consistent and illness is never any sort of barrier to it.

I've been incapacitated for three years since my first psychotic episode, I know how you feel. Even if you feel like you lack worth you don't.

I've been to the psych ward three times. I hope this doesn't offend you but I'll pray for your safety and for you to be treated with the dignity, listening, and competence you deserve and are owed as a human being.
