A woman asks about her daughter: “She is struggling with severe OCD, social anxiety, depression, and some suicidal ideation. She is bright, funny, and extremely talented in her work. But intrusive negative thoughts and many rituals have now overwhelmed her life. We have a team of experts working with her and I’m sure they will eventually help her in her recovery, but I do wonder if there is more to it. In other words, some negative karmic influences impacting her that need to be cleared so that she can heal and be repaired for years to come.” How can we help her?

Her problems are due to a confluence of multiple issues, including both negative spirit attachments who are perturbing her thoughts and feelings as well as the workings of past karmic trauma that is rumbling within and not consciously perceived but taking a toll on the body through stress. And this is impinging on the mind and thoughts as well, because the karma is involved with emotional experiences. And these are being reviewed, replayed by the deep subconscious, and are weighing on that inner part of the mind that is quite powerful and actually runs the emotions, and it can trigger an intense inner desire to stay focused on something that is seized upon as a kind of touchstone. And this gives rise to obsessive behaviors and ritual that is an attempt to control something in seeing an association with the ritual as providing an answer of some kind that is needed to keep something in check, when this is really a kind of illusion because what is needed is something that is out of conscious awareness entirely. So the person is substituting a thought pattern as a coping mechanism to answer the inner emotion bubbling up but it is a coping mechanism only and not a solution and will not be adequate to the task, and then becomes a kind of burden of its own that can provide a distraction up to a point but not a meaningful solution to the problem. This will cause problems of its own and become quite a burden oftentimes, and can even derail a person functionally when it becomes severe, intrusive, and uncontrollable. So we would suggest work with the Lightworker Healing Protocol and then a follow-up with deep subconscious channeling and trauma resolution to work on the symptoms of greatest concern, and to start chipping away at what is needed. Anything you do along those lines will be helpful and will address at least a part of the problem, and very worth doing if it can be supported by the family.
