My name is Jason, I am 19 and a few things have happened over the years that make me think I may be a medium, psychic or empath I just don't know but definitely something though.
My entire life I have always been able to "feel" people; I don't mean physically. When I am near people I can feel their emotions, the pain, their happiness or sadness, if they regret things, if they are uncomfortable, if they are sick, etc. I don't know how I do it. I just do it without even realizing it really. Since I grew up with it, it kind of is like walking to me; easy. I asked my dad about it once and he said that he can do it as well, not as well as I can but he can to a certain degree. It certainly helps with being around people because I can 'feel' if they need me around or want me to leave. People always say I know exactly what to say and when to be there (or not).
I have a very close friend that I have known for more than three quarters of my life. She has since moved away and lives over 700 miles away. We keep in contact and talk almost daily via the internet or phone or whatever. I can taste things she eats, smell things she cooks, get cravings that she has, feel when she's upset, anxious, mad, happy, anything. Last week she had an anxiety attack and I had one as well. I know it was linked to her because I was lying in bed relaxing and meditating and all the sudden had an anxiety attack. I instantly called her (I am used to trusting my intuition by now) and she said that she had got nervous in class and freaked out.
One night I was talking to her online and I was home alone. I distinctly smelled peanut butter and tasted it in my mouth, to the point that my mouth started watering even though I didn't have any PB in the house. I thought it was a weird craving so I typed it to her and told her right away. She said "Are you serious? I just put a spoonful of PB in my mouth." This is just one instance and this has happened several times.
I have other experiences that are more psychic/medium related and I will post those in a different post so this isn't too long. Thanks for any help.
