Hello,

I have problems with hypersensitivity. I very easily feel energy from other people and busy places. This makes me feel drained and stressed very easily. It always takes a lot of time to get it out of my system. It also creates problems with getting asleep.
This makes me very cautious to new situations and people. It's always a big struggle for me. What if i get overwhelmed again? It has happened so many times that i instinctively have a lot of resistance and fear to new situations.
My world is rather small (but safe). My social network is also very limited due to this problem.
In the past there also have been periods of obsessive and compulsive behavior (this really began being a problem from September 1999). The last few years this has eased a lot.

Finding and keeping a job is also difficult because of this problem. My last decent job dates from December 2005. The job before that (May - October 2004) i had a nervous breakdown because the place was just too busy and noisy. It was like a trauma to me, my colleges didn't understand it so this created some extra tension.

The positive side of this sensitivity is that i easily feel the potential of healing methods. And with mantra i feel there is a lot of potential. I just don't know which one is best for my problem.
Someone suggested that i do the Durga mantra but after 20 days i really began having trouble with overheating and a very loud and sharp noise in both my ears (tinnitus). When i stopped the mantra, the problems also stopped. The Shiva mantra was also suggested but this made me feel very spaced out, like i'm pulled out of my body all the time.

So i just don't know it anymore...

I would appreciate some advice regarding a mantra (or stotra)


I thank in advance

Shanti
