Lynn – First of all, about your ‘periods of overwhelm’ – having suffered them I found something very helpful though it takes some effort. I mentioned it to a film star I met and he said it was a lifesaver for him. Also while I was interview on television I was talking to the producer, and she told me that this helped her to deal with a very busy and demanding life.
It is a breathing technique that reaches right into our unconscious and start to reprogram habits that cause depressive feelings. See it at

If this is so I would ask yourself what you have been unconsciously attracted to or is coming into your life.
It seems to be something you feel belongs to someone else – though it is your dream and you own the whole territory. In fact someone or something you asked for help from suggests you are not being honest. So ask yourself whether any of this rings bells for you.
It is probable you that you feel this ability, money, whatever it is, is not yours.
You obviously are a creative person, so own up to having more than you thought.
