Drainage

[bluebinding]

Does anyone else ever get extremely drained, sick-feeling, and dizzy after engaging in too many active (by active, meaning more mental/emotional) connections and just needs to lie down and be....yin? Like you need to lie down and not think of anything, drink water, calm yourself, and wait until it passes?

I know what fainting and dehydration feel like...this is similar but when it happens I've usually been eating and drinking plenty, so physically there shouldn't be a problem. It can even happen on an easy day when I'm just relaxing at home...but I've talked with too many friends and/or been on the internet too long. It's seems more like I've taken too big of a bite extending myself, have been with too many people and situations, and I need to go into sleep mode before my body is back to normal.

Does this happen to anyone else?

Hi bluebinding,

This happens to me but only in regards to two circumstances. When I'm in the dream state asleep, all kinds of fun things are happening energy wise. Traversing different realms, interacting with different energies. So I usually wake up very tried. Because I just spent 8 hours doing an energetic dance through other realms and dimensions.

When I spend too much time away from nature, I immediately feel drained. This includes spending time in places that are filled with metal or brick buildings, and spending time with people who are not energetically balanced. For example, when I spend too much time around people who are energy parasites I immediately feel my energy drain and I need to get away to refuel. It used to only take a couple hours for me to refuel. Now I need days of no human contact to regain my energy. It's weird.

On a side note, I think if you put a lot of energy in to activity, whether it be reading, or talking to someone, or working out, it's going to drain your energy a bit. If it happens a lot, and you are getting dizzy and possibly blacking out, you might need to ground your energy to keep your body more in balance.
