For years now I have experienced premonitions, seen spirits, deja vu, and visions. At first when I was a kid I blew it all off as my imagination and that it would just go away. As the years passed however I came to realize that there was much more to what I was feeling and seeing. Especially when I became physically ill at the age of 9 when my mom was being hospitalized while I was at school.
In the past six months my visions have picked up considerably to the point where I have come to realize that I am doing and saying everything that I had seen myself doing before. I have gone through entire days and even weeks realizing I had seen it before in a dream or in a vision while I was awake. I saw myself getting a job and losing it because I had countless numbers of doctors appts because of this so called gift frustrating me and giving me headaches. I have seen events from my college courses and what the outcome is. I am not at all enthusiastic about what I am going through to be honest.
I have gotten choked, scratched, my hair pulled by things I don't see. I have had ghosts in my home that made my life a living nightmare because they influenced my emotions.
I saw myself typing this even. I feel like I am losing my mind, I hear a voice in my head telling me what will happen and who is involved, what will be said next, what will occur. Never exact dates but they are close to when I realize they will happen. It's getting to a point where I feel like I am losing all control of my life. I absolutely fear my own thoughts and dreams, I get panic attacks and want to just huddle into a ball in a room with no windows so I don't go into my vision states.
I have smelled smoke days before wildfires, I have had dreams about natural disasters, I have seen planes and realized one would crash that day, and I have guessed down to the wire what someone would do and say. It is frightening and traumatic and I have never felt like this is a blessing. I don't know how to stop this and I just want to have some calm and normalcy in my life before I go completely insane.
I am so grateful I found this site. Thanks to everyone who has replied. I am not as strong a person as others and having opened myself like this and being accepted has been an enormous help.
I, like everyone here, have been through so many experiences that many do not understand. Years of going through this unfortunately does not make someone fully understand. If anything it is more confusing and traumatizing.
It seems like only the women in my family go through these things. The men never do and if they do, they just don't talk about it.
