So, this is going to be about the weird kind of psychic moments I have? Idk what to call them, I was wondering if anyone else had them and what it's like for them.
Baaaaaaasically, it's like I can tell the future. But not at command. I have absolutely zero control over it and sometimes don't even realize it's happened. It's very short and sweet (or pretty scary) and almost like a day dream. I get them confused often until what I "saw" happens moments/hours later.
It's maybe the same day 99% of the time now. When I was younger I'd see my classroom in an actual dream at night about a week or so before school started. It only happened for elementary school before grade 5 when they had us switching between a bunch of teachers in the day. I think it stopped because that was too much information to get. But I'd see all the kids in class and the posters on the walls. The name tags on the other kids desks, I'd see the teacher and everyone in there. I knew exactly where I sat every time. So I was allowed to skip the voluntary "orientation" before each year started because I didn't need to get a feel for anything, it already happened in my dream.
And my mom always understood and never forced anything because she's had similar experiences in her life. We've both experienced deja vu at a very high frequency. Almost a daily occurrence at worst, if not multiple times a day. We both get strong "feelings" about future events/ moments in time. In that collectively it'll feel as though something bad will happen. Or she'd know I was into something bad when I was out with friends as a teen and I'd suddenly feel like, oh shit she knows. When she'd be home in bed or at work, I wouldn't text about anything I was doing and she definitely wasn't hearing or seeing anything. She just had a feeling. And I could feel she had it. So I'd often get busted, 100% correctly, with zero evidence provided. And it always scared me to death lol
Our food cravings are also very connected. I'll be on the other side of the city and decide on something for dinner only ro find out the next day she got the same thing. This happens weekly. The point here is she understands well what I go through and her grandmother also was the same way. She'd call them in the morning or show up places when they were in trouble and NO ONE KNEW yet or contacted her. She just knew somehow. And this was obviously well before Internet and all that jazz.
So the women in my family have a bit of a history.
For me now... it's like I randomly think of or remember a memory. That's what it feels like. Only it hasn't happened yet. Then any time within the following 5 minutes to 12 hours whatever it was happens.
I'll think of a person suddenly, I'll randomly be reminded of them with no real trigger. Or I'll kind of see them in my head, like a memory but it hasn't happened yet. I am overcome with the feeling that a certain person will be somewhere we are going when no one has so much as uttered their name. Such as the time I KNEW an ex of mine would be at a bonfire that was decided that morning while I was at work. And as a surprise a couple of the guys there invited him without telling anyone.
I'll sometimes just have a very strong emotion that I'm acting on and it seems odd to everyone around me. But they'll eventually listen then in the news the next morning we hear that someone was shot/stabbed just moments after we left a location.
There have been occasions where I knew a customer (work at a restaurant ) would come in minutes before they'd stroll through the door. Everyone always finds it eerie. It's not a reservation restaurant, you walk in, get your food yourself, that kind. I'm just a cashier up front. So there's no warning for them and they are never regulars who show up at the same time every week. The last one this happened with I hadn't seen in almost a year. He went to the old restaurant I worked at. I suddenly remembered him and had a feeling he'd come in to this totally different restaurant on the other side of town. 2 minutes later he's coming around the corner and in the door.
I experience deja vu pretty frequently. But I haven't had this future sense in YEARS, maybe even a decade. Then within the last year or so it's started back up again. I'm not complaining, but it's definitely an adventure.
Am I alone here, and if not what's it like for you?
