Hey,

I'm new to the forum and I guess I just wanted to talk to people about just generally being able to tell the future. It sounds kind of crazy just saying it like that. Anways, I have always felt like I can just "predict" really small stupid things that go on. This is getting to be about a once-twice a week thing now.

The two things that have both happend recently was just thinking that I was going to see someone I knew at the grocery store and when I was walking up and I actually saw them walking out. Then today (I live in a dorm) my roomate left to take a shower and I just thought that he was going to walk back in because he forgot something and sure enough 5 seconds later he did!

There have always been things like this that go in my life. I can remember very few things from when I was aged 4-10 but I remember my dreams coming true was an often thing but not so much anymore. Now it is just the stupid things or being able to predict who is calling me before I look at the caller ID or being able to predict who has emailed me when I see I have new email. lol

Also, I don't know if this has anything to do with anything but I sometimes get these really heavy overwhelming emotions. It is very strange the most common one that I seem to get is just this feeling of helplessness. Sometimes it is so overwhelming I just want to start to cry. It usually just comes from like looking at a tree or a sunset. It is very strange and sometimes I feel anger, but rarely. The random crying is what I seem to wonder the most about. I swear I'm not bipolar or anything lol It is just like a strange feeling that just takes me over.

I guess what I'm just trying to ask is how can I train myself to be better at all of this stuff? Is it possible to predict more then just "little" things without just being born lucky? And would you even consider the things I'm doing psychic or just getting lucky?

definitly psycic.

welcome.

the overwhelming emotions you get are from other people. the next time this happens, ask the universe in your head "who is this" and see whos face pops into your mind.
you get this because they need help, reasurance. and maybe medical treatment, if it is the same peerson all the time, they may be going bipolar.

start doing some reading on the topic of meditation ( there are lots of people on here that are willing to help you if you preffer to sit in front of the computer, i do. i dont have to cut down trees )
there are lots of books with good little excersises in them ( and people here can give you some sugestions ) to start getting this under control. it is a tool, learn to use it, and use it. there are many other abilities that are lying dormant right now ( do some reading on edgar case, you may find some of history and his techniques can help you through school )

Interesting. Welcome.

wow,cool i always wanted to have something like that

Sounds like puberty. Welcome to the world of hormones.

Honestly, it's not that uncommon to experience feelings like the ones you describe, especially at a relatively young age. Be smart about it, and concentrate on who and what you are and feel, and take what outsiders say with a grain of salt. Odds are your parents are more concerned with your well-being than your "friends", so ask them about what you are feeling. They may have some honest and caring insight if you actually listen to them with an open mind. The same open mind you approach psychic abilities with.

This does not mean you are not sensitive in some psychic way. It just means you need to integrate your sensitivity with the reality of the world around you.
psychicpowersarenice
You sound like me original.gif lol

I can relate to being able to randomly predict really small things wink2.gif

Idk how to really get in under control either :/
Nik Xues
cool!

my sight is limited to lv5 in the next new video game i play [im serious]

i can predict things but i beleive it is more timing and probability.

as for sudden feelings im empathic to some people but i account it to being around them so much. although we all have specific frequency[emotion] where you feel anothers emotion fully [mine is inner pain].

Welcome to U.M. psyboy,
I can identify with your being able to predict silly little things. At 33 I still can't control what I call knowings, but I know when I am having one or experiencing one that that, is exactly what it is, a knowing something.

Last one was last night at my childs Christmas breakup. I knew who would be awarded the School trophy and I don't even know the girl who got it. The whole handing the prize over had nothing to do with me.

My Mother has what she calls pictures. When she gets a picture in her head of something. eg: My Brother laying on the ground or debris blowing in through a car windshield. But she doesn't know what it means until after the event takes place. eg: My Brother becoming unconcious after bleeding badly when he tried to smash a window with his hand, and a nasty car accident which I had two weeks after the picture she saw of the debris blowing in the car windshield.

I don't understand it but I know what you mean. original.gif

Oddly enough my wife has these "knowings" too sometimes. She even gets them in dreams sometimes. A few times so vivid it's scary.

Welcome! I can do that too. It's weird. I can't contol it, though. It mostly happens in my dreams.

Unfortunately you are not "Psychic" but you seem to have a gift of near future foresight. Also things like that happen all the time and it can be purely dumb luck. Does your roommate have a habit of forgetting things? If not you are definitely gifted. Everybody has gifts and you have a special one, like some people can see or speak to the dead without use of ritual. They see the dead like they see other people. I recomend you see an aboriginal medicine man to see what your gifts are. and the reason kids seem to have psychic ability is they recently came from a spiritual plane of existence, and elders have psychic ability is they are so close to going back to that plane of existence.

I disagree. These "gifts" have never been proven or substantiated.

Scientific testing of course, but psychics always have excuse why the cant. The truth is they have no abilities. Being defensive about being tested does not help your cause. It helps prove mine.

yes.

i have been doing readings a healings for people for a long time.

when i come here and read what people write, i "pick up" on what they are saying.
when they have questions, i get the "sparks" in my vision and "feel" the vibrations that so many here describe when they are about to AP.
these are signals that they need a response. an affermation if you will. ( i am "tuning in" to them )

sceptics my procced with their bashing and debunking now.

its not the words i "tune in" to, its the intent.

Easy to say. Hard for you to prove.

Most of the experiences you talk about seem pretty normal, not paranormal. The key in understanding whether or not you are paranormal is by researching the topics. Try looking up parapsychological journals and studies led by credible parapsychological authorities. What's also very important is to research both the skeptic's view as well as the proponents view. Believe it or not, credible skeptics can give just as much insight as proponents. The key is discovering and applying facts and comprehension to those facts....not just bias Sometimes we want to believe in something so much we forget to understand that much in life....most things in life...have explicable answers....And then, on those rare occasions for those select few in the world...sometimes they mistake their paranormal gifts for normal circumstances. So what should be done to find the answer?...........
Try answering these questions when figuring out whether or not you are experiencing psychic phenomena:
How often do these events occur?
Can these events be explained by normal means? Why or why not?
Keep a journal of your dreams and/or waking sensations. The time, date, and circumstances of the experience. Even if the sensations don't make any sense, write them down to your best ability anyway. Constant evaluation, research, and re-evaluation is key to you finding your answer. We must realise however that paranormal ability, at its' genuine, is exceedingly rare. So does that mean you are or are not psychic? Only time, research, and the inner self will know that answer
Good luck and Blessed Be

The world is so predictible.
have alot, I mean alot of deja vu's. Alwais from dreams. But it doesnt make me psychic.
Things are so easy to guess and when you guss right you freak out and begin to think about a career in psychism.
Like exams, people are usualy so stressed about them that some dreams about those. They either think dream of passing it or failling it and they get obsessed by the
idea of the seen option that it usualy does come true.

You have to watch out for any proofs that came before the thougt to see if it did came from that obsesion.
IF! If their was no possible ways you could have seen or think that before well theirs a slight chance of you being gifted with clairvoyance(french!).
i dreamt of a basement when i was in 4 grade i think. Same dream for a week ( I usualy dont dream ) 4 years later,
i move with my mom and i go down ( first time i had a basement) SAME place. Reason for that? no freekin idea lol. I guess i did like that basement.
My dreams usualy signals a great day for me i guess.

OK, then read me. Look at my old posts. Amaze me. Stun me. Surprise me in some way that will make me wonder if maybe you are truly sensitive enough to pick up on someones emotional state via the internet.

OMW i know that feeling! Sometime, not that often it happens to me to! like I sit and sometimes i play this game with my friend and try guessing the next car that goes by... its colour or its type... sometimes i sit alone and do this. now what is scary if i just get a feeling of it, like last time i guessed it is a red 4x4 and guess what car came next? It is freaky but cool laugh.gifgrin2.gif but the problem is then if i realized it and try to guess the next car, i guess wrong... but that feeling is so confident at first but then after im right i just dont get that feeling... but its only small things like that...

okay ... im officially crazy blink.gif
the eternal me
no your not crazy.
try somthing simpler. you have to get relaxed to tune in easier.
it is when you start getting excited that your head gets filled with all kinds of thoughts, then you are trying to sort through your own thoughts. other then feeling what the awnser is.
to help you to get past this excitment and be clearer in what you feel.
do the same thing with a coin, toss it in the air, and call the first thing that comes to mind.
its only a 50 50 shot, but with a little practice you can clear your thoughts and feel what is comming up next.
after a while you will start beating the odds.

OK, then read me. Look at my old posts. Amaze me. Stun me. Surprise me in some way that will make me wonder if maybe you are truly sensitive enough to pick up on someones emotional state via the internet.

i am not here to "prove" anything to you.
i am here to help those that want help in opening up or need some help in getting more clear.

you may have no idea what i am talking about, but there are others that do.
and that is fine for me.

no its not a cop out.
i am clear as to why i am here.
not to "prove" or debunk.
just to help.

Didn't wanna get lost in that long thread... hey at least you are asking questions and acknowledging your gifts a lot earlier than I did. YES -- adolescence magnified the effects for me. YES -- it started out early w/ vivid dreams that came true. GOT MY ATTENTION.

NO -- I know no one who can "control" it. Sometimes you are just shown or know what you are supposed to. However I have tweaked it a bit.

DREAMS -- l cant explain how but they multiplied in type and I learned to know I was in a dream and observe a lot and know that.

PRECOG -- I rely on that feeling and especially that sharp instant instinct. However far out it hits you in the face. Works better for me to just go w/ it unless I know it isn't me.

INVADING FEELINGS -- if as psyboy is true... empathy is really hard. Almost a curse sometimes. Focus on you and what you were feeling just before being overwhelmed and separate the two. Likely it is not you.

Good luck, all. It is really hard to see so much and not be able to save others. It hurts a lot and it was a rough week or so. After 40 years you'd think I would be not so soft shelled. Sending good thoughts your ways all... me two cents here. If it was meant to mean anything to you, you'll get what you need. Someone will or I wouldn't be writing at all.

Can't you let the spelling thing go? Perhaps you should be aware that people from all over the world and of all ages post on this site,.. English is not always the prime language and it's pathetic to generalise that only 'psychic and enlightened' are bad spellers.

Yep. Let's just date me by saying some of my best friends are Korean & Vietnam vets. WOW are they amazing today if they are still alive. Me one friend went to Vietnam in '71 and is the only one alive out of his battalion. Talk about a real survivor...

Anyways... I just post what I feel to say. If it is cryptic or doesn't make sense to you... not meant for you I guess. 2 people see an event; probably did not see the same thing. 2 people read a book; each gets something different out of it. Good thoughts to all.
