Ever since I was younger I could feel other people's emotions, then towards the start of my teen years I could control animals in a way by influencing there emotions. Then a while later I realized I could influence peoples emotions, I rarely did it as it was taking there free will and I knew it was wrong. It scared me in a way of the things that I could do but then that all changed when I met a girl and we started to date.
My ability started to drift away from me and then when we broke up it disappeared. My eye colour changed from green to blue and for a couple months and I was very sad, but now I have cheered up a little my eye colour has changed back and everything seems normal. Except I'm still missing my "power". My brother could feel others emotions as well but could never influence them in others, he told me that it would come back at some point but I'm not sure if it will. Our fathers ability is very strong to a point where where he can hear things that have happened where he is a couple hours earlier. For instance if he concentrated he could hear a conversation that happened in that room earlier.
We tend to not speak about these because no one seems to believe us however the members on this site have had these strange experiences before so I'm hoping they would. My gift always scared me and made me feel like an outcast and now its gone you would imagine I feel better but I don't; I just feel empty. I've tried meditation and other things to help find it but I cant, has it gone for good or is there a way I can get it back?
Based on my research it will take a really long time before you could have your abilities again. Just continue working on your meditation and focus on redoing the things when you still had your abilities maybe your body-spirit will remember it and it will come back to you maybe, a week, a month, months? Or year or two or worst a really really long time.
Just be positive, release and go join people who have positive energies. Never surround your self in the Negative ones for it'll worsen finding your gifts back.
Trust me, I've read a lot of articles concerning their experiences about having, developing or even losing their Gifts-Spiritual Gift or shall I say 'Psychic Abilities'
You can email me for further conversations (it's in my profile) , maybe I can help. I am good at researching, I'm always been researching about Spiritual Gifts and other stuffs related to Spirituality ever since my Spirituality has awakened and also, I'm still in the middle of developing my Spiritual Gifts.
