Weird thoughts


Question Posted Sunday August 3 2008, 1:14 am

So I'm not sure this is in the right category but what ever.

14/f

So ever since I was in 5th grade weird things have happened. I fell like in a way I am what you could call "phycic" (how ever you spell it)

For example: In 5th grade one day, I was in school. During class I was thinking about there being a school fire or bomb threat or something and the cops would come etc. About 10 minutes after that class, there was a bomb threat in the 5th grade girls bathroom. The whole school was evacuated and the cops came etc.

When I was in 6th grade I was in the car with my mom and my brother, I was think about car accidents. About 5 minutes later we got into the biggest car accident in the history of the town. I got hurt and almost had to go to the hospital. I was the only one who was injured.

About 2 weeks ago, I was in the kitchen, but was busy doing something so never looked up. It was my cousins wedding day and she was having the wedding at my house. I was thinking about something tragic happening. When I looked up I started coughing because my kitchen was covered with black smoke. My mother came out and forgot there was pizza boxes in the oven and earlier turned it on. When we opened the over the boxes were on fire and our kitchen went up in flames.
There isn't really any more of the story needed.

I am really freaked out because weirder things and scarier things have happpend to me.

I don't know what to do.

Is there something wrong with me or is it all just in my head?

Do not be afraid, or belive there is something wrong with you, what happen's to you knowing something's before they happen is something that some people have, I have experience that myself and i was worried and afraid that there was something wrong with me, this is something that happen's to some people in life, i have problem's with my family seem's like they turn against me in a way of envying me falsefaying accusation's about, they have even attampted to kill me several times, they even sold me to a Hospital for body parts with out me knowing, i barely got out of it alive,we seem to be in two different world's belive me some warning's ahead of time have saved my life, and it come's to me like a voice with out sound inbeded in my brain, if this make's any sense, but this is the best way i can describe it, knowing thing's ahead of time has almost all the time been there for me like a warning, so use this as best as you can because it come's from you and not from a book, you can say you have a special gift in you're life, this could develope more knoweledgable in time, like i have develope the (DON) of healing and i know it is a gift in my life from our Savior Jesus Christ. If you feel you wan't to converse more just ask for me e-mail address, I give my approval, I would very mush would like to talk to you on this and try to guide you in the Spirit and faith of anoinment through our Loard The Savior.

I agree with Razhie and wanted to add a little bit to that answer in case you were still confused...

Physics is a science, and that does exist. Physics is a course you take in high school. That doesn't pertain to psychology, which is where psychics come in. It's easy to confuse the spelling of the two, and I didn't want you to be confused when you start taking physics classes.

I used to think that I was a little bit like you. Strange things like that kept happening to me... I'd have a dream about something weird happening and the next day it would. But I really do think it's all in your head. I think it's just coincidental... and that life has a funny way of working out. There are so many other times you sit there and think, "Hey, wouldn't it be weird if..." but those things don't happen most of the time so you don't think anything of it. That's why I think it's a coincidence when something that you thought about does happen... just because it's not a big deal when something you think about DOESN'T happen.

It's all in your head. Literally

Of course, I don't believe in psychics. psychics have been trying to prove they exist for almost 40 years, and to this date they have failed every single test that science has put to them. If psychics existed, they would be utilized by every police station, government agency and CEO in the world. They aren't, because they don't.

Having said that, your brain is a fabulously amazing little instrument. I've use this example to help answer another question recently, but I think it will help me to explain my answer to you as well:

There was an experiment done at a university where people were given two decks of cards, a red deck and a blue one. Each card either gave points, or took points away. The red deck was rigged to take points away more often then to give them, and the blue deck was rigged to give more points then it took away. The doctors wanted to see how long it would take for people to figure this out. It took about 80 cards for people to be able to SAY that the blue deck was better, but after only 10 cards, most people started to favor the blue deck and avoid the red.

So you see the brain had already figured out what was happening, AND changing the behavior accordingly in a almost a tenth of the time before the person could actually tell you what was happening.

So why were you aware of these things? It makes perfect sense that your brain noticed something odd on the road or strange in another drivers actions, before you were able to connect the thoughts together, and imagined an accident taking place. It is even more likely that your brain was aware of the smoke or burning smell in your home before you were fully aware of it, and conjured up a sense of impending doom to get your attention and warn you.

If you had an image of the cars before hand and could say that it would be an accident with 24 vehicles and 1 truck caused by a brown sedan that would be being psychic... but having a bad feeling, is just human, and it's totally natural.

Our brain takes in a lot of information that it decides isn't important enough to bother the conscious mind with. Bad feelings like you describe are often caused by information we are receiving in that non-conscious way.

The other explanation for doom-thinking is that you are human! In the absence of solid evidence the human brain will almost always jump to the WORST possible explanation. We spend a lot of time, just sitting around, imaging bad things happening. For instance, if you found a lump on your breast, at your age it's more likely a fatty cist or water cist, but that isn't what you'd think! Your brain would automatically jump to the worst case scenario: Cancer! Then you'd start imaging painful treatments and maybe your own funeral. That doesn't mean you are going to die! It would still be just a cist. That just means that doom-thinking is more interesting to our brains then thinking 'Meh, probably nothing. I'll make an appointment tomorrow. Let's go have pizza'

I'm sorry to burst your bubble but I do hope you will take what I'm saying seriously. There is no scientific reason, at all, to believe in ESP, but there are hundreds of studies that suggest the brain works in the way I've laid out.

according to the Bible, no one is psychic. maybe God is just giving you little hints to prevent something like this ever happening. next time you feel a strong feeling like that, tell someone immidiately. you may actually save someone's life.

Okay, so I have read everyones answer. Honestly, the bible does not say that there is no such thing as physics. It actually doesn't say ANYTHING about physics. It just says to stay away from people who do black&white magic, witchcraft, and all of that.

There are people who DO have the gift of having premonitions. My dad is one of those people. Doubt it or not, he really can see things happening before they happen. That is a gift from god as it states in the bible.

He gives that gift to certain people, so they can warn & help others of whats to come.

My dad was a preacher for 30 years, and I just personally asked him this question.
