I thought that I would share my story about the brain healing I received
from God. My name is Rachel Obanubi and I live in London UK. I am a
Christian and have been since I was a child and I am 52 today. This is
the first time this happened to me in my life in April 2025. I am more
than ok having autism in my life and have never asked God to remove
this from me and would not, it makes me who I am as well.
I have
been struggling hearing my own thoughts in my head being played back to
me repetitively and I was hearing what other people said to me being
played back in a repetitive echo in my brain too. I never had voices in
my head unknown to me, let that be known. As I stress it was my thoughts
I was hearing what I had said or written myself or what others had said
being played back on an echo so repetitively in my brain. This appeared
to be due to my sensory condition and autism. I have quite significant
repetition in the brain with autism which I am diagnosed with. It has
appeared in a head scan to. There was no issue at this point or
something that needed recovery-but it tremendously worse during an
incredibly severe overwhelming episode when the members in one body fell
out of cohesion.
I had been taking medication for this as well
Serqouel that gave me no remedy. My last brain scan of my head showed
likely potential issues with repetition which is a feature of autism for
some people. What happened is that I was having say an autistic thought
and a thought from my everyday life and they were like meeting in my
brain together and cross wiring. It was a bit of a mess and like they
would communicate back and forth to each other. It got quite bad and it
was like different parts of my brain the signals were faulty. The
repetition at this point was not usable-if I said one thought it could
20 minutes to hear in my mind at which point I forgot what it was all
about. The members in one body that Psalm 139 notes in my brain also
were out of sync and didn't feel to be in a cohesive body. I got
recovery for it and now it is now usable thanks be to God.
The
work to repair it lasted for about 4 weeks. Once a week after church on a
Sunday I would sit at home and it felt like my brain would start
lightly spinning and it like it was being worked on. One intervention
came at Church in the final week. It just got cold around me-the breath
of wind The Holy Ghost was present and my brain started to be worked on
as I sat and the cross interchanging of my thoughts just ceased and it
is so much better. I am so grateful. All members in Psalm 139 today are
united praise be to God. I was praying for it a while.
I receive
the Eucharist and blood of Christ at Church and I have been going
regularly for a while now. I still have autism as I wrote but my head
is now more usable. God has made me a better model of myself, my sensory
hearing has increased even.
God has supported me by the presence of the Holy Spirit when I
have been overwhelmed with my autism. I can feel it around me. He knows
how to care for us.
God can work miracles and even so today as well. I wish you all well in your journeys.
Below
is the findings from my MRI report in 2022 before things deteriorated
with my repetition in my brain. The findings were consistent with
repetitive issues in my brain that were inherent with autism.
“There are a few periventricular
and subcortical white matter signal abnormalities bilaterally which are
nonspecific but more than expected for patient of this age”.
From research-
“Periventricular
WMH volume was not associated with age but was associated with greater
restricted repetitive behaviours. Thus, findings demonstrate that
periventricular WMH volume is elevated in ASD and associated with a
higher degree of repetitive behaviors and restricted interests.”

Thanks be to God forever.
