I’m sorry about my questions coming across stupid, but I really need to know how to deal with this. I don’t want nothing to do with it either. I’ve been stalling for a long time, I have been self medicating to keep things at arms length. Didn’t help. I don’t want everything I have worked hard for to be flushed down the toilet because of the spirits. I know I can’t just tell them to go, but I’m not the right person to go down that path.

I guess I’m asking for advice.
I don’t know enough about your situation, like what you’ve worked so hard for, to give you specific advice. But in general, if you mean things like a career, there’s probably no reason you can’t do both. After all, in most places that matter, discrimination based on religion is illegal, so you can’t be fired for this.

I certainly don’t plan to end my own professional career anytime soon. In fact, having a separate professional career means I don’t need to make money from any spiritual work I might want to do on the side. I can do healing work completely for free, which is good because it means I can afford to be choosy about who I want to work with, and it makes me more trustworthy for those who do seek my help, since they can be sure I’m not trying to scam anyone.

But in the end, I think the most important thing to do is to listen to your heart. Sometimes following it is risky, but ask yourself: if you’re given one chance at happiness, and you don’t go for it, would the life you’d be left with really be worth living? Sometimes you just have to be willing to take some chances. And if you’ve got good spirits with you, they’ll see to it that you don’t have to lose whatever really matters to you.

If you need more specific advice, you should probably contact me privately, with my contact form.
