Have you ever had so many ideas running through your mind at one time that you feel like you'll either go psychotic or just have a mental evolution? A few years ago at the end of my high school career I found myself depressed a lot because i just couldnt shut off my thoughts which also caused me many sleepless nights, at first it was driving me crazy but it eventually worked in my favor, after a while I had this idea that if I kept thinking at my current state my brain would just evolve in to a higher process or a new operation system if you will. At this time i never knew about all of the theories about a new age of consciousness expansion and mental evolution, but in the last year I've been reading up on it a lot and now it makes so much sense, I now understand why these thoughts pervaded my psyche for so long, and im so glad that there is more people out there that feel this way.

I've experienced this first

I've experienced this first hand and seen atleast two other people go through it. I don't understand it, but I know that each person was never the same afterwards.

me too

I've been having the same experience, accompanied by an almost frantic thirst for knowledge.

I've had a very similiar

I've had a very similiar experience on many occasions, its what I would call a moment of Xepher (or Khepher) an Egyptian word meaning "to come into being."

It is really frustrating

It is really frustrating sometimes, but the only thing about it that ever makes me unhappy is trying to stay grounded. I can't organize my thoughts! I work in customer service and have noticed that people have become more exaggerated in their personalities. I deal with very nice people, very rude people and extremely incompetent people instead of just lukewarm people. Problems that people call in about are way more complicated now than they were 4 years when I started. I get the feeling that it is something about our universe or our planet, but I am a conspiracy freak and start thinking that this is some kind of mental manipulation like a HAARP or ELF kind of thing. I don't know what to think about it, but I feel like my mind is idling faster than it used to. Synchronicites are happening a lot more now too. Any of you experience these often now?

It's hard to know what's

It's hard to know what's going on with other people and the world. What you can know is yourself. So if you're finding it hard to stay grounded or to calm your thoughts, work on that first. We can't help other people until we're at peace.

To answer your last point, I've been having more interesting coincidences happen - almost always when my mind is empty of thought and desire. It's funny typing that, because I was always a skeptic and scientist. I'm sure lots of us know what I mean :-)

As mind boggling as it is

As mind boggling as it is and how stressful it can be sometimes I do appreciate it because it has made me who I am today, its funny how the say 12 to 15 will be the hardest years of your life becuase your body is going through changes but i have to say 17 to 19 was the hardest for me becasue instead of going through a bodily change or "puberty" i went through a mental change or "mental puberty" if that makes any sense, i never really knew my place or beliefs, they started changing so fast and in the weirdest directions, But out of all of that confusion that lasted for two years its really shaped my present beliefs and how I see things as a whole. I now feel better connected to reality and have found my place in the cosmos. And yes synchronicities are certainly happening more now, sometimes its hard though because if your not paying attention you can miss them. We probably have many each day but miss them due to the subtlety of them sometimes.

It's great that you've found

It's great that you've found your place :-)

Enjoy it
