Anyone who knows about things along the lines of auras, psychic ability- whatever - answer please?

Question

I know I'll get a thousand answers telling me I'm making it up, bragging, or the anti-christ- if that's what you're about to say, SHUT UP, don't even read further.

Anyway.... SORRY about the wording, I don't really know how to describe this.... I've never heard of it before really.... And people, it's REALLY HARD FOR ME TO TALK ABOUT, I really NEVER have before....

Ever since I was really young, I kind of like, ABSORB other people's emotions. If I'm standing in a room, everyone else's emotions and feelings are automatically imposed on me, even if they aren't showing it, and even if I'm not paying attention to them specifically. Like.... I was in the emergency room a few nights ago (I was just sick), and wow, it was SOOOOO overwhelming. I felt everyone's mental pain in my head- even before I even looked around- I just felt it. It's ALWAYS like that. Not the simple "aww, I feel your pain" thing you tell your friends, obviously. Being in high school was the worst, ya know. Being in a classroom full of hormonal stressing teenagers. Having a room full of 35 teenagers' feelings being imposed in my mind- well, that (and my social anxiety) is exactly why I ditched almost every single day of Freshman year and then started home schooling.

I've never even heard of this before, which is what makes it hard....

And it's a TERRIBLE burden!

I've hardly ever been happy in years, ya know.

Is there a name for this? How can I get help and how much cash will it run me?

I just need you to tell me ANYTHING AT ALL.... I'm desperate.

Its called Empathy, it is difficult to deal when you first get it particularly if your as powerful in this as you sound, I would suggest spending time on your own, completely on your own with no tv sounds or music or whatever and just sit, regulate your breathing by imagining breathing with the a tide (visualise it) breath in through your nose when it goes out and out through your mouth when it comes in, do this slowly for at least ten minutes and see an orb of light surrounding you protecting you, tense yourself just before this and as you imagine the light expanding and thickening around you feel each part of you from your head to the tips of your fingers and toes relaxing. Also get focused with the power, force the feeling out imagine your actually pulling them out of you this does take practice, also keep doing the light thing making it bigger everytime protecting you and pushing all negative things away. Focus on certain people, even when your on your own look at a picture as a focal point relax yourself empty of all other thought, if you find this hard fix on one thought like the colours in the picture if you can feel their emotions dont let them take over, make sure your calm and imagine their emotions are seperate from you but you still being able to feel them. then try this with people there, seperate the figures by working out who is who make yourself calm, the breathing with the tide thing is the quickest way to do this, you'll still feel people but it will become less noticeable over time, do it with a few people to start out. Often empaths have a purpose, someone to help, when you can learn to seperate the emotions you'll know who needs help and you will be more able to give it to them. If it does go away for a while and you want to acess it then try to focus on someone, the easiest way to do this is to concentrate on how that person makes YOU feel about yourself, happy, angry etc. Ocassionally you might have somthing jump out at you if someone is feeling something very strong this is normal so dont panic, like once i felt someones anger burning me and whenever a certain friend is ill i feel it, dizzinessm headaches the lot, its not fun but you can reasure them, understand better and learn to cumminicate better with them. Your friendships will grow because of it, trust me, i wouldn't advitise what you can do though, dont push the gift out when you do it does build up on you!

Answer 3

serach extrasensory perceptions. there is a website about it but the one i go to doesnt have much. Ill need to do more research.

Answer 4

Answer 5

It sounds like you are an empath.

http://lightworkers.org/blog/37471/empat...

It will help you to learn how to ground and shield. If you start looking up the word empath, you will see that there are a lot of people like you, who can relate to what you are going through. The key is to learn how to control it and to shield yourself from taking it in so much that it upsets you.

Here is some information on grounding and shielding:

http://www.realmagick.com/articles/65/19...

http://healing.about.com/cs/uc_directory...

http://www.spiraloflight.com.au/index.ph...

It will be a lot less unsettling once you learn how to control it and protect yourself.

It can be a curse or a gift, it is up to you. By acknowledging it and taking care of yourself, it makes it less of a bad thing.

BTW, seeing auras is great and all...it's cool to see them but doing this on a regular basis can cause damage to the eyes. I speak from experience.

Answer 6

I don't know what that is, but I do know that it's possible to pick up on others' emotions through smell.  When you feel a certain emotion, you release chemicals called pheromones which can let others know subconsciously what you're feeling.  If you're really desperate, maybe you could try a perfume to mask the presence of those pheromones.

Answer 7

Yes you are an Empath. My partner is one too.

Yes it is a burden and you will become depressed - that's usually what happens.

This usually happens when one (or more) of your chakras are too open.  You can try meditation or buddhist techniques to control this , or use other shielding techniques to restrict what you get and when you want to.

I will send you a PM about a site where you can discuss things freely without ridicule. Join the free forum, and post confidentially. The site has many authors from around the globe, and you will be among people with similar talents.

Answer 8

Hi Miranda. So I've learnt something from you. That we are called empaths. Most of your answers are telling you that you have a gift. So don't look a gift horse in the mouth. If you are experiencing the negative aspects you can be sure that there are also positive aspects and you're just tuned in wrongly. Take care to learn how to get all negativity out of your mind. It isn't so hard. Just takes practice and techniques. Then you can use your gift positively. You may have healing abilities for instance. Why worry?  

First step for you is to pray. You have to acknowledge how God wants you to develop your relationship with Him in this lifetime. You have to ask Him what He wants of you and how He wants you to use this gift. You have to surrender to what He wants and not try to resist.

This could lead you into any number of techniques that may help you or it may lead you directly to your particular use that God has for you.

To ready yourself for this and to become stronger in your Aura you can go to professional Aura cleansers and Cakra balancers. If your aura is damaged then everything gets in even if you don't want it and it makes you feel really crazy. I know. It happens to me. I and other friends have been to these kind of therapists and got a lot of help. Auras can be damaged by violence, by accidents, by drugs and many other things. Keep reading about auras and cakras and learn how to strengthen your own. The navel chakra in particular needs to spin properly so as to not 'let things in'.Therapists use crystals as a tool so you can learn about them too and get yourself some really powerful ones which are good for you. Clear Quartz is most popular but you can wear large pieces of certain crystals like Black tormalene to protect yourself from outside influences of all kind such as mental or astral or psychic. Speak to a crystal healer who is very sensitive toward you. You can further strengthen your Aura and protect yourself by using or getting any kind of alternative therapy like massage, acupuncture, acupressure and reiki. Being a vegetarian will also help you to understand spiritual matters. Get aquainted with the science of the soul. Read eastern religion like Bhagavad Gita. Chanting of God's names as a mantra will help you to develop spiritual insight and focus your mind.

Go ahead and accept God's calling you. Pray.

Answer 9

Ok. You are not crazy and surely not alone in this. There is a thing like aura. It's essentially the energies surrounding a human body. There is  technique called Kirilian photography. Using a special camera, you can actually take a photograph of your aura. Search on the net about this, you will surely find something. A distant aunt of my wife had one such camera and my wife has a photograph of her aura.

Sometimes people have this tendency to absorb auras of other people. It's a good thing. You are special. Ty to use it the right way.

All the best

Answer 10

People who feel other peoples emotions telepathically like to call themselves 'empaths'.

Personally I think you can only work out how people feeling in ordinary ways, like observing their body language for example and you don't need to have any unusual abilities to know that people are going to feel anxious in an emergency room.

I think the stress that you describe feeling at school is your own stress, it kind of sounds like your attributing your own emotions to other people.

Because this is the 'alternate' section a load of people will probably tell you that you have a 'gift'. Why not try and get a balanced opinion and ask in maybe the medical and social sciences areas too?

Edit

I'm sure you're not crazy but maybe you have some sort of anxiety disorder.

Answer 11

hope that helped!

Answer 12

Honey, do not listen to the jerks that you already know are going to reply. They are only scared of what they don't understand that's why most un-believers don't believe. I don't have an answer for you but I can try to cheer you up some. You are a wonderful gift from god and for one reason or another he knew that you were the one who deserved this gift! It is up to you to learn how to use it properly. He gives you the tools, you just need to do the work. Sounds kind rough huh? But just trust me he wouldn't throw anything at you that you can't handle! You will learn how to use your gift for the better and everything will fall into place exactly how it's supposed to.  You are very lucky, you have a gift that some people wish they could learn.  Everything will fall into place with time. Just let the days take you where you are supposed to go.

Answer 13

You sound like an extreme empath.  Look that up on the internet.  "Empath," "Empathic"....

I know because I'm one myself.  Not as extreme as you, it sound like, but extreme enough to have caused 28-years of grief.  A psychic just told me I was.  Since I learned about it, it's such empowerment.  I feel more centered than I've felt in a long while.  It's like getting a long-awaited diagnosis or something.  

Once again today I began getting nervous and awkward for no reason, but then I realized it was my shy boss that was nervous.  lol  And I immediately calmed down.

Answer 14

I kinda understand, at least the not crazy part. sometimes, when I get very upset or angry electronics act all screwy and do weird things. also my mom will point the channel changer at me when I am in the other room, no where near the t.v and it will work. I also seem to make bugs act weird when I move in to a new place , not only that but the amount and variety of bugs will go up by a lot anywhere I live, and I get a lot of albino bugs. I am like a bug zapper or something. I looked it up and other people have this too. so more then likely there are people like you. I think I came across the word empath when looking up my thing so I would look into that if I where you. Also are you a Cancer? that would add to your empath symptoms. you may have to train yourself to block them out some how. I hope this helped and good luck :)
