My first but not last experience of impending doom, began on December 26th Boxing day
1966, I was twenty one years young. and had been out all night drinking as usual. On my
way home I encountered a very weird experience, suddenly as I was walking along the
pavement my right foot trod on what seemed to be an electric buzzer protruding out of the
pavement and it gave me a nasty electric shock, I jumped up in the air and searched the
paving stone but no buzzer was there ,nothing at all. I went on home and went to bed. That
is when I first became acquainted with impending doom, I suddenly felt that my heart was
going to burst out of my chest, then this changed to my head was going to explode and
splatter my brains all over the ceiling, and I would die. This experience was the beginning
of nine years of almost daily feelings of impending doom. I will mention here that along
with this impending doom fear ridden experiences, I was also addicted to alcohol and
became an alcoholic. This lasted until I stopped drinking in 1974 July 26th. The impending
doom lasted for nine years. I had to be hospitalized twice with Delirum Tremens DTs for
short. The impending doom stopped shortly after I stopped drinking with the kind and
generous help from friends within Alcoholics Anonymous . My escape plan from impending
doom and alcohol addiction, was to go to meetings regularly, share my experiences with
others, as I am doing now, and I also took up meditation in 1974 and have continued with
this daily unto this day now. I know FULL WELL what fear and impending doom FEEL
LIKE, feeling all alone and helpless, self esteem non-existent, feeling worthless. you do not
have to have any alcohol or drug problems to experience impending doom, anyone can feel
this arise within them A A and meditation saved my life and sanity. if any of you reading this
identify with it, then you can recover, you can find inner peace of mind, my email address is
always at the bottom of my blog, anyone can contact me there if you want to. I have not
experienced any doom or the need to drink in the last forty six years, you too can be happy
and find joy in your life.
Warmest regards Michael.
