i am a very empathetic person, too. except, i haven't learned to shut it off when need be. it's very frustrating when you can't control it. i'll be in a really good mood and then, someone will walk in and they are angry or depressed. i end up angry and depressed also. i'm always hearing the question, "what happened? you were fine a minute ago." explaining it is even harder cuz some just think it's ridiculous.

when it comes to telepathic skills, i can relate more to cappygolightly. some i have a connection with, some i don't. but some have even made it a practice to see if they can sneak up behind me, to see if i can "feel" them coming. 99.9% of the time, it doesn't work in their favor! LOL!

I have much of the same empathic feelings. They are sometimes so strong that I feel drained of energy and cannot muster up the energy to go out into the world--even to just go down to the supermarket. I am terribly shy especially in new situations because i tend to pick up alot of information about people sometimes i am so bombarded with information i can get a million thoughts within a short space of time. It's so uncomfortable to receive such intense sensory overload. I haven't not been able to master this--instead it is mastering me--i often feel very shy, i don't make eye contact with people, i try to shun away from attention all the time because it makes me so uncomfortable. I would be walking with a bunch of people and people always stare at me ---both males and females---and then i end up thinking that something must be wrong with me. I usually get attracted to people and want to connect with them but i find it difficult to do because people always stare at me--i feel connected to them sort of like i owe them something and sometimes i get unsure of what it is they want from me or i should be doing! Please help it's driving me crazy and no one else seems to understand at all--they all think i'm crazy. But try as i might i cannot turn it off--and it makes me so unsure of myself. It's scary the way people are drawn to me though and I am drawn to certain people. Take for example the guy i am involved with--all logical signs indicate i should move on--but i always am drawn to him--i always feel his pain and empathize with him. Logically it makes no sense! And i am quite good at cutting people off--done so in the past without a backward glance---about to do it to my best friend. The strange thing is I cannot for the life of me --read him i just cant. I'm not sure if it's a block --but his essence is almost unreadable. I have no trouble reading others but him --it's difficult!

If you can feel peoples feelings & emotions like they're your own you're an empath. You'll know.
If you're hearing thoughts & voices in your head that aren't your own. You're clairaudient. You'll know.
If you're having visions, seeing movies play in your head, & seeing pictures. You're clairvoyant. You'll know.
If you get strong gut feelings or physical feelings. You're clairsentient. You'll know. Sorta like womans intuition or your "spider-sense tingling". lol

If you think you might be some of these. You probably are. People who aren't don't think about it. lol If they're interested in the metaphysics it's usually because they're trying to make sense of some type of experience they've had.

PM me about some of your experiences. I'm interested in hearing about them. Maybe I can help and/or point you in the right direction to get some more info on what's been going on with you. Many people are waking up to the natural abilities humans have forgotten how to use. We need to help each other. It can be lonely & scary when you don't have anyone to share these experiences with.

when i'm alone, i usually feel a deep sadness all of a sudden out of nowhere and i just start crying and i can't breathe.
i start feeling that someone is either hurt and crying. what is that called? happens a lot to me.

and before, i usually get feelings of car breaking down. it happened 3x and it turned out true.. then there was a time
i felt like someone choking me. and another time, i tried stopping a boyfriend and some friends in going somewhere because i have an odd feeling something bad was going to come down, which it did, we got into a car accident. good thing no one was hurt. usually those things. and there are times i'd just wake up because i feel that my baby would be bitten by something which almost happens too before i stop it, usually a cockroach or other insects. odd things like that.
