Thanks to everyone for your wonderful support. I have visited other forums, but frequently I notice that no one seems to care, whereas here...everyone does.

so much love

I'm so sorry about the sexual attack. I know what you mean about feeling souless afterwards. But I agree with Venus, you are not a soulless person. Maybe your soul is hiding, because it is hurting. With good help it will come back.

I'm glad that you are being supported and loved here. I'm praying for you, and I'm sure others are keeping you in their thoughts and good wishes too. Stay safe, and warm, and keep talking to us, if it helps you.

(((hugs)))

In our culture we are unaware of what is out of spiritual harmony that is creating illness. And because often our soul loss happened so young we are unaware of the unconscious patterns we are living out due to our first soul loss. We are always trying to retrieve our soul. And how we do this is by repeating the same trauma over and over again. The names might change of the people involved in our life story, but the story is often the same.

The effects of having a soul retrieval vary person to person. Some people feel that they are more grounded in their body and feel more solid. Some people feel lighter and a joyful way of being returns to them. For some memories of the past traumas might be triggered bringing up a variety of feelings that must be worked through. And for some people the effects are too subtle to notice a change until further work to integrate the soul is done.

As people feel more present in their bodies and in the world they become more conscious of behavior that might be out of balance and disharmonious. When we are numb we might be aware that things in the world are not right but we can easily distract ourselves from feeling a need to change. When we are fully “inspirited” there is no place to retreat to and we are more inspired to change our lives.

I believe that once a person has his or her soul brought back the client now has to do some work. If the person has done a lot of personal work the soul retrieval might be the end of the work. If not the soul retrieval would be the beginning of the work.

Now it is up to the client to look at how to create a healthy life style and attract healthy relationships that will support wholeness and a life filled with healing. How do we want to use the energy that was returned from the soul retrieval and our returned vitality to create a positive present and future for ourselves? And how do we bring passion and meaning back into our lives again so that we thrive instead of just survive? All these issues I call “life after healing” and are crucial to create long term healing after a soul retrieval.

I agree with what Venus and others have said, pennywhistle. I think these pieces do come back once they feel it's safe to do so. Working through our feelings about any trauma we experienced, feeling safe, feeling accepted, all of these things help those pieces of us to feel that it is safe to come back. It takes time though and during that phase it's important to be gentle on ourselves and surround ourselves with caring, gentle people. it can help to learn how to be compassionate to ourselves and to learn where and how to forgive ourselves for anything we believe we may have done wrong.

Hello Pennywhistle,
I came across the following in my wanderings tonight and thought it contained some good, down-to-earth suggestions that might be helpful for you: Dealing With the Effects of Trauma

Hey Pennywhistle,

I know how the voices are, and how they rant and rave about the attack. I know how they make things different, and how hard it is when people don't believe you. I know all this, but I don't know the real way out. Except I have found someone. He is a therapist...but I don't think he is one of THEM. I think he might be able to get the bad stuff out. I hope you can find someone like that. Also, the pills you have might not really have wax in them. Do you trust your doctor, or do you need a different one? Do you trust your pharmacy, or maybe you need another one of them as well. The pills seem really bad, but they help with the wax and the shadows after a little while, you just have to give them some time. You're going to be ok pennywhistle. You are not dark, you are not a shadow person, you won't hurt anyone.

Hi "D",

It takes time. Be gentle with yourself. If nothing continues to change, call the doctor and ask for more help. Keep in touch.

I know exactly what you mean. A person never feels so alone as when they reach out to others, and the others insist that a good dose of "Get over it" will somehow magically fix everything. People here definitely understand this not to be the case, and it's helpful beyond words.

You are strong, and I believe you can overcome the empty. Whatever may come, know that you are not alone.

((((pennywhistle))) - I'm so sorry you suffered this terrible attack, but I agree with VenusHalley - your soul is still there. It's might be bruised, but it's there. You're right, this forum is full to the brim with caring, wonderful people and I'm happy you found PC. Thank you for this nice post.

I agree with the others. I used to believe my meds were poisoned or tainted with things to control me and make me do what the police say. but then i kept taking them and I got better. I hope you find pills that don't have those terrible side effects and you stick to them because they are the key to feeling good again. I have been where you are numerous times... and I understand the fear you are experiencing. Shadows can be very frightening, I experience them too. Just don't give up and talk to your doctor openly. Loves and hugs... I am praying for you..
