Shannon's Journal Discussion

There are multiple possible reasonable explanations for this. One is that something it is working on at a very deep level is causing you emotional upset that is being kept deep and unconscious, and that you are responding with stomach issues. That seems possible, but very unlikely to me, since the program is designed the way it is.

The other major thing I can think of is that you're suffering some form of food poisoning. I have had it happen where I did exactly the same thing, and the cause was that I had eaten something that was going bad.

Don't jump to conclusions about what is causing what. Correlation does not equal causation.

I appreciate your response. I am inclined to think E 2 is working on deep emotional issues, since I've grown up as a very emotional person and there's plenty of charged memories locked away that I'll likely be dealing with soon. I am also hoping / thinking that the stomach stuff was a cleansing in and of itself. I had to make things fun since I was going to the bathroom so much, so I've been pretending to perform an exorcism on my bowels. It made my nieces laugh, anyway lol

The food poisoning thing sounds completely reasonable, but I don't understand why no one else in my family was affected. We're talking about 10+ people eating the same food. Just seems strange to me, because I'm one of the few in my family who can eat pretty much anything and be unaffected. Very curious, I'll just leave it at that.

Last time I had food poisoning, I had food from the very same bowls and plates that my friend did. I spent a couple days in the bathroom. She had not even the slightest inkling of symptoms.

This is possible because food poisoning only needs one single bacterium to be present, and take hold in your intestines. If only one piece of lettuce, for example, had been washed poorly, and had one single E Coli bacterium on it, and that one single bacterium was able to survive and multiply, you would get food poisoning from eating the same food from the same bows and plates everyone else ate from. So really, that doesn't rule out anything. And again, based on the way E2 is designed, that seems very unlikely.
