I have worked with two different patients who used ayahuasca one time and developed schizophrenia that was permanent for life. Both were female, both were under age twenty.
I have also worked with young men who used synthetic THC which is far stronger than regular weed that resulted in schizophrenia with one time use.
I do not do drugs and never will as I see what it does to the brain.
The transcendental experience with drug use is due to the diminishing of the ego self identity. The healthy ego identity creates a structure in consciousness that limits the feminine emotional consciousness from extending beyond the limits of “self.” People with big ego identities use the drugs, have the transcendental experience, and return to normal if use is minimal.
One man I worked with was an engineer who became addicted to the high from ayahuasca, using it dozens of times in 2022. He was losing his sense of self and devrloping schizophrenia.
The two young women had not developed a self identity and the one time use blocked their ability to do so, thus locking them in schizophrenia.
The ego self identity is logical consciousness that does not have the ability to hear voices. Thus in normal teenage development, a child transitions away from emotional consciousness as the prefrontal cortex and analytical logical thought processes develop.
As it relates to demonic influences, yes, the voices a schizophrenic hears are often, but not always demonic. They create an unhealthy dependency or codependency with the schizophrenic that blocks them from developing.
The drugs do open people to demonic influence. I’ve removed them many times over the years.
The hard part is breaking the dependency the schizophrenic has upon the demonic. They do not usually want to be healed.
The success I have had with schizophrenia has been by creating a shift in dependency to religion and a relationship with Jesus. That protects the person so the demons cannot come near them.
If I were to just remove the demons, the wound is not healed and they do not stay clean.
Interesting.
Thank you.
