When I was a ripe 22, I had a psychotic break, during the episode a state trooper was delivering me to a mental institution. Twice on the drive my manic-psychotic mind became completely relaxed, thoughtless, it was as if my mind and my being completely and evenly dissolved throughout the universe, I was truly not there or anywhere for a brief moment. Both times this happened the state trooper swerved off the road...the second time he stopped to get me some smokes which he had refused to do prior, I felt as if he felt what I felt and realized what I was experiencing was real and after relating to it twice, decided to be kind....after much therapy and medicines disturbing realities from the experience remain. Others I have talked to about psychosis have had different but similar experiences. I would like to hear more.

Re: thought transference
Tue, November 20, 2007 - 8:10 AMas far as i know there are two kinds of this instance one is telepathy, where you send your thoughts to someone (according to some, you broadcast the thought to all, its just that you focus more on a certain person) and vice versa. the other is you tune in to a particular person's wavelength, something like that. according to a book this happens more often than we imagine. it is more evident in people "inlove" or people who hate each other so much they think of each other all the time.

Re: thought transference
Sun, December 2, 2007 - 9:57 AMIf you can imagine that energy, the lifeforce that surrounds and permeates everything, is a pulsating and reactory thing, then in times of heightened emotion our energy levels can rise and effect those who are in close proximity. This can also be why being "the life of the party" is seen as a very positive virtue. And on the flipside, being melancholy rarely wins you friends.
