Have at Ye,
I've never heard of Lacan, but it's been 20 years since undergraduate studies, and I was a psych major. For me personally, reading the original texts of Jung, for example, were a real trial. I never read his stuff in school (seriously), but was re-introduced to him by an AA guy who was fascinated by his works. I read maybe 2 or 3 pages, and I felt like I was behind by a whole mile in a race. A single sentence had so many connections--and possibilities--which made me slow down and attempt to find a single focus. Maybe I was in his later works, as his words and ideas flowed easily, but digesting it took some real work. Also, I think it was hard since when I'm reading about emotionally laden subjects, I try to identify with the author's aim and intention. In psyche reading, it makes it doubly hard trying to BOTH identify and read with some heart distance. Knowing Jung wrote quite a bit, I quit the reading, and also trying to identify. His formulations were all on a different level.
I'm doing some mental adjusting on DMSI now, so I'm trying to be clear. Having done Shannon's subs for some time now, I've let go of some baggage, and old self-made demands for emotional attention to possibilities of healing are not as pressing now as they used to be. I'm proud to admit that really. Other's thoughts of who and how I am don't pressure me so much anymore. Just like in relationships, I'd sometime begin a reading a psyche or self-help book expecting some answer I could use. But this wore me down. My expectations hurt me first and foremost. It made me realize I was just circling the same old problem I'd been circling for decades.
Which is really true. My first experience with subliminals was with a hypnotist who made subliminal recordings of his sessions, and when I realized I felt BETTER after listening for a few weeks, I was astounded. Seeking something more was how I found sub-shop. For learning about healing didn't help, and very rarely has. Seeing my own inner truths without being overrun by fear is.......amazing. I'm still getting this.
I've jumped over the railings a few times using Shannon's subs. The difference between now and 2 years ago when I came here? I'm kinder and nicer to myself for following old patterns. The patterns create enough pain by themselves. I'd apologize to anyone I'd imagined I'd upset, and I was always on hyper-alert for this. In other words, fear ruled my whole thought life. I reacted to fear non-stop, and my life got small. Small seems safe, but the only thing smaller than a small life is death. It's not my time, I'm here, and these subs are still cleaning the shit out. The difference is this is a LIFE. It's my full-time everyday (inexpensive) therapy, and it's definitely enjoyable
Going to go write in my journal now. This stimulated my thinking.
