Karma plays a role almost always in everything that happens. You are a composite of positive and negative experiences of all kinds, some created and engineered and orchestrated by you almost entirely, and some done with others in a kind of back and forth dance together, and some done to you almost entirely by others and inflicting great harm at times as a consequence, all of which gets stored away and will return in an endless cycle with the goal of creating an opportunity to work on it, to set things right, resolve old dilemmas, and restore oneself to a higher level of functioning and inner alignment. At least that is the hope of having such an oversight that will be a relentless monitor and stimulus for change. All too often, in the absence of an awareness this is happening, and in the absence of effective tools for self-improvement, self-healing in particular, what may happen through the Law of Karma is a rewounding that adds insult to injury and piles on energetically to increase the weight of the karmic obligations and, as a result, makes the life worse.
This individual had significant karmic history setting him up to indulge in various sources of pleasure that were harmful to his being and risky in ways unappreciated by most individuals. Substance abuse with alcohol or drugs, in particular, is a gateway for the attachment of dark spirits that can further undermine a person and tempt them with many dark thoughts, or terrorize them with inner bullying and manipulation through altered thinking, instilling negative self-limiting beliefs and, in providing significant discouragement and stress, drain away energy and leave a person vulnerable to the point of collapse. They can even tip people into madness by working on their deep subconscious mind, and other levels of the mind as well, to trigger delusional thinking, and once that takes hold can become difficult to dislodge.
Being subjected to abuse will further weaken a person by making them more vulnerable than before. This is the consequence of trauma, that it becomes a compounding of difficulty and will be alarming to the senses, stir up many old experiences from deep memory, even of other lifetimes, and leave a person reeling from the onslaught of all they have had to reckon with. This often convinces the deep subconscious mind that they are facing an overwhelming struggle. That will likely bring back around many painful times, and perhaps even cause their death. That is a lot to be facing on a regular basis and, even though it is outside conscious awareness, will undermine the physical body and the person emotionally. This is why many people have emotional breakdowns that seem inexplicable and are largely a mystery to themselves. People will seek a prosaic explanation and sometimes attribute their troubles to a simple prosaic causal circumstance, like losing a job or a girlfriend, when the problems can be much deeper and darker. There is much undermining of humanity by mind control manipulation done by extraterrestrial beings. This is a further negative overlay designed intentionally to corrupt and diminish human progress.
