Disclaimer; the topic was about depression and anxiety if something matter triggered you, You shall skip but if you’re curious with her story, you should be discreet. For this was a real story.
I was mesmerized by the fact that I know this woman looking simple and nothing to be seen as strange. Normal life was changed by just a restless night; a problem was inside her head. And I feel bad and amazed how the people here handle this kind of thing in our place. Maybe we have been listed to some understanding.
In the early time, ignorance was still around, I admit that when I was young when someone was called “baliw” or crazy, people will take advantage of her to be a clown of the crowd, people will laugh and disregard this kind of person, but things had been changed when I see the scenario with my eyes, and clearly heard the thing that was only real as far as I know.
Let's just call her Karen, not her real name just a random name so if someone had the same name and situation it's highly just a coincidence.
I am not closed to this lady but she smiled at me when I met her in some spaces and neighbour events, she was married in her late thirsty’s and had a son. I was also a bit curious about her boy too, for 2 years old the only word he could express is “Ah ah ah ah”. Yeah, he must be had speech depict but I want to think that he will express talking in some times in the future...
But here is her story.
Karen met an old friend her batched friend in Elementary with some business in the local market. They two hang out again for the first time, and this friend told her about his problem financially, and Karen was a bit accompanied by the idea of lending some amount to grow filled the business again, as he promised her to pay it back as soon as possible.
But things change due to still restrictions and probations, the business still lay down to the flooring market and sadly it's closed for some reasons, she just found out this month later, as she was worried and thought too much about the money, the thing is that it wasn't her own money. It was from his youngest brother who was working somewhere, he lend that money to her so she could establish her Convenient store or Sari-sari store.
The story that I heard is that she blamed herself for what has done. Night becomes a long hour for she cannot sleep freely and is not comfortable with too much thinking. And said by her husband, she often hurt her head for no reason. I felt that relieved when banging my head because of the problem, but please don’t try it, it's too much.
One night wasn’t enough, that happened for three consecutive days and that give her some huge problems. She thinks she was possessed by a witch, she talks things out of her normal life and even calls people bad and awful words.
She can't control herself, her body was gradually degrading and people around her was felt worried about Karen and their selves for she was weakened by some demonic actions.
A pastor was come to the house to offer some help, the moment she saw the Pastor she scolded him like someone who was awful to her taste. I don’t know if it's really that she was possessed by some demonic mind controller, but all I know is that it's possible that weakened faith and body could be entered by some spirit from the unknown world.
People here remain calm about the situation, they do their part for giving her privacy and respect with help. My uncle and some of our neighbour houses agreed to talk to the person who lent the money. They tell him what was the story was the result of the consequences they got.
He was worried and immediately come to visit her, at the moment she saw the man. Karen began to talk about him “Mama the person who gets my money” she said with teary eyes.
He takes the blamed and agreed to take her on some medication for his expenses. See hows the money could give people curses. And its could mind and spirit weakened and at some point, it becomes the basis of placing a demon in the head.
This shall be written I said, as the moment right now. The market and the crypto tradings become too much stressed. And not only in crypto but also in the matter of losing money in a business or getting scammed for some illegal people.
That’s the thing when we lend some money we should not take it easy and don't nor never ignored those people whom we get some favour, they might gets it trouble too. I hoped I delivered her story will something to learn, Money is just money, they come and they go and happens all the time we could replace it twice or more.
