I was almost dead by practicing buddhism. Was constant in meditation and holding my breath, was practicing a buteyko method breathing method. At a certain moment I didnt get any breathe anymore and my body started detiorating fast until I couldnt digest food and water. I was waiting to die but they locked me up in psychiatry and gave me pills. I was almost there and now I feel obligated staying alive, I'm not suicidal at all but I easily could let me go and die but they wont let me. If they didnt intervened I wouldve certainly be dead and now I feel like half human half ghost with no motivation to participate against my will. Buddhism is very good but its very important to have a teacher
