Sorry about this, guys. Sigh. Me: What about trauma to self? Why do people inflict harm on themselves sometimes like cutting? What’s behind that, spiritually? Jamie (laughing): He immediately goes to choking oneself while they’re whacking off. Me: Erik! What’s going on with you today, you little perv! Erik: Well, if we’re going to talk…
Asperger’s, Part Two
Jamie (trying to refocus): Asperger’s? The spiritual connection behind it? Me: Yeah. Or is there? Erik: Have you watched the TV show “Touched”? Me: No. Erik: That kind of plays off. Watch the main character. Jamie: Is that the little boy that doesn’t talk, comes up with codes or something? Me: That sounds familiar. I…
Phobias and Aspergers, Part One
My mother is progressing slowly, but with some setbacks here and there. I’ll have to say that this long, arduous process has been hellacious on my family and me. For me in particular, like any stress trigger, it spirals me into that dark “missing Erik” place full of tears. This makes it a struggle to…
Schizophrenia and Much, Much More
Although I expected a short, sweet, simple answer to a short, sweet, simple question, what Erik served up was anything but. Jamie and I were poleaxed. When we got confused, poor Erik got frustrated at times, but he persevered. Instead of getting additional details about the spiritual nature of schizophrenia, we received a much broader…
Dissociative Identity Disorder and More on Bipolar Disease
Because Erik was plagued by a host of “mental illnesses” while here on the earthly plane, he has so much to say about them. Some are not disorders at all, but rather society’s warped perspective of an individuals ability to connect with Source or absorb the energy of others around them. Let’s see what he…
Social Anxiety, Part One
Social anxiety affects so many of us. In fact, Erik was plagued by it when he was here on the earthly plane, particularly with girls. Although he touches on it during this March 12th channeling session, he also goes into greater detail in a session that I’ve yet to transcribe. Me: Now, What can one…
Erik’s First Suicide Attempt
Many of you expressed an interest in knowing more about Erik, including his suicide attempt several months prior to his eventual death. As hard as it is for me to re-visit the experience, perhaps the details will give clarity to the pain from which he suffered. In the wee hours of the morning, Erik came…
Helping Those Who Want Out
Here’s some advice from Erik that comes from a channeling session this past summer: Jamie: You know, your boy and I have been having some talks. Me: Oh really? Tell me, tell me! Jamie: Yeah, I got two emails asking him to hold back on the F#@*#s. And I said ‘I told you! I told…
A Son’s Message to His Mother After Suicide
As many of you know, we had a dime apportment during our family cookout right after Patrick and Gwen were talking about their “coins from Heaven.” Patrick shared that he would find dimes everywhere, even in other countries (which obviously have different currencies!) Through Robert, he found out that his grandfather, Frank, was the culprit…
Erik on Drugs (But Not Really)
This is sure to generate some heated debate! Channeling Transcript Me: Is marijuana bad? Should some or all drugs be legalized? (Pause) Me: This whole thing at the border between the U.S. and Mexico has got me very concerned, so I’m wondering if we decriminalize certain drugs if that would help. When we criminalize things…
Loving Oneself
Good news everyone. Robert was moved to a regular room yesterday and should be discharged Wednesday or Thursday. He’s tired and gaunt but hopefully he’ll let me fatten him up some. And now for the first part of the February 18th channeling session: Channeling Transcript Me: Hey Jamie! Hey Erik! Erik: Mom, you must have…
Bipolar Disease
Thanks to Nancy, here are some fascinating videos about the spiritual side of bipolar disease. Sometimes I wonder how much of mental illness is society’s interpretation of “normal” as well as society’s rejection and disdain. Bipolar Mania or Spiritual Enlightenment? Why Bipolar People Commit Suicide As a surprise Mother’s Day present for myself, I just…
Demonic Possessions
Channeling Transcript Jeannie: How are you? Me: Great, no complaints, except it’s been kind of cold over here! Jeannie: I heard that; I can’t believe it got so cold down there. Me: Yeah, we have a winter storm warning here, so the kids are psyched because they’ll probably get out early today and get off…
The Spiritual Side of Disease
Today, I offer the transcription of the last part of my hour-long session with Erik through Jeannie Barnes. Erik tag teams with the angelic being by his side. Enjoy. Channeling Transcript Me: Okay, let’s get into various diseases. What is the spiritual basis for some of them—and I’ve talked about this with you through Jamie,…
