K has produced states of intense, irrational fear for me. On one occasion,
this fear was so overwhelming I stayed up all night in an intense, fairly
psychotic state, waiting to die, certain my death was coming that day.
Death from what, I did not know. I had to call in family to help me, and
insisted on being taken to a doctor (or did they insist on taking me?). It
passed of within a day. Nothing has since quite matched that terror, but I
did experience terror, some paranoia, and intense non-specific fear for
several years cyclicly as pms symptoms since k awakening. It got milder
and milder over time.

Not me. I did seek out a very understanding Jungian therapist when k first
hit; fortunately he saw me as sane, and liked to use our sessions to
describe his own k experiences. He was a rather old man, and a former
Catholic priest, and his stories were pretty interesting (but I was paying
$90 an hour!)
