Please share a little about yourself by way of introduction. What draws you to Depth Psychology and what are you looking for from this community?

Depth Psychology helps me to understand my life physically, emotionally, and spiritually-allowing me to work on focusing my energy and time in a more meaningful and positive way. My personality is and has always been outgoing and friendly, easily forgiving of others wrongdoings toward me, and always giving without expectations of return. I've experienced ongoing traumas and negative energies that started as a toddler and made it through each event with hope, by believing my existence served a purpose and the loving, forgiving heart I possess today is a result of such tribulations. I'm the first person to offer help to another yet the last to ask for help. This was the wrong attitude in my life and it's hitting me now as I'm going through a difficult time, emotionally and physically, causing me to question my purpose or future. I hope to reach out to others who can help me help myself, so I'm able to live a life to be of service to others. Maybe by sharing my life story, I can help others, giving them hope and promise. Before I found this organization online today, I was starting to lose hope, that maybe my unconscious thoughts and beliefs through my entire life were actually undiagnosed insanity or other mental disorder. I recently had a series of events happen to me that have caused an awakening experience and all I've done for the last six months is try to understand why it's happening to me, mixed with emotions of excitement and share them with friends and family who look as if I were crazy. Resulting to living in solitude as I try to make sense of it all, I've reflected on my past and a lot of emotions have surfaced and I know I need professional help to get back on a positive path but it's hard to find someone who will actual listen to me without trying to offer psychiatric drugs or make me change the way I believe. Before finding this organization online today, I had no idea that others believed as I do, that cosmic and nature play a significant role in our lives and help us to understand our existence. Through this group, I'm hopeful that I will find professional and unprofessional help.
