Do you feel like you have lived multiple lives?

Organizing and backing up photos.. from the beginning to now. It feels like I've lived many lives. I don't relate to being just one person. My narrative is fractured. Feels like I've been many people.

I think most people feel that way. The degree of change varies, but we all go through our metamorphosis every some odd years. I have a little ‘ self description‘ list that I update every five years. It amuses me to think back on all the hats that I have worn.

@WhateverWorks well said.
Yes, I believe anything is possible. I feel like I lived in the 60s,70s,80s at one point in time.

@Souls maybe you did.

Yes! Definitely. I'm taking you mean in this life.

I saw others mentioned past life regression. I did that. It "felt" real which makes me think it's possible but it could be my subconscious mind playing tricks like a really real dream.

@swirlie in the group some people said they were aliens in past lives which is why I thought it's just out own brain or mind f'in with us. To be fair though the out of body library weirdness should convince me...but then I don't like the idea of it because how we gonna live our lives full if we know there's reincarnation?

Lol i think i've lived many lives

Its one of the reasons why i think im so dangerously understanding. Understanding to a fault.

I need to learn to be understanding yet know to put my foot down cuz something is not okay.

@highkeydykey yeah over empathy is a difficulty with determing boundaries with what's your responsibility and what isn't. Everyone loves other people sharing the burden of their own messes and problems. But when it causes us to experience more stress and suffering, then it's a problem for us.

I feel I have been multiple versions of my “self” however or whoever I am. I’ve changed so much, I look and feel like a stranger in my younger photos
Coppercoil · M
@WaryWitchWandering yes.. exactly.

You're one person with many different experiences in your life. I love memories that photos can bring.
Coppercoil · M
@SW-User they don't make you sad? Most memories make me sad.
SW-User
@Coppercoil Some do, like pictures of me with loved ones who have passed, but I do my best to be grateful for the time I was given with them.
No i just fell like i missed out on my own life being deprived and sheltered and ignorant af
Coppercoil · M
@SStarfish makes sense.. I get it.
SW-User
Yes sometimes I think back on how I was and I don't feel like it was me. It's like it was someone else's story
Coppercoil · M
@SW-User yup.. that's the feeling.

Yep... A bit frustrating not knowing exactly who/where/when/what but maybe it's for the better. To be born again and re-start from scratch... Another opportunity to get it right, to succeed...? Or just to fail again...

It's not something you can feel, as memories don't survive. It's something you just reason to be true. And if someone claims to have appeared twice on the same world you know they're deluded.

All the time time. I tried past life regression once, and saw myself as a male sailor turned pirate.

Not at all
I feel like this must be my first time here, I’d be better at it if I’d been here before. 🤔
Coppercoil · M
@bijouxbroussard you must have been shipped without your manual like I was.. had to learn as we went.
Many.
Even within the last few years.
Coppercoil · M
@V00doo it's kinda unnerving..
@Coppercoil Can be. When I think of how all the possibilities couod have played out, it scares me.

@DDonde those other lives were just practice so you could be able to handle this one.

@swirlie this is where I sometimes think some therapy messed me up - made me feel a victim of life - where as to me we are always incharge of our own selves. Another type of therapy did correct that and it feels so much better to feel that way instead of feel like this victim of bad luck or circumstances.

Like at the moment I feel a cross roads. I feel like there's two different paths I could take regarding career and I want them both. There's so much in life when our eyes are more open.

It's very much helped, this discussion. Thank you. Rather than feeling I may be a little crazy to see this as predestined dream that I can pray and change as I go but still none of it matters because it's mapped out and done already I feel I can connect to that again and be freer. I had a very good day today, which I do believe is due to embrassing this again. For example last night I thought in my head prayed, willed "the neighbours have no problem with me. I didn't say that." And that's what's came back to me. They're ok with me, the dream straightened out to the "reality" of me not actually saying anything.

There's a song "don't worry, don't panic. There's nothing going on but history" and that's basically how it is.

Thank you again for taking time to talk with me.
