What a subs` resistance really is?

Long time lurker, first time poster. Greetings all.

Pretty sure I had my first experience with resistance today. Started AM earlier this week. About... six days in. Just a bit of background for context: First few days were awesome. I'm an avid meditator, very in tune with my mental states and the shift in consciousness and attitude were outstanding. I could literally feel mental "tensions" being unleashed, even confronted my two best friends over something that happened last year. I didn't even realize I was holding such animosity towards them over this. I mean, I knew I was mad, but that anger was manifesting in so many ridiculous passive aggressive ways.

Anyway, I've been doing some marathon runs of AM - 12 to 18hr stretches (yes, I know you're supposed to stop at like 12) and while listening in the theater while waiting for The Vatican Tapes to start (don't waste your money), I suddenly had this overwhelming sadness and feeling that the sub wasn't working and this was a complete waste of time. I just wanted to turn it off and go to sleep.

All these negative feelings from the past came rushing -- that I could never make it in life, that this huge life shift I'm preparing to undertake (gonna become an entrepreneur, never wanna work for someone again) could never manifest. Was a real WTF moment because it was so different from the positive results I was having earlier. It took a good hour of meditation after the movie, logically breaking down the fear (me telling myself that I had read about this feeling all over the forum and that it would pass) before the anxiety went away. It's still lingering, but I feel MUCH better now after spending a more hours listening.

I'm expecting to see a shift in personality soon because I'm thinking the sub took me through an insane mental breakthrough.

Hi chaosvrgn. Just remeber about socialization because it`s vital for foster personality`s shift. AM6 has changed my life in many ways and I`m very blissed. I have one and half stage to finish. Keep going, mate. I wish you all the best!

Shannon has even said it is superior because it forces the subconscious to process it.

If you're going to quote me, or credit me for having said something, make sure you understood what I said. In this case... headphones force the brain to experience perfect stereo separation, which causes the stereo-spacial effect to kick in fully. The more completely the brain experiences the stereo-spacial effect, the more completely it must engage both hemispheres of the brain cooperatively to process the script, and the result is about a 125% boost in effectiveness.

But headphones are easy to have problems with (overvolume, undervolume, and the results thereof) if you can't consciously hear the audio. We recommend against headphones with ultrasonics for this reason.

It has been said already that "Resistance is, in general, any situation in which the person experiencing exposure to a subliminal (in this case) tries to prevent the incoming stimulus from influencing them."

This is correct. It happens because of a desire by the subconscious mind to preserve the status quo, whether out of fear or because of some other reason. Usually it is fear of change, growth, the unknown, etc.

Resistance can be expressed in a lot of ways, and usually will be experienced in some way that potentially makes it more difficult to continue using the program, or more desirable to stop using it. Typically, the subconscious is trying to get you to stop using the program because it does not want to change, and in order to do so it may respond with any of a number of challenging, difficult or unpleasant responses that are aimed at making you say, "Well this suck! I'm going to stop this now."

Just a note. I do not believe that resistance is necessary "or you're not growing". I do believe that most people offer resistance because of the speed at which the subliminal is directing you to make changes, and everyone responds differently. Some don't have obvious "resistance" and some do. There is no guarantee that everyone will even experience it.
