I have. This is my story. Long time ago I was studying in a class where all this bright people are there. They don't like me coz I am from average classes got promoted in. So they kinda scared me with their killing eyes and took away my soul. This is true. With their behaviour even worst more, I couldn't go to recess to have my lunch and stay back in the class because I am afraid. I was bullied by them. When I am doing my own work they talk bad about me. Teachers know that but they don't care. They only care about those who can't study well and not the weak one. So I got depression from 1997-2006. These years are the bad years for me. I can't sleep because I lost my soul. Like I have my heart being taken to somewhere else. And with medication I got better till recently this year I really got back my soul. But only at night and when I am comfortable with myself. There is quiet atmosphere then I can think what to do.What I am most happy about is my soul is coming back to me.Maybe because I pray night and day and God finally answer my prayer.Right now I am posting this discussion is to see whether you all believe you can lost your soul if you are scared by something or someone.

HI choi yee!!
Hmm..seems it is tough to lost the soul. That is why I won't dare to let it go away from me. Really....Even if I feel pain and give up, lost I will not let my soul, my heart and my mind go away.. I need to be strong. That is what I say to myself. I need to stay conscious and alert as the world will leave us behind if we feel weak and helpless. No time for that..It is good to know that you found your soul back and hope you bear with all the bad things happen to you and don't let your soul lost again as you may see it is hard and takes time to gather it back..(^^)

I have heard about children lost their soul and keep crying at night, but I never heard about an adult ever lost their soul before. I myself have not encounter such an experience and it is hard for me to imagine the situation. It will be really scary to lost one soul since as Chinese said, we all have 7 souls and if lost one of it will still be fine but the person will be quite abnormal when compare to a normal person with full souls.

yes. I had went to a medium and she said I lost not only one but three souls remaining 4 souls. So it is hard for me to function normally. The things I do are not with my full souls and I feel very terrible. Now this year I have finally found back my souls. Believe it or not, it comes back to me naturally, I did not ask God for it but I keep on doing charity and pray for forgiveness. I don't know what have I did wrong and I am sincerely asking for forgiveness. Finally I got back and at night only my souls are completely 7 souls that's why I always mylotting at night. Day time is hard to get through for me. I have to sleep at day time and sometimes when I take a bath and eating. But it is quite still bearable. Thanks for your response.

I think that I lost my spirit in 2001 when there was a person that I was in a relationship with that really brought me down. I told those people around me at that point in time that there would never be another person that really knew me and for the most part that is the case. The only person that I've met since then that really knows me is my husband. That is the reason that in the face of the problems that our family has been through this year I've turned to those people that I was friends with when I was younger.

Hi dear,
As life goes on, we have to overcome different levels and various phases of life experiences differently. In schools, colleges, married life, office work etc. we have to face various people with different levels. Especially when we are in school and colleges, especially we belongs to an average or below average, we may always get haunted by such situation.
However, it is gone and feel be relaxed. I never lost my soul, but I had similar experiences. But at that time it was so heavy but when think of those days, for me now it is really a moment of certain long sighs and a blank smile would come to my mind and on lips. It is sure that you had a nice and great mind and that is why you lost it. Really you must have a good person and it is the reason why you got much bothered of such situations. However, be happy and have a nice day.
Thank-s

Dear friend, I was still remember the past because I still care. I cannot forget my friends although they ill treated me. I love them. I cherished them. But now no more. I met a lot of people out there who are nicer. So its kind of fate of GOd to let me survive until today.

Nah! I like to keep my soul in tact with me.
Don't worry, my dear. You need to be strong for yourself. I never let my friends bully me. And I always take control of my life.
I almost got into a state of depression like you when I lost both my parents. But I overcame that.
Yes, prayers does help most of the time. But you still need to help yourself to overcome whatever fear you have inside you. You have to regain control of yourself. And to do that you need to take control of your mind because it is your mind and whatever that you are thinking of that is controlling everything in your life. Don't think of the negative things but always think positively.

i think describing being bullied as feeling as if you have "lost your soul" is a very good way to describe it. as it is an attack on the very inner core of your being.
you have done very well to get through this experience, wongchoiyee, and i hope you will never experience anything like this again.
its interesting, as am reading a book at the moment about emotional abuse, and the title of it is "stalking the soul", and the writer sees this sort of emotional abuse as being an attack on someones soul. she says such attacks are usually caused by jealousy, so you might want to ask yourself what attributes you have that was not liked by those who bullied you. perhaps they did not like that you were clever, and kind and gentle, and attacked you for that. but those are very valuable things!

Dear Friend
Life consists of uncertain ,unexpected lows/down and highs/ups but we should not feel dipressed out of it........
In Jungle there are lions but that does not mean that Jungle is meant for lions yes they rule the jungle but all other animals does live there .........and why to forget when these untamed loins faced bunch of elephants they run away like cats .........
So samething happens in life when you see people like loin dont get afraid of them since GOD has created elephants for them so that when they get untamed elephants can bring them back to ground and likewise.........
And dear infact soul is never lost its there inthe body till we are alive its the heart that we loose........
Yes similar time came in my professional life and my untamed manager forced me to resign I fought with him well only by grace of GOD and later I willingly resign since my manager was an evil personality so keep praying to GOD an always be in good company no one can be more powerful than our creator GOD so take his shelter........

First of all you cannot lose your soul. Your soul is your spiritual self and it is not subject to lost due to things that happen in this life. What you lost is your self respect, this is easy to lose especially when we are young. As you mature you learn that what others think about you should hold very little importance, what is important is what you think of yourself. We are very hard on ourselves and very unforgiving. All this comes from living in the past, but the past is just that, past. Nothing you do will change it so leave as a learning experience and move on. Take stock of the present and change what you wish but
realize that living in the present is really all any of us can do. Sure you can look forward but only from the present. If you want write notes to yourself about goals this brings these things into the front of your mind and helps you focus. Blessing.

There's no such a thing as a soul, so I mean you're using a metaphor for the years you had to suffer, isn't it?
We all have had bad times. School is the hardest time of many people's lifes, but being able to finish it and start with real life is a challenge, and many good things wait for us once we have finished the dark years of our lifes.
I'm scared of many things, but that won't stop me from going on

I think it's not losing your soul, maybe you are just discourage because of their bullying, In our life we can't always please everyone and there are always people who will try to bring us down. in times like that a prayer is a big help,and some good friends that will encourage us. goodluck:)

It feels horrible to lose one's soul. It seems that happened to me once. And something afterwards reminded me of that. Sometimes I am scared, sepecially at nights. But now I'm fine. I think I have recovered. It is just a small hardship. I know that I can overcome it.
