Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8

[Shannon]

Any way I can help I’m here. Something happened when we started having the FRM. I got the logic in the end intellectually but something at the root couldn’t accept it. Then things were either just overwhelming or just not getting there. I have a good feeling about the self development sub. Just hope it’s not too late for me.

I'm in a similar situation. Although for me it was after OFv3. Since then, I've always felt overwhelmed by every sub I’ve used (which is all the healing titles after ofv3), sometimes to the point where I could barely function for months, despite following the instructions. Shannon has always been helpful whenever I've asked for assistance, and his subs have been great momentarily. However, something deep within me seems to refuse to go with it. I always attributed it to deep-seated fears but maybe it also has to do with my personality and/or lack of self acceptance, idk. I just wish I could use these subs more effortlessly.

I am also hoping that self developement can be the thing that change this.

In this case, I very much need you to keep me informed as to what Self Development does and what effects it has.  It does not have fear removal in it, and it is designed to be gentle and still get the job done.  I need to better understand cases like yours so I can find the way to work through that deep refusal.  Thank you for your help in this.
