Vaj, can you enlarge on this a bit. Who is this "we" doing the
investigating?
The people I was referring to was a yogini and lineage-holder named
Joan Harrigan and her guru from the Saraswati order, Swami
Chandrasekharanand of Rishikesh. They are some of the few, possibly
the only people in the west who are doing the difficult work of
helping people who had imbalanced or dead-end kundalini awakenings
resolve their issues. Two of the most famous ex-TMers that I know of
who have utilized and praised their services are Earl Kaplan and Dr.
John Doulliard. Doulliard was at one time a movement big wig, and an
expert in marma therapy. Here's what his wife said (emphasis mine):
I've known Swamiji and Joan for two years now and can honestly say
that they are the real deal. In this day and age of a hundred guru
wanna be's offering everything under the sun it's rare if not next to
impossible to find sincere, authentic, and truly competent spiritual
teachers with only your progress and best interest in mind. Their
retreats are truly life changing and transformational and their
comments on your personal history are worth the price of admission
alone. I've had many blessings in my life with six beautiful and
healthy kids and a wonderful husband but if one is a true spiritual
seeker there isn't any outward or physical blessing that can pacify
the soul's yearning like the discovery and experience of the real
spiritual progress that they offer.

They are out of Tennessee. If you have any questions whatsoever, I'd
recommend any TM or TMSP practitioner to read Joan's _Kundalini
Vidya_ or to contact these people for a consult.
I ask because I'm really not sure if the TMSP is doing me any good
anymore, I don't like doing long progs either, I used to but now it
makes me feel shite, really thick-headed, tired and angry, nothing
easy or relaxing about it.
These are not unusual symptoms for someone with an imbalanced
arising, but let these people consult with you, they are extremely
detailed, authentic and have helped a lot of damaged people.
What many people do not realize is that certain gurus can utilize
unbalanced awakenings to their advantage. One of these ways is to get
the students to cultivate siddhis.
