i have seen dead people my whole life. as a child it scared the heck out of me. know one believes a child, they're just having bad dreams. the problem was i saw them in the daytime too!
i saw my deceased great-grandma lots and i never even meant her. i knew it was her because she told me. she showed me things about her life as a child(kind of like shared memories.) she did house work in the old family homestead house. she was always surrounded by light, even in the daytime, she would be brighter then even the sunniest room.

i also saw very disturbing apparitions. buildings i would enter, scenes would play out in front of me(like the movie"i see dead people") that movie hit close to home for me. people thought i was a shy child, but, i was just afraid to get to far away from the safety of other people. nighttime was torture. i slept wrapped up in a cacoon of blankets, even on the hottest summer nights.

i am 26 and i still see family members, go into buildings and have things play out for me. it almost seems normal to me any more, sometime i wonder how know one else can see what i see.

i wonder if any one else has had these types of personal ghost sightings.

Can i join in the fun of similies?

Edit:
No, you cannot.

smilies are a group of non-discriminating free agents that exist to be used by anyone.

Edit
I beg to differ, when excessively used, they are plain irritating.I've edited some here and there and politely ask you to not do that again.

I see died* people to. Hi my name is Sarah I can tell how they died like if there is a rope around there neck then they were hanged. The ghost are scary. Can anyone give me ideas on ways to deal with this.


*I mean dead people sorry


I've deleted your next post and combined it with this. There's no need to add another post simply to correct a typo. Click 'Edit Post' at the top of your entry and you'll be able to do it yourself.

Wow, and I thought I was seeing dead people... Saw one once...but compared to you guys...that's got to scare the hell out of me.

Are these dead people similar to that of the ghosts in the movie? As what the child sees? How these people died is shown by what the ghosts appear as...

Please share more experiences...it'll help me understand. Don't worry about being too detailed...the more details the better.

first, you could find people who were killed and no one ever found out about them or their killers. second, that means you could very well be a psychic medium! ........right?

Maybe you should report these kinds of things to Bruce Willis instead

Someone's been watching a lil too much of the sixth sense I thinks

mashher...your post was very moving. I don't see dead people, but I have been to a location and felt the events play out. You say you see them....(I felt them.) When you see these scenes play out, what do you think they are?... Would you say it is like an imprint or recording...or do you think they are ghosts playing in these scenes?

Hi. My name is Debbie (Z34montegirl). I am new to this site. I have a 12 year old son who has been seeing 'things' since age 3. He is scared. Doesn't sleep alot. It is in everyplace we have lived, it is not the house. He sees shadows and people, dead and alive, but only one being one he knew as his pap. He sees them in the daytime and night, night being worse. You are how old now? Do u ever get scared or have u just come to accept it because they are not a threat to you? It is hard to find conversation about this topic with someone who doesn't make lewd comments that because they aren't 'gifted', they say YOU are weird. I say THEY are weird. lol. I am not gifted, but my son, daughter, age 20, and others on both sides of the family see different things. It is awsome from my standpoint. I would like to know more about your experiences if u don't mind sharing. It would make my son a bit more laxed maybe and maybe you also.
Well, take care and hope to hear from you soon. Have a good one!


Debbie

I've been receptive since I was 6, I'm now 28. I fully understand that it's not everyones cup of tea for conversation I'm deffinatley very aware of that and will only talk about these things to people who I know who are geniunaly interested.

Your son really needs to be concentrating on other aspects of his life while he is growing up, that's not to say to discourage him from telling you what he experiences, but at 12 years old he may not be mature enough to handle the whole life/death/spirit world thing. You can tell your son he isn't alone in what he experiences and do what you can to reasure him so his self esteem doesn't take any knocks.

It sounds like he is far to wide open and he could do some things to protect him self/calm things down a little so he can at least have peaceful nights and sleep.

Bubble of light

Have him picture a bubble of pure bright white light come down and absorb him so he's inside the bubble. He can ask that this bubble protects him from any negitive energy, intent, thought or entity. While he's in this bubble he can't be 'bothered' by pesky spirits and it will protect him from feeling any bad energy. If he needs to stregthen it at any time he can add a mirror surface to the outside of the bubble and see that anything coming his way gets bounced back to it's source. He can practise this excersise every night before he goes to bed and if at any time he feels scared he can just imagine himself in the bubble. He can also demand that 'whoever' leaves him be at this time and repect the fact he is just human and needs to sleep/rest. Sometimes spirits just need to be reminded and told to backoff....

"I see Dead Pepole Advertizing Pepsi"

wow Thats Amazing.. It's kind of sad because somethings must be scary. Guess You Must have Bad luck Or Here For another purpouse

Some people are born with Yin Yang eyes and can see the deceased. I've never had that experience before but it must really be scary in the beginning.

I've heard that if you use wet tangerine leafs and wipes your eyes with them you can see the decease. Not sure how valid that is.

I wouldn't think so.

Yeah, don't think that's how it works... but I could be wrong... or could I?

Its a myth, but I've not known anyone who has tried it.

Theres also supposedly a tree which gross long thin branches that you can cut and it resembles a whip and ghosts can really be whipped by it. i dont know the english name of this tree. But all ghosts are scared of it.

I see people who have passed over also.

Let me start by saying, I believe you are on a path of being a Medium/communicator. Seeing how they passed over, rope around neck, etc, will be a validation as you pass on the info, it is also a validation for your own personal growth, as you grow with in this ability, that will fade as you become more secure and the next step of the path opens to you.

I am also a communicator. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me & I will answer them.

If you have been seeing the spirits since childhood, then you know, there is nothing to fear.

I have heard that this will sting like a mug.

Oh...I feel a song coming on....

Lets get tangy with the wet tangerine leafs
Lets get tangy with the wet tangerine leafs

Lets slap them on to see the dead
It will sting alot but might be alright
Maybe you'd rather speak instead
Bust Out Da Ouija Board 'n' ask Ted

Lets get tangy with the wet tangerine leafs
Lets get tangy with the wet tangerine leafs

OMG LOL
You so silly!!
Actually, I could put this to music, I have the technology, and...

Wait a minute, someone is needing help, here. I will focus...

I agree that the son who is seeing spirits needs to be in activities where he can have normal childhood fun. This happened to my son, who is 22 now. He started out seeing animal spirits, and then people, later. It freaked him out. Some religious people I knew at the time told him that anything he sees must be demonic- which really pi**ed me off, because it is NOT true. But that scared him. Then, he thought he might be getting Paranoid Schizophrenia, from a report he did in Junior High school. So, we had him evaluated so that he would know that he was ok. Many people in our family see spirits, so I was not worried about it. But, he needed to know he was not crazy or wierd. He saw a tall, beautiful Angel standing over his bed, when he was only 3. My Catholic mother-in-law was thrilled, thinking he was visited by Mary. I don't know about that. This stuff just happens to some people, and we have to try and get used to it as a gift. Spirits are attracted to certain people's energy and compassion. Sometimes the spirits have a need, sometimes they are just passing by, or curious. Remember that the spiritual realm is around us all of the time. Some people see it more than others. Angels and protective beings are included in the surrounding spiritual realm.
If you or your child see spirits, you are also protected, because it is for an important reason that you will learn as time goes on. Practicing Anvil's Bubble of Light is a good thing, too, to keep your fears low, while you get used to this whole thing, and to not be vulnerable to darker beings. I would never even tell a child about the possibility of darker beings, unless they are plagued by something and need help getting rid of it. This is too scary and confusing otherwise, and like my son did for awhile, can cause them to withdraw and stop talking about what they experience.
It has been years for me, and I am not used to all of it yet. But I have learned that acceptance is easier than fighting it.
I hope this helps. I'm going through some heavy stuff, so it is harder lately, to focus and put things into words that I want to say.
Oh, and don't go by movies. Movies about this stuff are for "fun" and "thrills" and "entertainment only", so I never find that they have actual helpful information, when you are searching for it.

I know I'm so silly sometimes

What tune did you have in mind haha

hallo

never seen a dead person but if i did itd scare the hell out of me

omg did I really do that

I love Johnny Depp! I have a 6 foot poster of him at the piano, in my music room!

But, please don't tell someone that their "gifts" could be bad luck. If they have certain other issues, this could be very traumatic to them.

My family is like your family. I think that these days, people are becoming more aware of these possibilities and embracing them, rather than ignoring them, or discounting them as "mental illness". It is becoming more normal. Read everything you can, and talk to everyone on here that you can, that you trust, and it becomes easier. The spirit world and Heavenly realms are around us all of the time. Some see it, some don't. As a Celt, I believe that the veils between the worlds get very thin at this time of year, and there I see even more activity around us. I just accept it. It takes alot less energy, than it does to fight it.

To those who give crap to people who post about living with these wierd gifts, I ask you why does it make you afraid, so that you have to react that way?

You can nevert have too much Depp.

No, you can't.
Yep this is the poster, right over my keyboards...very inspiring...
I just watched "Chocolate" for the first time last week.
Holy Frioles, what a gorgeous Gypsy Babe...
Now that I got that out of my system...back to dead people...

Is the OP of this thread still around? I'm just curious how mashher is dealing with this 2 years later.








Not only is Johnny Depp gorgeous, but he is a very interesting, multi-faceted person. So many talents and so many layers. I find him fascinating.....but not just to look at.

Too true, too true.

after reading this thread
my thought, not asking anyone in particular
but do you think we all might have seen
dead people "ghosts" sometime or another
just walking down the street, that guy on the other side of the street,
someone passing by on a crowded sidewalk
a shadow sitting in the distance in a passing alley
that we dont think too much of or look twice
not like every being we see in life were gonna stop and ask "are you dead?"

makes you think...

Interesting thought. Very interesting and a little frightening.

I think that is entirely possible. A man who lives in a town near me once saw an elderly lady, early one evening, struggling to carry a large suitcase across an apartment building parking lot. She looked ill, and taking pity he asked if she would like him to help her with the suitcase. She replied that she would be grateful because she was so-o-o tired. As he reached for the suitcase the lady and the suitcase disappeared. Up until that point he would have sworn the lady was living and breathing. Had he not stopped to help he would never have realized the elderly lady was a spirit manifestation.

Thanks now I have chills.

Just a thought. Kids have more of a sense of the supernatural. So when they get older they lose that gift. Or did we all as children have it. But somewhere our parents friends or whatever conviced us that its not real. And the ability just faded away. There are stories of animals barking at walls or nothing in the middle of a room. Do they see or sense something we don't anymore. There was a case of a dog barking at a wall and the parents heared their ill son say "I'm not ready yet." The next day he died of the illness. Dogs aren't told that ghosts aren't real. So they may still have that ability. If humans don't use a part of there brain. It just closes off. I have desided to reopen it and see what is really around us. And I hope my children when I bring them up I shall incouurage them to learn the same. To see the world they it was meant to be like.



Onestly I don't think priests no sh** about demons or the backbones of there belief. Soz to all I inncolted by saying this but I stand by it. Most people of one belief won't let anyone else be right wat if another belief is right and urs in wrong. I know lets knock on peoples doors and convert people. You don't see pagans doing this. Yet pagans are still payed out because we would believe anything. Thats bull because Pagans is the oldest religon in history and has the belief of christ before any other. Plus there are thousands of pagan religons as long as they belief one thing. That everthing has a spirit an aura a peace to it. I think that would be the most peaceful world if we just followed that.

glad I got that off my chest. People can believe wat they want. Demonic this demonis that. Spirits are natural. People just don't understand them fully yet. (we now more abouts stars then we do our planet).

Just curious. What makes you believe that?

^Well its been a theory that since children are basically new to the world maybe part of them is stll attached to the spirit world.

I have a personal theory that suggests that we are born with everything that we may need to survive in life. Once a certain ability has been determined to be of no use anymore it just disappears.

Like morality for example...j/k

Dam... morality. Dam heaven that would have destoryed that usage.
I say the reason for the loss of most of our abilities is Technology. The real man that Tarzan was based on could take on a lion or wat ever cat that was. I would like to see us do that now. (Without being killed)

Yes I know that theory has been around for a long time, but I was curious as to what makes virusdeath believe it as truth.

Was the morality thing a dig at me?

I'm new but I thought I would share my own insight {if you don't mind }. I've had encounters with spirits ever since I was a child, and its something that used to be my downfall. I'm the only child, and my mother had trouble keeping children, she had four miscarriages, two before me and two after. Our family has always had an eye for seeing things that were not there, at least, on my father's side. My mother's, however, was devote in the thought that anything of that nature was Satanic. When I was younger, I used to see other children in my room all the time, though primarily at night, because I lived on the other side of our home from my parents and I was scared someone would break in and harm me. I always believed them to be guardian angels. When my Dad's side of the family found out, they were fine, and I had many experiences from staying at their houses.

My mom's side wasn't too open, and believed me to be mentally ill. They thought I was depressed and reaching out for attention, and I was so upset at how badly they looked at me that I started fearing seeing anyone. I had started to see them outside our homes, and I learned to keep my mouth shut about it and sleep with the lights on, since they never showed up as much in the light. Eventually everyone forgot, but I still talk to my Aunts about it on occasion. My cousin and I had numerous sightings, we actually had the police come visit one day because we were screaming so loud about a stranger [an old man] in our grandmother's home. I found out from a picture he was my great-uncle, and that he is seen commonly.

I still see them, and still feel them, though I feel them more than I see them at this point. I'm not sure that it has to do with age, but I've heard many people mention that young children see more because they are open-minded and more in touch with it, though I think if you're taught to believe something is wrong, you might have a hand in supressing your gift.' I'm not saying everyone's had a bad experience with it, or can suppress it, [God knows I can't], but I know I was never the same after the way my family reacted. [Sorry that this was so long!]

What do they look like?

They've always looked like regular people to me, some are more 'solid' than others. The old man in our house looked just like a regular person, and I've had people that seem almost easily missed with how light and transparent they are. More of the transparency seems to occur in the daytime however. Oddly enough, I never see any out of the house too often unless I'm with my Dad's side of the family.

I have had only one bad experience with ghosts, and I learned enough from that to last a lifetime, but other than that they seem like regular people. They just kind of follow me around for a few days, my cousin tends to bring them home. A girl I lived with last year was subconciously bringing them home, and though she couldn't see them, she could 'feel' their presence, and it was quite annoying how she always managed to get rid of one and the next night bring another. Thankfully, I've never seen a grotesque 'person,' just grotesque things.

So in your view, do you have the ability to see all dead people, or just certain dead people? Like dead people that haven't 'went thru the light' so to speak.

That's an interesting question. I've never really thought about that. I would definitely have to say only certain people, because I would figure I'd see a lot more than I do if I could see everyone. I'd think its people that probably stayed behind and didn't 'go through the light' as they call it, and people that seem to want to be found and noticed, since they're often nice and hang around for awhile before they leave.

Interesting Hisui, I've also been receptive since i was a child, but i think growing up in a haunted house had a lot to do with it, it certainly played a part in giving me the experience I have. There was never a fuss or an issue made of it for me, I was pretty oblivious to all untill I got to a certain age and I didn't really start taking it seriously till my early 20's.

The theory for children being more receptive that I like is that childrens energy and vibration level is higher along side with having an open mind and strong growth spurts with perception and senses. But only from a certain age I think, like 4 or 5 onwards...

I wonder if scientists spend time looking at how a psychic's brain works or anyone with supernatural ability. Human beings at most use only 10% of their brain for every function. Even using just 11% makes you a genius. But what about those with supernatural abilities?



Eh? I've read your posts from time to time but I don't know you well enough to shoot a comment like that at you.

That thing about the brain is a myth. And scientists have studied the brain of claimed psychics. They have a paranormal research center in North Carolina in the States.
