When you say its hell.. isn't that a feeling?

Hi Leo, I hope you can touch this topic: Emotions vs Intuition. There are times and situations in my life where I am really confused if it is my intuition trying to speak to me or just my emotion. I can't seem to distinguish them sometimes. Thank you.

Maybe you don't have to choose which way to go yet. I'm from the Philippines too. Why don't you pursue your degree and do the things you love at the same time? It seems to me that your overthinking makes everything complicated. If you are so worried about not having money to support yourself then why not eliminate that problem first? This is just me though. ??

What happens to people who commit suicide?

I'm at a total loss. I don't know what to do anymore. I want to die because it seemed like everything is meaningless. But at the same time I don't want to kill myself or commit suicide. I also don't want to hurt my loved ones. I don't know what to do with me anymore. I think I'm going crazy. I found out through research that I might be suffering from existential depression. Leo, can you talk about it? They say it can't be cured only managed. I want to know your perspective on this topic. Thank you.

I've read 3 of his books; The Power of Now, A New Earth & Stillness Speaks. Why don't you read the book & find it out for yourself.

@John Iverson You're a Filipino right? I'm asking because this is the first time I've encountered a fellow Filipino here in Leo's forum. I am planning to have a meditation retreat as well, in the near future. Please share your experiences when you get back from your retreat.

INFJ-T. It seems accurate.

I have a mild scoliosis and because of this, I always meditate lying down on my back. I cannot meditate in the sitting, cross legged position for long periods as it gets really uncomfortable for me. I uses binaural beats in almost all my meditation because it helps me to concentrate and have focus. One time, I was meditating using binaural beats in my usual lying down position when I suddenly felt this swirling energy in both my hands. I don't know what it is then but when I google it, it shows that what its called is REIKI. Now even when I'm not meditating I can feel this energy in my hands and even manipulate the swirling just by concentrating on my hands. Is this really Reiki or something else? Anyone who has the same experience?

Thank you
