Saying Goodbye to my friend and forum member

<< < (3/6) > >>

divine wishes:
I doubt any of us will know exactly what happened... and we should be careful not to speculate.

tellmewhy:
From our conversation it had nothing to do with readings, she had some personal things going on. A reader can't make you do anything and she's aware that readers can be wrong .

chrys:
Amen!

We will never know why she chose what she chose, we will never understand the level of pain she was feeling.  Each of us can empathize with the hurt and disappointment that relationships, daily life, rejection, and disappointment creates; but no one knows the level of hurt another may feel and the decision they make to stop the pain.

I can only say we have all been in a really dark place, otherwise not one of us would be here.  I know, for me, the readings created chaos within me and an emotional breaking point...were the readings the sole purpose? No, but they made an already bad situation worse and the highs and lows dangerous. Every one of us has been there, we came here and chatted with each other regarding "bad" readings and would often comfort each other by saying "just throw it out and ignore it",  because we "knew" which readers were never right.

Hanging on to the words of a stranger that in 2 days, 2 weeks, 2 months everything is going to be alright stops the healing process.  At the end of the 2 months when nothing has changed and the fantasy that has been created ceases to exist, we digress to the starting point of the actual event that triggered the calling frenzy in the first place.  On top of the disappointment, anxiety, and frustration from the reading, we are now left to deal with the actual event and figure out how to move forward.  A process many of us have repeated over and over again, and thus another problem to deal  with....addiction.

We will never know if the readings were the reason for her decision, but for sure they did not help her find hope for whatever was causing so much pain.

If you feel you are in too deep and you are paralyzed by fear and hopelessness call this number 1 (800) 273-8255....there is hope.

Fear is the memory of pain.  Addiction is the memory of pleasure.  Freedom is beyond both.  Deepak Chopra

I cannot believe this. This is all very surreal to me. This is a wake up call and i really hope newer members or the ones that are still knee deep on these readings to wake up. This is an addiction and it's very very real. I also remember back in 2012 i was in rough shape... it was then i met most of you here and the nights when it was tough, you guys were here. 2014 i fell back in it again even though the first time around left me in pretty bad shape financially. This forum was a safe haven for me where i could talk about my addiction to readings and get through the heartaches.

These readers sells you a dream. It's not real. Invest in yourself rather than some stranger on the other side of the computer or phone. Please talk to someone if depression is taking over. Although this forum is not as active as before, many of us still comes on to check. We are just a PM away.

Prayers and hopefully, you can finally find your peace.
