OK, now that you mention it; Stress affects me a little differently since getting TM. Now, it increases the likelihood that I will get a nice mind-bending seizure, whereafter I must spend a couple of days collecting my scattered brains. It really feels wonderful just before getting one and during the first few minutes, but then, it is sleep and then emptiness.
I think something piggybacked on the original TM seizure activity I had since 22 April 2010 (in the atrium of the main building of the girl's campus, no less). Those were mostly physical and lasted for hours. But they morphed over into more of a mental disorder, where I would become just empty-eyed and unable to coordinate my limbs. I would just stand there, if I hadn't already fallen, waiting for someone to help me walk to a safe place. Now, I have used this mustard cure for about two months and have felt good enough that I have gotten a real estate licensemy wife is an agent here in New Yorkto work with her in the business. But as soon as we started to work together the stress built up again, and so now the seizures are back. I soon enough realized that I can't remember things, names, places, times, dates, addresses, numbers,--and I am thinking of real estate work? My way of dealing with this stress is to back-off, and announce that I will be doing less, and that doesn't mean giving up, but just pacing things out a little. Meanwhile, there is this manuscript on the economics of the Qur'an awaiting my finishing touches before finding a publisher (my second book). The work just flows, and I truly understand all these things that comprise its ingredients. So here might be something for you all to chew on, if you like.
