I remember having experienced similar feelings, many times... but

the "answer" lies in realizing there is no answer (and eventually,

seeing there is no need for one!).

 

Instead of trying to escape this feeling when it occurs, observe and

examine it closely. Go more deeply into it, if possible.

 

"Despair" is a kind of self-sustaining loop... it is a condition

seeking to be rid of itself. If remaining with it long enough,

sometimes the loop itself can be observed, then "despair" is

transcended.

 

The only "way out" is through, so if you try to escape or avoid it

can only work temporarily (if at all).

 

Love,

 

Tim
