Somatic mysticism, diet and returning to my ancestry…. The hungry ghosts know. Listen. I like using “somatic mysticism” to explain my experience because I feel everything deeply in my body. I can feel my cells doing their work quite often and I feel all manner of metabolic movement and I feel far more than I can even begin to really know from a biological standpoint. Still when I listen and pay attention I collect data, information to act on.
This is my experience after what, at this point, amounts to thousands of hours of mindful presence with the chaos in my body. ~~ Chronic illness, pharmaceutical injury ~~ One learns when one focuses attention. One learns a whole lot. That is meditation. Focused attention. So, my experience of chronic illness: Chronic illness is the body saying no to the toxic societal structures that we have internalized…healing from chronic illness is healing the whole human shebang. ~~ To be clear healing does not mean curing. There is no cure to this being human. ~~ ....
My experience with Lyme disease is also my experience with dyskinesia. The term "multiple systemic infections" is a better way to talk about Lyme disease. Lyme is always many different infections in longterm, chronic cases. Testing isn't dependable either . This area of study is not well defined or determined at this time. Insurance doesn't cover care and people are in crisis.
tardive dyskinesia/lyme face: my best looks over the last four years ~~ These selfies show how I’ve looked for most of the last four years. The condition is severe for about 6 months of the year and then fluctuates for the rest of the year.
It turns out dyskinesia is a recognized symptom of Bartonella, a Lyme disease co-infection. I was right. Tardive Dyskinesia, too, is an infection. I'm pretty sure it always is and not just in my case and I'm collecting studies to go about establishing enough evidence that the medical establishment will stop telling victims of psychiatric drugging that there is no hope. ...
TD Update: I've come to believe that serious microbiome issues (lyme disease) and tardyve diskinesia are essentially the same thing. Such is the experience in my body. I have lyme disease -- with five documented pathogens involved. To be clear I don't embrace the diagnosis because it's highly problematic. It is helpful in getting some of the care I need.
update: I did test positive for lyme and several co-infections in 2020 I had multiple infections that responded to Lyme disease treatment. I never tested positive for Lyme and gave up on doctors after that. Healing (for me) didn't mean killing off all micro-organisms. It meant bringing balance by moving out excess of the ones...

I've been working on detoxification and clearing and opening up my detox pathways for a decade. It's been slow and rough going for all the reasons y'all know about here. Still I have slowly come to tolerate a whole lot of detox herbs etc. I am now actually responding quite well to pretty hard-core Lyme disease protocols ...
