quarantine happenings
I guess this is the right area to post this? Idk y'all, quarantine has really not been good. I'm living with my toxic parents for the next month or so until I find a new apartment but while I'm here it's a struggle. Call me crazy, but I believe in spirits and have lived with them since I was little. I think them and I are both getting restless. As a witch I've never been scared of them, but sometimes the way they interact with me is strange. I was doing my makeup this morning and heard glass breaking but couldn't find a source which usually means the room needs a good cleansing but I haven't had the energy for it in a while. I haven't been able to sleep in my room for a couple months after my guinea pig passed away because the room is too quiet without his nocturnal noises lol. I sometimes communicate with spirit via dreams but I've had nightmares and interrupted sleep since he passed. I'm not even sure how to really explain that to a therapist without sounding crazy for my religious practices you know? Sleep sounds help a bit but it's hard to deal with the lack of sleep and my manipulative abusive mother.
@violetlune I think you can post anything you want in this area (if it's allowed by the general forum guidelines, that is).
None of the therapists I know in real life would think religious practices that involve spirits and witchcraft are crazy. Those practices were well established long before therapy was invented.
Quarantined with a manipulative and abusive mother, though, and after the loss of your guinea pig too—that's a really tough situation.
