I don't have any advice about the silence issue as I don't have much experience with that.
What caught my attention was this last paragraph. Many years ago, I had a T basically tell me the same thing. He said he had a vision of me hanging over the edge of a dark pit where I couldn't see the bottom. He had the feeling that whatever was at the bottom of the pit was pretty awful, but he felt like if I let go to drop it wouldn't be a very long drop.
He was right. I finally let go and dropped into the yuck, and it didn't take long to get there. The yuck wasn't fun, but ultimately it was healing to let go of the edge.
