Im not in the best place yet to give advice but i can say i know in my case, yes definite trauma, sexual. Vague memory. I still need to go down and feel it all. 2 years ago when i went to a spiritual class and meditated at home regularly, (i opened self up) i did see a couple ghosts i thought. One time, a vivid, dark figure, man, was laying ‘in’ me the way i lay down, i seemed to get him out. I felt i pushed the neg energy out completely over a couple hours. He stood at foot of bed, I was like hey, go to heaven or whatever.. leave... it vanished and the next day a felt light and great..
I also have a great imagination and have had a couple ‘breaks in reality’ in the past, moreso i have dissociated and thats something that explains a lot. So this ghost experience and meditation is not pursued in this way anymore.
It’s trippy and interesting, (the mind) , but I now link somatic sensations and things internal physically and emotionally which are trauma related and science related. i am curious and learning about fear and hallucinations and dissociation... and ghosts, which honestly i kinda dont discount completely... but things are making more sense to me when im in myself trying to be Present. (Sorry, emphasizing with caps).
When i heal more and gain clarity on self w therapist maybe i will revisit some of this, but for now this is what ive got for this topic :)
