Has anyone actually seen a shadow person? I was in therapy and it appeared that a shadow either left my therapist's body, or was very near him and came towards me. I immediately felt him touching my heart and its scars. I felt as though I was sobbing as he touched my deepest hurts.

The therapist commented, "It looks like you're having a good time." I think he was being sarcastic. I never talked to him about it.

For several weeks, I would awaken with a feeling like a butterfly dancing in my heart. I felt like someone loved me. I was so happy just being.

At first I assumed it was God touching me. Later on, I wondered if it was my therapist thinking about me. A weird thing that happened was that every week, it looked as though we'd dressed in matching outfits.

I never found a satisfactory explanation. When I decided to be completely honest with a psychiatrist, he used this as one of the factors in diagnosing me. The MSW I was also seeing said the Dr. didn't understand spiritual things because he wasn't a born again Christian. We both were, and I'd like to start a thread about that, also.
