    1. I feel like I don't know who I am at times when I speak anymore, it feels performative almost, how do I pass through this?
    2. Does life feel totally different (like entering a new level of game) and energy shifts etc. in the awakening process? (in need of emotional support / guidance)
    3. Can I fall in love without attachment?

    1. The hardest part of the shift isn't the 'ego death,' it's the social isolation that follows.
    2. Fighting the ego...
    3. "Awakened" is a breeding ground for the Spiritual Ego.

    1. The hardest part of the shift isn't the 'ego death,' it's the social isolation that follows.
    2. Psyop theory
    3. Even if someone is “awakened,” in general we are all forced to play the game to survive/at work/whatever… so how do you know that the person you’re saying is not awakened and just faking to fit into the matrix.
