S2 EP7: What the Past Taught Me About Loving Myself Through Antidepressant Withdrawal with Monique Glover

Welcome to The Past Life Project!

Hosted by Clinical Hypnotherapist and Regression Therapist Monique Glover, The Past Life Project is a space for curious conversations about subconscious wisdom, the deeper patterns shaping our lives and what healing might reveal beyond the limits of a single lifetime. Together, we explore what exists beneath persistent symptoms, recurring experiences, and the stories we’ve been taught about healing — inviting new ways of understanding ourselves and moving freely into the future.

In this solo episode, Monique talks about how she found her calling as a hypnotherapist in the midst of antidepressant withdrawal, and how healing her past trauma influenced the present.

Topics discussed in this episode include:
- Exploring psychic and energetic development
- Starting hypnotherapy and regression therapy for self
- Longing to solve the itch of unresolved anxiety
- Psychotropic drug withdrawal and delayed withdrawal
- The physical, mental and emotional turmoil of withdrawal

- How the tone and themes of past lives changed during antidepressant withdrawal
- Identifying as the victim and staying suck in a loop from collecting current and past life trauma
- Waves and windows of antidepressant withdrawal
- Lived experience as the greatest teacher
- When to do our own work and when to bring in professionals who will ask the right questions
- Surrendering to the fact that there was no magic key and healing had to start inside 
- Realization of learning to love self in the darkness bringing the most profound shift and healing
- Integrating and loving the past life versions of self that were pushed away
- Taking personal power back
- Changing the behaviours developed to cope that were keeping the stories of victimhood in place
- Importance embracing the physical body, integration and rest
