I have to admit, I was a bit anxious, no, I was actually frightened, about asking this question for Joan. If the answer had been different, it would have been difficult to post, but negligent and cowardly not to. Thankfully, the answer was positive and uplifting, shining the way for a young man who is meant to contribute much to a world in pain.
Joan’s Question
Elisa,
Thank you for sharing Erik with us. I have an important question for Erik, when you can take it. Please tell me as soon as you can. It’s about my own son who is alive but struggling with depression. I don’t know how to help him. I am very worried. Thank you.
My Response
Hi Joan,
I’m sorry your son is struggling. Can you tell me his first name, where he lives, his age and your age? I’ll try to help but it might take some time. You can also talk to Kim/Erik directly through a phone session. I have her link on the home page. Felix Lee Lerma is also very good. Be careful because a lot of mediums, most in fact, are horrible charlatans.

Joan’s Response
Hi Elisa,
Thank you for your help. My son is Sean, and he is 17 (almost 18). We live in *****. I am 49 years old. When I started reading your blog, I could not stop crying because there are many similarities between Sean and Erik. Sean changed so much at around 12 years old. He became depressed. He has told me that he feels no joy inside. He does not know why he feels this way. He has taken different meds but it seems like nothing has ever helped. Deep down inside, I have a very strong fear that someday Sean will commit suicide. I feel as if I just know it will happen and cannot stop it. Sean feels lost about his life. He is not sure what direction to go in. I have strong faith in God and pray all the time for help for Sean. I read in your blog that someone asked Erik for guidance for another person. Is it possible that he can help me? I will do anything on earth to help my son and keep him safe, but I do not know where else to turn. I feel for you so deeply and thank you so much for sharing. I have always believed that this life is not the end. Erik’s messages conform that.
Thank you very much.

Channeling Transcript
Me: Joan’s questions are next, Erik. This is about her son, Sean, who is almost 18. Joan is 49 and both live in *****. She’s in sort of the same position I was in for the two years or so preceding your death: very, very concerned about Sean’s depression. She’s afraid that one day, he’ll take his life.
Erik: What Joan is picking up on as far as the suicide goes are all from past lifetimes when he did do it. Suicide is such a traumatic event, that you remember it from lifetime to lifetime. So that’s what Joan is remembering. It is intuitive, but it’s from the past. In this lifetime, Sean is going through what I’m hearing is pretty typical teenage angst, but Sean is totally a bottom-line guy. He wants to know where he’s headed, what he’s going to do, and, well some people are in their forties and fifties and think, “I wonder what I’m going to be when I grow up.” They think, “Oh, well, I’ll figure it out.” But Sean, he’s already just biting his nails trying to figure out what he’s there to do, because he wants to get on with it!
Me: So what is he here to do?
Erik: What Sean is there to do in this lifetime is help people who were like him in the past—people who are suicidal or really, really depressed, anxious, troubled, challenged, feeling hopeless. This is to help him with his karma from past suicides. It’ll help him learn what this kind of loss means for others and will get him to realize how important it is for a soul to stick with the plan or destiny for that lifetime. So, he’s supposed to become a psychiatrist or therapist or something like that, someone who will treat children and adolescents to help guide them into a healthier quality of life. That’s what he’s there to do. Now, Joan is going to ask what she can do to help or, uh, facilitate, because she’s biting her nails trying to figure out what she can do.
Me: Sure, of course!
Erik: Now, it’s very unlikely that he’ll commit suicide, very, very unlikely. For example, Sean’s guardian angels want Joan to know this: You know he’s been depressed for a very long time, and if he was going to, he would have done it by now! He’s not going to. So, that’s kind of an alarming confirmation from them, but they’re being very blunt and frank. Here’s what Joan might wanna do: She might just sit down with him and say, “Honey, you’re here to help so many other people; why don’t you become a psychiatrist and you could write books, work with groups, work with kids and teenagers one on one”— Sean is really, really good with kids. Kids love him. So that’s what Joan can do, and she’s right; she is supposed to do something. That’s what it is.
Me: Okay, thanks Erik. Now the next—
Erik: Can I say one more thing?
Me: Sure!
Erik: Joan is completely right that Sean doesn’t always listen to her. I know you didn’t mention that, but her guides are telling me this. That is correct.
(Erik and Sean’s guardian angels are chuckling.)
Kim: Maybe that’s true for a lot of us!
Me: Oh, yeah!
Joan’s Response
Hi Elisa,
I just returned from vacation and read this. I am thrilled by it!!! Thank you so much! but of course, I have so many more questions. I am relieved that it seems he will not take his own life. And what Eric said about Sean is spot on — he wants to know what to study or do with his life an he wants to know it now! He is not satisfied with finding his way in time. He has this sense of urgency about what field to study, and is almost in despair and paralyzed by not knowing. How can I ever thank you for asking Eric for me? Words seem inadequate. I appreciate it so much. I am wondering also — how/when/where will I get to read the actual transcript? Do you post it on your blog or will you send it to me? Also, do you use actual names on the blog?
I am seriously thinking I should try to have a session for myself too. I am really struggling lately and am very unhappy at work. I am constantly feeling insecure, lack of confidence and a lot of anger inside. I feel like I need to understand why I am this way. It is like a wall that I know I need to get over but somehow I am stuck. I have read on your blog that many people feel set free after a reading. Is that true? I just do not know if I can afford it. But maybe, just maybe I should do it. I also have a strong sense inside that Sean and I are emotionally tied together somehow. Any advice you can give is much appreciated. You are a wonderful person. Don’t let anyone make you feel otherwise.

Joan’s Response (after reading the official transcript)
Dear Elisa,
I just read the posting. I cannot thank you and Erik enough for this information. I brings me so much peace that I cannot describe. What was said is so true about him. It is hard to believe. Now I want to know more and more. I think I will contact either Kim or Jeanne. Do you think one is better than the other, putting aside the price? Thank you Elisa. God bless you.
I do want to offer a caveat to all readers of the blog. Be sure you listen to your heart first. If you or a loved one is struggling with mental illness, seek advice from a healthcare professional. Please know that I write this caveat, because I care about all of you, NOT because I fear any legal consequences.
