Past Life confrontations

What are the difficult challenges you've faced when first encountered your PL experiences/memories? And how did you overcome it? Please feel free to share it here.

The fragility of life was a big one for me, as well as facing the darker side of humanity. We're capable of some truly awful things.

Mongol me took a lot of lives, my own mother being the first (not intentionally as she died in childbirth, but still). Having vivid recollections of ending people's lives is honestly sickening, although to be honest, I didn't even flinch at the first ones I saw. There weren't exactly laws back then, so nobody really stopped me until the very end- basically a no man's land. At the time, I really didn't care about them or even myself, I simply acted in the moment, be it self defense or otherwise. Wasn't just random murder lol.

I had to reexamine everything I did and teach myself that those people's lives mattered, even though it's been like a thousand years and we've all been lost to time.

That was one shocking revelation, I can't imagine seeing my PL as a killer nor even if I just did it to survive. Do you have an original thread made where you discussed it more thoroughly? Thank you.

When it sunk in that I really did do that, I honestly felt sick to my stomach for a while. A number of them were people I know now, many of whom are good genuine friends and people I sincerely love and care for. I still have a lot of work to do in terms of repairing those relationships and just being better as a person.

I haven't, no. Not sure that thread would be appropriate on this forum, as far as the rules go. It's also why I've skimped on a lot of the details.

You have to realize it's not you, at least not the now version.

This is really a sensitive issue to discuss with, and if ever there is a way for a thorough discussion regarding PL experiences, that would be great.

Just curious though, was there a time when things got out of hand driving your PL memories to overflow? Have you thought of getting a psychiatrist at that time?

I wouldn't say out of hand, no. I took a few days to get my head together and process what I saw. I just kept telling myself that it was over and already done, and that I couldn't go back and change it now.

I did it all of my own free will, so I have to live with it and make it right.
