Psychics - Believe it or Not?

[Deleted member 93]

I am shocked people buy John Edwards! But that is me. I really do not believe in it. I do believe in some experience though, just not ones that can be called on at will. I have had experiences but still can't entirely swallow it. I chalk mine up to being the twin brain. I knew and felt my sister's pain. My mom said I did it since a babe. Sis would get hurt and I was the one who had to be consoled. Still happens. My mom swears something of the sort goes on and I am ignoring a gift. Sorry I try hard to push delusions out of my head LOL.

I have freaked out and panicked to my husband something was wrong and something was "with us" before. I thought I lost it good that day. I would not let my daughter go yelling "you cannot take this one and leave". I was called a few hours after it happened that one of my grandfathers had died at the same time. Everyone else had bigger goosebumps than I.

I had the same sensations (why I freaked out the last time over grand dad) before when I lost my last child in miscarriage. My daughter was still an infant and no clue I was pregnant. When it happened I "knew" I was pregnant then. I took pregnancy test the same day. They were positive. My midwife was in shock with me it happened. I had such a bad presence feeling.

Ever since the horrible abortion I did musical toys would go off, always baby toys. I could hear Mozart playing... It was a lullaby I hummed to the other kids. While no one else heard the plain as day music many experienced toys always playing so I knew that was not me. Strangely enough after many prayers and moving it ceased entirely. It just stopped one day. It is one thing if things I only heard did, but the toys always going off stopped. That one everyone in my home went through. Things from balls on the play mat you spin for noise to the "engine" revving on the toy tractor. I still have many of the same toys here.

I have been dealing with something wierd that happened in my life in the past couple of weeks, so for those of you that I communicate with privately, sorry for not corresponding . I have been sooooo busy. I never believed in psychics or the like, but I personally had a sort of revelation and saw something/someone in a half sleep state. No I am not hallucinating and no I am not psychotic. Now I am in the middle of something that is very interesting and I hope to share and not be looked down on when this is over. I just wanted to share as much as I can right now. Which obviously is not a whole heck of a lot....lol. Be safe....T.

Hey, Portabella, I'm very interested in hearing what you have to share. I'm not going to judge you for sure, I've had enough of my own weird experiences. Just pm me if you want to know more :)

I know I'm a bit late but would like to comment.

While I believe there are "scammers" I have experienced some weird things which makes me believe that there is a "sixth sense" although the majority of us cannot or do not know how to utilise it.

One night I had a dream where my girlfriend came to me and stood in front of me, saying nothing, but her facial expression told me something was wrong and that she had 'given up' on something. I was concerned and rang her first thing in the morning (she lives on the other side of Australia so I had not seen her in months) to find up that her marriage was over and it had only ended that night - something she had been fighting to keep together for quite some time and she said she had finally 'given up' and couldn't do it anymore.

The other weird thing was my grandmother had problems with her veins in her legs and my mother called me at night telling me that grandma would be having a leg operation the following day. At this time I lived 4 hours (drive) away from where my grandmother lived. My brother lived 1/2 an hour away from me and I called him after getting off the phone saying that we should go and see grandma if we wanted to see her alive.......something inside me just told me she wouldn't make it. My brother called my mother saying we were coming up and she called me telling me to stop upsetting my brother and being silly. Well, my brother and I still went, travelling through the night as we decided it would be too late to leave in the morning. We arrived at 5am in the morning and at 7am got a call from the hospital to get there as grandma wasn't going to make it! Amazing and really weird!

Ok, this is not fair. I'm psychic and I don't charge a dime for the help I've given to others.

I'm not that good at it because I only began strengthening my abilities two years ago. I've had the ability to see into the future and communicate with spirits while dreaming since I was a teenager. I thought I was crazy so I blocked out the prophetic dreams, feelings, and visions I would see.

After I the grim reaper knocked at my door one night I thought "I" was dying. Finally, when I calmed down I tried to figure out what was going on and why I was feeling death all around me. I was worried about my son, and then my family. Once I checked out that everyone was OK, I remembered the last time I seen my ex he was looking pretty ill so I called his work and he hadn't been there for a week. I called the hospital and he was on the oncology ward. I went to see him the next day. He died 4 days later. I feel this was no scam, I had no way of knowing he was going to die because he looked sick the last time I seen him.

When I felt death I didn't know who it was that was going to die, and that part I had to figure out on my own because my abilities were not developed at that time. My abilities along with every one else that have them, have to practice and learn to get it right. It takes time and practice.

Some times I see this as a gift and other times I see it as a curse. Either way the experiences I've had can not be explained by anyone or myself. All I know is that I see and know things that come to be reality.

I'm a member of dream groups and medium/psychic groups and some of the people I've talked to knew things about me they had no way of knowing. I went there to ask for help in strengthening my abilities and have learned a great deal from other psychics, and no one has ever asked me for money.

Judging people who are different is unfair and hurtful. Just because I can't see the wind doesn't mean I can't feel it, and it doesn't exist.

Actually I see nothing unfair about it. We have all agreed that there is a small percentage that do not rip off or scam others. We have also stated that the majority do rip off and scam others.

So you fit into the small percentage. That is unfair? Also no one has made personal judgments against you. If I am skeptical and don't believe in it.. that is my choice, my beliefs as it is for every one on this forum. This has nothing to do with you personally. I am not judging you, nor is anyone else.

If you feel that this thread is judging you, is hurtful and unfair, I would recommend you look towards your sense of self and self-esteem on this subject. You see to be low on self-confidence where your spiritual beliefs stand. No matter what you believe, it is not wrong.

Well part of the 99% of scammers happens to be my mother. She charges $30.00 for a tarot reading and sees angels that talk to her.

Yeahhhh, right.


Anyways, you'd have to be something awful ****ing special for me to believe it. I do believe there is more than we can see, but I think 99.99% of the population is completely full of shit about it too.

Your post made me smile.

But, yeah, I pretty much have to agree with the board here. The very rare person may have some ability that may be labeled psychic but, for the most part, I tend to view claims with suspicion and, at times, derision. I met a fellow once who told me some stuff that blew my mind but I'd say it's an extreme rarity.

Nice to see you again Erryyn.

Glad it made you smile!

I wasn't saying it is unfair to "me" because I don't care what people think about me anymore. However, I know some people who do get upset over this, and I feel bad for them when other people go around claiming they don't believe in psychics and they are scammers, but yet these so called disbelievers can give some real descriptive examples of unexplained things that happened to them.

Oh, but wait, I will make an exception for John Edwards! One minute it's, "I don't believe" and the next minute "Well there was this one time I had an experience....."

I feel that there is a lot of contradiction with what one is feeling and refusing to believe within themselves out of fear of finding out the truth. If one was to do more accurate research, one would find out that there are just as many people that don't charge as the ones that do. I've done research.

Also, I feel it would be unfair if some one came onto this forum and said, "I don't believe in PTSD because I was in a car wreck or raped, and never had any symptoms of it". Now I believe this would be hurtful to alot of people here, and some heads would turn. I bet the post would be deleted immediately even though that person has the right to their own opinion. I would make the same comment on that, just like I did on this issue.

I don't have much of a problem with my self-confidence anymore, and I think maybe you were projecting, by misreading what I wrote. It wasn't just about "me", it was about everyone as a whole. I was just giving example of what has happened to me while trying to defend those who are not strong enough to take the criticism.

rob your not nuts, I believe you.

I'm not trying to argue, just make a point bec.

I am not everyone, which is what you just lumped me into and anyone else you feel disagrees with you. I did not say I don't believe either. I said I believe 99% of them are scammers. Also you have NO right to tell me what I can or can't believe in and then say well it's just because you fear it, nor I to you. You have no idea why I believe what I do and frankly it's none of your business.

Stating what my beliefs are, is not criticism. I have a right to them just as much as the next person whether it fits into your beliefs or not. If someone didn't believe in PTSD, then why would they be here? It's not our problem if they believed it or not. Quit attempting to make your beliefs my problem or anyone else's.

We have a right to disagree here.

I think you should really look towards yourself here and admit to what is really bothering you.

Single me out again on this.. and I will be much more blunt.
