I'm certainly not going to bash 12 step programs or any process or method that is beneficial to the person using it. The issue that you are having with 12 step, spending the rest of your life, seems to be built into many organized programs and religions.Beware of the guru that says he is the way, and requires a lifetime investment of interests to the guru.
You can find your path out. You don't need anyone's help, just some information. In fact, a little help can go a long way, and someone's presence can hinder the process of clearing out the mental mass, charge, traumatic memories, or whatever elses you want to refer to the unwanted material as.
There are very few times in my own practice were a second person could help lead me to look at what it is that I need to confront. Normally they would just distract and get in the way, because there is no one who knows what is going on inside you but you. No one can see that, and point out your path.
This web site is extremely good at teaching you how to feel the things you need to feel. Those events that you have buried conveniently out of site, so that you don't access them directly anymore. The stuff that comes up and puts you into a reactive mind movie, such that you don't look at the source but give the attention to the trigger source instead. This simply reinforces the feedback mechanism and makes the charge on the material stronger.
There are 3 more places of information that I recommend, importance in this order. If I had access to only one, it would be number one.
1) www.neilslade.com (an independent supporting report www.neilslade.com/Papers/stimulation.html)
2) www.gocure.com ---- read the biology of emotions, and read it again, many people do not understand the process. If you read the Sedona Method book, you will find that Anger is one of the higher emotions. Even if you think you just have grief, if you can promote that to anger, you can discharge it quicker. The idea is that this process will teach you how to be an oberver. I know of no other process that naturally does that. There is a lot of talk and direction, but you need something that teaches you how to start observing the feelings. Also health.groups.yahoo.com/group/depression-cause-cure/message/1013
3) www.selfhelprecovery.com -- this site has great information and explanations.
I've found that a biofeedback meter helps me to focus, locate, and confront the mental material that I want to discharge. This may not be for everyone. The e-meter or biofeedback meter became so much associated with a certain cult, that its usefullness is overlooked. It also takes time to learn how to use.
That said, I don't think that I would be where I am without one. It took me about 2 1/2 years to find all the information that I use, most of it above. It took about 2 years to get to the point that I'm at, and I'm not finished. There may be no actual end point, but you do learn how to take care of yourself, without a lifetime commitment to meetings.
When I found the RST, Redirecting Self Therapy, my real progress started. I had already been working on brain control at www.neilslade.com .
Brain control, or clicking your amygdala is a very real and powerful process. There are several other sources that back up this information. Brain Resussitation, Ilchi Lee (I think), and The Biology of Transcendence, Joseph Chilton Pearce.
If you persist with this process, you will be litterly blown away. A full brain pop is something to be experienced. The endorphin rush is extreme. My first big blast carried on for months.
All you need is you, the information and a lot of persistence.
I will point out one other site of interest. Don't get bogged down in everything that they talk about. The important part is the free software and the simple process. It teaches you in a simple way how to start looking for what is in your mind. From using it, you will begin to see how one thing in your life/mind connects to another, and to another and so on.
/net-prophet.net/ucp/
If you go to www.idenics.com, the information there may help you see how things connect to one another. So that you learn how to connect everything together that may be connected to your feeling.
I've found that using Mind Maps to process yourself is a great help. They naturally show the connections from whatever labels you may use to serve for your mental material, or a person, place, thing, event, missed opportunity, or opportunity cost (look it up in the dictionary).
Mind Maps are perfect notes to go back and review, and get triggered again, and again, so that you work out all the related paths, connections, and charge on them. I start with a statement of purpose, and/or like a sentence or paragraph of a journal, and then start drawing the Mind Maps. The tears start flowing, and the situations start coming back and connecting.
Use large paper. I use an 18" x 12" pad |
