I am mainly looking for feedback from other adults on my experiences.
I have had dreams that come true, and I have "seen" things, but mostly I am wondering about Empathic qualities. I dreamed that my boy friend (in high school) had gotten another girl pregnant and she had a girl. He found out the next day. I dreamed that my brother came over to tell me he was gay. The next day he did this. I have known that I am awake, but am unable to move. I have woken up to find "people" standing around me. Most of this has happened when I was younger and have since lessened. I refuse to talk about my 'ghostly' experiences in my own home for fear of what it will do because every time that I had, something paranormal would happen. I now think that I may have unintentionally shoved my skills off due to my own fear.
I have only just begun to research being an this (empath) and see if I posses this skill. This is because my brother went to a massage therapist who also happens to be clairvoyant and she said I too was and needed to get a handle on things (they are in a different state and I have never met her). I then had my Akashic Records Read and it stated in there that I am an empath and also claircognizant.
I have, for most of my life, always said "I feel too much, or too strongly". Whether it be a movie or homeless person, I can feel the pain and loneliness like it just hit me in the chest. I have no control over it and I certainly don't choose to or feel like I pick up on people at will. I also get very overwhelmed in large crowds. I have thought for most of my life that maybe I have a "social phobia", but I am not 'frightened' of anything. It is mostly that I feel chaotic, like I need to get away where it is quiet. Or I will get very angry and can't concentrate. I like things quiet for the most part. I don't like to listen to music in the car, my tv volume is usually turned down so low that my husband will ask if I can even hear it. And at a few points in my life I have had normally quiet sounds sound like they are literally screaming at me. For an example just the sound of walking across carpet, something you normally wouldn't even hear, would be deafening.
One other thing I have noticed about myself is that odd things calm me. I take care of children and sometimes if I am watching someone play, with a quiet toy for example, I will get an overwhelming feeling of relaxation and happiness. It has also happened when I have watched my oldest daughter sweep the floor, or just playing by herself with her dolls. It is like someone drugged me with a sleeping pill. I also have strong feeling of sleep. The best way I can explain it is like something heavy and think is forcing sleep on me. It is very hard to fight off and sometimes I will just succumb to it and sleep.
I look forward to hearing your opinions and any similar personal experiences that are similar to mine.
