Can someone PLEASE help me?
I woke up this morning. and there was this strange smell in my apartment.
From the way  I would described it, it would be, it smelt like someone died in my apartment. I checked my entire apartment to see if I had an dirty dishes around. But, Im a pretty clean person. Later in the day, I out of the blue, had a heavy feeling dropped on me, I had and still do have a VERY STRONG and heavy feeling that someone I know and is close to me is going to die.It's 6am and  can't sleep because I can't get rid of this feeling. Im 19 years old, and I live on my own and I'm very worried. I am NOT use to this. Can someone PLEASE help me? Please tell me whats happening to me.

I can't explain the smell, but living in an apartment it could have been many many things. Is the smell still there? You could ask your landlord about it maybe.


I sort  of  understand the sudden heavy feeling you are talking about though, 2 years ago I had the same feeling for weeks that something bad was going to happen to me.  I don't know why I started feeling it, or where it came from. I've never been suicidal, or suffered from anxiety but I couldn't get rid of the feeling.  I dreamt almost every night horrible dreams where I was supposed to be killed somehow. Every dream one different some were car accidents, some were murders.  (I never actually did die in any of them though). I walked around in heavy, depressed daze for awhile.  I never told anyone how I was feeling but it did change me somewhat.  I made sure I told people around me what I really thought and felt. I wanted them to know that I appreciated and loved them, and I started listening to them and helping them as much as I could.  

I know if probably dosn't solve what you are feeling, I don't know if it's the same thing or not, but that's my experience.

Feelings of dread can be caused by many different things. I suggest you read up on the subject and seek professional assistance to assist you in coping with the feelings.

If an animal,rodent or bird died in the wall,that can smell pretty bad!!You might not know it was there until the smell.I found a dead mouse in the light switch a few months ago and had no clue it was there until we smelled it in the closet.Looked like it got electrocuted from chewing the wiring .I usually hear animals if they got into the wall,but this one was quiet as a mouse!!LOL!!Sorry...had to go there Anyways...probably just your sub conscious playing games with you and causing anxiety.
Hope all is well...Keep us posted

When I was living in an apartment (on the second floor) the guy living in the apartment below us died. The smell was horrible, because no one found him for a week. Do you live on anything above the first floor?

[angrdrgz]

I think when you smelled something you associated with a dead body anxiety kicked in and your mind is trying to make sense of your anxiety so it came up with "someone is going to die"  
hope you understand what I'm saying. the mind reacts to fear strangely.

i'm going to go way out on a limb here and suggest that you are not being truthful.
if i'm wrong then i'm just another heartless person on the internet, but somehow i don't think i am wrong

[mattryan209]

Hmmm, I smell something too,but it sort of smells like a rotting fish. I sometimes get that smell when I read stories like these.OP,no offense,but do you realize how untruthful your responses sound? Me thinks you're responses would be a little more descriptive if this story was real, instead of looking like an obvious ploy for attention and sympathy.

[Kismit]

And if it is true?

Why argue when it cannot be proven either way?Always remember the basic premise of if you can't say anything nice......

Am ignoring the above post for now but if I see it or anything similar posted after it. I won't be to pleased.

At the risk of angering Kismit I agree with this.
