In reply to No-one.

Society is the bad breast. The good breast is green. The good breast is nature.

But you don’t understand – the poetic utterance and the cheetah are God. They are the force of the Mother through the form of the Father, and it explodes into infinite colour. You are the force of the Mother and the form of the Father. You are feeling and mind. Mind is sky is God. Body is Mother is God. They are the form and force which though different, can never be apart, and everything is that. It’s the bow and arrow. It’s the vessel and the space within. You are that space and that vessel. You are God and Mother Earth. This is a fact. The other stuff, energy, is the movement their estrangement creates. This is the secret of male and female, good and evil, Mother and Father. They estrange themselves from themselves in order to create the passion of existence, and it’s so obvious to any sea slug, river or galaxy or planet or snail. Even your own consciousness knows, but it’s patient and allows the brain to learn at it’s own glacially slow pace.

I’m sorry your son got caught up in psychiatry’s iatrogenic bipolar epidemic. Sadly, I did too – same etiology, too … misdiagnosis of the adverse and withdrawal symptoms of an antidepressant as “bipolar” … followed up with a whole bunch of anticholinergic toxidrome poisonings.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxidrome

Then, if you’re lucky enough to get (even slowly) weaned off the psych drugs, you can end up dealing with a drug withdrawal induced super sensitivity mania and or manic/psychosis – which, of course, gets misdiagnosed as “a return of your illness.”

There are lots of us here who have dealt with this type of “complex iatrogenesis.” And I’m guessing your son’s healing journey will look a lot the same.

“He must fashion his own story with its own expansive narrative mosaic of chaos and beauty. He must become his own historian.”

“There’s no inciting incident, there’s no protagonist, no identifiable conflict, and certainly no resolution.”

I agree, your son must be the “protagonist” in his own healing journey story. I did, and do still need to be in my life’s story, too. Unless, I find an actual writer who’d like to write my story, since I’m not a writer, and am also a woman who was taught by my society to be modest, so writing one’s self as one of the “heroes,” in their own healing journey, is difficult for me.

In my story the “inciting incident” was distress caused by 9.11.2001. The “identifiable conflict” was with a did-not-know-me pastor, who unjustly denied my innocent child a baptism on the morning of 9.11.2001.

And the “resolution” / “elixir,” aside from being weaned off the drugs, was to also finally be handed over medical evidence that the pastor’s best friend was a pedophile, and my PCP’s husband was the “attending physician” at the “bad fix” on a broken bone – everyone’s motives were then made clear.

Mine is a story that begins with “Oh what a tangled web we weave/When first we practice to deceive,” followed by lots of research on the World Wide Web, and it ends with “the truth shall make you free.”

Please do know your son can heal, but it will not likely be an easy journey. And God bless your entire family, for helping your son during his healing journey. Support from friends and family was invaluable for me, when I was going through the living hell of psychiatry’s iatrogenic “bipolar” epidemic … and my subsequent healing journey. I’ll say a prayer for your son.

The force of pain and emotion demands expression in form, and if you put it in the form of poetry, the force of this pain/emotion is conveyed mimetically to the brain, because notice this one crucial thing. When you are afraid, the force of the fear expresses itself into the form of imagination, which then displays and conveys the fear to the brain and via the brain, the whole body, by way of an animation. The form of the imaginative animation clearly comes from memory, and the force behind the animation is clearly from the feeling of fear. Same too if you are lustful, the form of imagination conveys the force of the feeling, and the animation displays the desire to the brain. Now, PTSD – traumatic complexes – and psychosis are no different, and neither are the non-ordinary experiences associated with the new rage which is psychadelic therapy. These non-ordinary animations draw for their form on our memory, but the force or energy behind it is feeling, or emotion, or traumatised life energies, or spirit: these are so many words for a phenomena that YOU ARE and therefore don’t need to put into words. You can look within. The reason why psychadelic therapy works is because they convey the content of pain to the brain, and what we call psychosis and PTSD is this same natural healing mechanism being attempted but because we don’t understand the phenomena and have only socially conditioned opinions, theories, assumptions and other non-facts about them, we run away from or frustrate these attempts at healing and therefore never healed. I healed my ‘psychosis’ and ‘PTSD’, and indeed trauma and depression more generally, because society abandoned me and therefore left me to my own nature. It is nature that heals and society that destroys, so in abandoning me, it set me free.
