POST-EMOTIONAL NARCOLEPSY


Isaiah stood and then, he stooped;
A seasoned prophet for the umpteenth time, absorbing a message from his Master:
‘Isaiah can you hear me?
I will come to heal the broken-hearted,
Yes, all of them
I will come (and Isaiah sensed him smile)
To set at liberty the bruised in spirit
So tell them,
Tell the bruised reeds to come, with their broken hearts, worn bodies and all;
I will heal all!’
Isaiah stood from his stooped position once again,
Flipped his brown parchment over howbeit, skeptically;
He had to continue now:
For excitedly, the Lord was saying:
‘Emotional narcoleptics can be healed of their visceral pain
They can all have restored circadian rhythms, if they so choose’
Isaiah looked up, this time with a glint of understanding in his eyes
The people  around were staring at him as if they could perceive an aura of  imminent madness,
He seemed to be talking to himself, but no, he was having a discussion with Yahweh
‘But when are you coming?
When do I tell them you’re coming?’
‘Isaiah, you just do this
Make me proud by delivering this message
And when you see me, you’d smile in full understanding’


This is a sequel to last Monday’s post on emotional narcolepsy.
Emotional narcolepsy isn’t normal, no one should be emotionally asleep due to deep-seated pain or anguish. There is a healer in the house! Part of his mandate is the restoration of emotional health.
Freedom calls out to us people! Let us embrace it

WANNABE INTERN

Week 2 Message to the Pre-Intern: don’t lose hope! Week 2, for me, was 2 months post-induction. This was when the wait began to sink in. You mean I’ve been home for two whole months? By now, I was literally chewing on my fingernails. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t scared of getting a space, but I certainly wasn’t confident about any place anymore. That is when I began to write this book. Today is the 12th of September and I sit at the dining table in my parents’ house, typing at 11:27pm (because well, I have an editing job to finish up, but mostly because I don’t have to go anywhere tomorrow morning). If I don’t want to, I don’t even have to take a bath tomorrow morning because well, I can stay indoors all day! (I most likely will stay indoors, except for those few minutes when I step out to buy hot akara for my akamu). I am spent. You know, I have applied to a couple of places now. Let me start with the first: LS Health Service Commission At the State Health servic...

NERVOUS TIME: CORRELATIONS BETWEEN THE NERVOUS SYSTEM AND TIME

Although the nervous system is a pretty tangible mass comprising nervous tissue mainly, and time is quite intangible; there are pretty astonishing facts that they seemingly buttress in spite of their clear differences. Taking a break from our series on hearing right, we observe the astounding similarities between the nervous system’s component, the brain and time. 1.       Both offer you a grand choice : You  can decide to either fritt away or invest your time, as much as you can choose to waste a large part of your brain while shying away as much as possible from doing anything remotely mentally-exerting. 2.         Memory: The common phrase “Time will tell” briefly encapsulates the fact that time really, does manage to bring up decisions, actons, words of the past to stare into our faces. The concept of memory (which time makes use of) isn’t any stranger. Memory storage occurs in the brain; and certainly, in the hea...

FRUSTRATED???

Sometimes in doubt...but never gonna give up! Sometimes life in and out of the world of medicine could be downright frustrating. What do you do in such situations? Simply watch life unfold or what? I don’t know. Really. I wish I could tell you: Be strong! But sometimes, motivational speeches should be shoved down the closet- deep down. Cos they won’t work. So I’d tell you: look to the Lord and his strength, seek him even in the midst of your pain and the storms around you, cos the sun will shine again. It will. Cos God promises it will.
