First of all, I don't know whether I do have some sort of gift or not, if I do it's not nearly as developed as many people have described their owns gifts on here. I simply have very detailed dreams that come true, but the dreams are always of mundane things, like conversation, but they are so detailed that when I'm for example, sitting and talking to a friend, I will look around an realise the surroundings and be immediately reminded of my dream, and before my friend finishes talking, I'll know what she's going to say. Lately these have been changing from just a small amount of conversation to almost a whole dialogue.
I don't think I have a gift though, since the visions are so mundane?
Also, this year I have begun having overwhelming feelings of dread or anxiety when I'm around a group of people or friends, so much so that I have found it hard to breathe sometimes, like I physically can't handle whatever emotions I'm feeling. Originally I thought it might be stress or anxiety, but I really don't have anything to be stressed or anxious about at all?
Lastly, and more terrifyingly, I saw some kind of human figure, but as a shadow, yet. It was not against the wall? I was staying at my father's place and had been up all night, so I was half-asleep when I saw this figure, so it could have just been my tiredness? The figure wouldn't go away until I shut my eyes and called for my father who came into the room, and when I opened my eyes it was gone. I never went back to that house ever again (my father moved soon after).
My mother's sister always says she can see spirits, like her dead brother in the mirror. Could that be passed down to me?
In any case, after reading various stories on this site, I'm thinking about seeing someone who can tell me about what's going on with me face-to-face. If there is nothing, then I can continue my daily life as normal, but if there is something. That's what I'm scared for. I have read many terrifying experience on here, and I'm scared that if I do have something and develop whatever it is I might have, am I right to be scared? Do you just get used to the sense of fear? How do you overcome it? I am terrified of spirits, truly, and the thought that I might be able to see them does scare me. What can I do?
As for about if you have a gift, and this is from personal experience. Once it starts it doesn't go away, it just gets uncontrolled & it'll drive you crazy. I've done a ton of research online & people say meditating helps a lot to learn to control it.
Also I think your an empath, like me. It means you can feel other people's emotions. Sometimes if I was in a big crowd I would feel really overwhelmed with emotions. & like as soon as I hear someone's voice I feel what they're feeling. I think meditating is supposed to help that too. But I saw this online & I tried it if your having a moment when your like overwhelmed with emotions or its just too much.
Close your eyes & imagine a door, think of all the emotions & put them in the door & then close it. When you open your eyes you'll feel really calm. At least that's how it was for me. Hope that helps.:)
