Depression

I know the title itself is depressing. I will explain why I would like to address this topic and give it extra attention.

It is not only that people around the world are struggling, hanging in a balance, it is also the lack of seriousness around it. People do not believe you, do not want to see it, avoid you if they sense there is something wrong.

People ignoring it, is hard for anybody who is in a depression and needs help. A hand, a hug, small talk, sitting down and giving a listening ear. It means the world and it can really change things for the better.

Of course, it depends on what the person with the depression really wants.

Still, help is needed, and it can be the smallest of things that can help.

I am not a doctor and will never be. We had some rough times in our lives, and we survived. Overcome the hardest of hard times it seems. We are here and we do help.

What I do know is this: depression is not gone when you pass over to the spirit world.

No, it is not, you take all your feelings with you to the other side.

People committing suicide are not done after they die. They still have the same struggle in the spirit world as in their life. If you read this and think:” I am so done with this world and I want to get out,” please find help.

I am telling you this because of our experience with three spirits we helped already. I wrote shortly about that. Now, this weekend we came across somebody new.

We were in the city and had a good day. We drank coffee, ate something, did some shopping, and left for the train station where we can also take the bus home.

Yes, ok, one last coffee and we go. We sat down outside with our coffee and enjoyed the shadow for a bit. It was sunny and hot last weekend.

Suddenly I noticed the emergency exit slowly open and close. Seeing that happening three times in a row with no human intervention or manipulation, there can only be one answer.

‘Is someone there?’

My wife nodded.

‘Remember when we were waiting for the traffic light at the big crossing, those funeral cars that came by a young guy jumped out and walked with us to the station.

‘Is he alright?’

‘Well, he committed suicide a few days ago and I think he is lost.’

The emergency door opened again, this time much further and two girls walked by and took the door.

‘Wow, specially for us?’ one of them said. She looked back and then chatted on with her friend.

The door closed a bit and then opened wide again.

‘Shall we sit closer? Let’s see if we can make contact.

We took a place closer to the door.

It was almost closed again.

Some people by now had taken the door like it was totally normal to take an emergency door. Nobody noticed the door going open en close all the time.

We made contact.

He was shy and afraid.

‘Come with us, we can help but not here. To many people, to crowded. We can talk at our place, but we must take the bus first. Come with us.’

We convinced him to come along.

The bus was very crowded, I do not know where he stayed but when we got home, he was with us.

Now we could really talk. We explained a lot. Tried to make him more comfortable. My wife noticed he was still in a deep depression what probably made him take his own life.

We clearly needed someone else to talk to him, to trust the situation he was in and that he could be helped if he were ready to except the light. At that moment he clearly was not.

He let us know that he could be found at the station where we found him.

Later that evening we contacted our spirit guides and one of them agreed to help my wife talk to the young guy. The spirit guide did not know where to go since she never had been to the station and the young guy was still a stranger to her. My wife agreed to do an out of body experience (O.B.E.) and together they travelled to the station where they found him right at the spot, he said he would be.

He was shocked of course seeing two women standing in front of him. He pointed at my wife.

‘You, I saw you this midday.’

‘Yes, we have met. I would like to introduce my dear friend here. She can explain a lot more about your situation as a spirit and what the options are when you decide that you are ready to except the light.’

I was home, waiting. The above was told by my wife after she came back in her body again.

The young guy will have to deal with his depression first and then get ready. That can take a while.

Days, weeks, months, years, who knows. But since I travel there for my work, I will say hi sometimes to him, not forgetting him, letting him know, he is still welcome.

Depression.

If you are in it, get help, if you know someone who is in a depression, talk. Attention from time to time can make a huge difference. Do not ignore or stay away. Thank you.
