Does briefly experiencing death cause spiritual damage?

As the title states. Does it? I had a brief brush with death around 9 years ago right after my 18th birthday. Long story short, my heart stopped, I was declared dead for a few minutes and according to the medical personnel I auto-resuscitated. Not from drugs or anything like that. I've done pretty well at staying away from them.

I don't know if it was while I was dead or in the process of dying, but I had an odd experience that messed me up pretty bad for a few years.

After my vision faded away and I could no longer feel or move my body, everything went black and I felt this immense sense of happiness and bliss. Then everything went from black to blue and it felt as if I was in water. After what felt like a few seconds, I heard a deep voice say my name and "Go back. You're not supposed to come yet." Then I woke up.

It could've been a voice simply created by my subconscious. There is a massive release of DMT upon death.

To say I was depressed when I came back is an understatement. I was utterly aggrieved. For several years. It wasn't necessarily that I wanted to die. I didn't. It just hit me really hard that I couldn't remember any other time before that I felt that happy and at peace. I spent several years after trying to think of at least one time. I'm sure there was, I just haven't remembered yet. Could it be that I was spiritually damaged in some way from this? My soul separating and being pulled back in like that before I had an understanding of it? Could someone of the enemy have done something while I was in such a vulnerable state? I don't fully understand how that works yet I guess.

Quite frankly I haven't been the same since. I don't look at life the same way or see the world the same way. It was beautiful, the smile I put on my face was real, and I miss that. Nowadays it's like I can't feel anything 90% of the time and I usually just want to be alone. When I laugh or smile it feels like a sickening mimicry of what I'm just supposed to do. Relationships, loving words sound false and unreal, things I used to enjoy just don't do it, I slowly let go of things I wanted to do. It's like I grabbed my body again and left something behind. I don't have a desire to die, but everything about living just looks so empty and pointless to me now. I've finally been recovering some over the past year. So surely I can eventually fully recover from this right? Unfortunately, I do not give up easily.

I just want to know if this caused it or if it was something else. Because if I know then I can do better at healing myself.

P.S. sorry for the venting. Just wanted to clarify the effects of this event for the purpose of determining cause. Otherwise, I would not have. Thank you for your time.
 
You are here, being a Zevist. I do not think that your experience caused spiritual damage, the Gods protect us. No enemy is touching anything that is of the Gods.

It was mentioned that this happened around the age of 18, depending on your life circumstances you probably are/were in a period of searching yourself. This can sometimes come up with depressive thoughts or confusion about what is happiness, what is living in general and who are you as a person.

This is why meditation and introspection is so important. Keep advancing and let yourself be guided by your GD. Find activities you enjoy, and if you think nothing is enjoyable or brings you happiness, reflect a bit on yourself and your thoughts. You can do the Self Love Meditation.
Life is beautiful, as beautiful as we make it.

Thank you. I'll try that. 🙏
