Help with strange symptoms

[gravitysrainbow]

So, I don't really know what's going on with my light and physical body lately, but at times it can be very intense and uncomfortable. I'm curious to see if anyone else experiences these symptoms.

At night, when I'm lying down, there's a strange sensation in my back. It's as if there's energy moving up and down my spine and it creates a tickling sensation. I really dislike being tickled, so sometimes I'll wake up from a dream and end up flailing because the feeling is so strong. Lying on my back used to help with this, but now I get it when I'm lying in any position.

The symptoms I get during the day are a little harder to deal with. Waves of extreme emotions will go through me like a freight train. My emotions and my senses seem amplified. If I feel sad, I have to stop what I'm doing, center myself, and calm down. If I feel angry, my whole body starts shaking. If I'm happy, I have boundless energy. I doubt these are signs of ascension, but more a sign that I need an emotional release. However, its a huge concern of mine because it makes my day difficult. It's like being on a roller coaster with a broken safety bar, knowing its broken, and clinging onto it for dear life. I'm anxious every day and that's not how I want to spend each day.

Advice, insights, or explanations would be greatly appreciated.

As you say, it sounds like you need to release pent up emotions. Counselling (therapy) if you can get it, can help you to release emotion a little at a time in a safe environment, as well as help you discover where those emotions stem from and perhaps give you ways to release emotion as you go, in the future.

For milder emotions there are things like EFT (emotional freedom technique) that people find useful.

But also, exercise can help to release the energy created by emotions and leave you feeling more relaxed. And if you know where the emotions stem from, perhaps it's time to start writing that out of you and letting the emotions come as you write.

I think you should look at each level of yourself in turn (physical, mental emotional, spiritual)to see where the symptoms are coming from. Emotions are always trying to tell you something and if you find out what is underlying them they will release and disappear. Changing your diet might help. There are some interesting articles on this site which link Ayurveda, astrological elements and lifestyle- worth a look as I think the diets they talk about help a lot. http://powerof3info.fatcow.com/
The energy moving up and down your spine sounds like muscular and nerve spasms probably caused by tension- so a weekly massage for a while (esp. an aroma therapy one) would help enormously.

You are not in need of an emotional "release" , you are in need of an emotional "transformation" , that is why you feel the tickling of energy up and down the spine!

Anger results when we fail to move into ACCEPTANCE of a non-want, a thwarted want.

Kundalini Energy moves up the spine and when it meets "resistance" it can be quite something to GROW through. Be kind and patient to Self , get a massage , or go camping, take a break in nature.

Look up Chrism Kundalini on you tube, look for the safeties he has on his website, look into "Five Tibetans Kundalini Awakening Systems1" on you tube.
There are some negative comments on the web about Chrism but I feel he is an honest guy who is trying to help, he has some great videos out there that can help you.
Best of luck.

As far as I know, ascension happens AFTER death, not during life, but don't quote me on that. And secondly, it sounds like you are highly empathic and need to learn to shield yourself from other people's physical discomfort or emotions. I'm like that too and it makes a difference when you shield yourself. Imagine being surrounded by a clear bubble and then filling it up with your own energy. Then do a couple more layers above that one. That's what I do, anyway. It lasts longer. Then after you do that, you'll feel like you are back on solid ground or something.

I know how it feels to feel like you are overwhelmed by other people. It sucks.

Time to research the signs and symptoms of Kundalini awakening IF you've been doing spiritual work that lead up to this.

If your just a regular Joe out there trying to get on with his business and not trying to awaken your consciousness or draw closer to the divine or look deep within to see what's there, then you might want to see a neurologist and have some tests run.

However since you are posting in a spiritual forum and not Ask Dr So-and-So, I assume your issues are related to energy blockages beginning to clear up and kundalini energy beginning to flow...
... or a stage just before that when we sort of organically clear some old blockages, things we didn't FEEL enough at the time and crammed in a 'box' to deal with later and now it's 'later'.

I can recall the start of my Kundalini awakening, except rather than the tickly feeling, I just felt a flush of energy..........like a burst of warmth that went throughout my body. It was delicious and never happened again.
