Do any of you feel like you have a 6th sense?

I feel like I do about my new medication. I have this strange feeling that this is going to be the one for me...

I hope you are at least a little psychic:) good luck with it

I think I might have a little bit of a '6th sense' but I'm not sure exactly how it works, so its still useless for me... right now at least

I pray your 6th sense will work for you...

I just keep telling myself that this is the medication that's going to work for me. I'm even doing the unusual and not reading in on side effects because I don't want to get what I read.

i don't have a 6th sense . . . i wish! I think I am an empath, though. . .

(Good luck, Andy!)

Thanks Courtney. I sure hope it's a 6th sence and not just a hope. I keep feeling that this will work for me.

I usually think I have a 6th sense but it turns out to be paranoia.

I have a 7th and 8th, but not a 6th. Dunno why, but I skipped the 6th. By that I mean that I don't see dead people.

Best wishes with your new med, I hope it's the one. The trial and error factor stinks.

Oh, and I have what I call "feelers" or antennas, that activate when something just ain't right. It's quite a funny sight, actually! Haahaa!

Let me get all weird and give yall food for thought about 6th senses and telepathy....

Imagine if people could communicate telepathically. Not words transmitted by brain waves instead of sound waves, but actual clean telepathy where communication is completely language free. That would be great because language is so mediocre at explaining how you feel, ya know? Where a picture is worth 1,000 words, I'd imagine telepathy (if it were possible) to be pure, instant transmission of what you want to convey exactly how you want to convey it. I don't believe in telepathy at all, but it's a fun idea to toy around with. As a kid going to Sunday school learning the story of the tower of Babel about how God fuzzed up the languages because people were much too cooperative and did things to reach God and be Gods, always made me wonder what really happened (if true). Even as a kid I was very skeptical that this was the moment in history where people would go from speaking a single language to speaking English, German, Japanese, French etc... But, it didn't make sense to me at all because even at that young age I realized that people in Britain spoke different english than people in America, and that books written in English 500 years ago was really different than the English of today. So, the evolution and natural progression of language just made it hard for me to believe that languages just appeared one day out of thin air.

I didn't give it that much thought until much later when I asked myself "Hmm, if this tower of Babel story was really true and God really did fuzz up the languages... what if it's not actual spoken language that he fuzzed up, but instead he removed that capability in our brain capable of "telepathizing" with others? Huh, waddya think? Isn't that like, totally freaky food-for-thought?? Even if you don't believe in any of that stuff, it's a kinda fun idea to ponder.

And then it makes you wonder... what if our '6th sense' that people sometimes report is just a remnant of capabilities we had a long time ago (in a galaxy far far away, of course)? And, why is it that animals seem to comprehend each other so well with little to no sounds while humans are so pathetic at it? There's body language, yeah, but that only goes so far for communication, right?

Spooky

Gosh, Pedal, that is really an interesting idea, and I kind of like that, I will be rolling that one around. I mean, we have sooo much more capacity neurologically than we will ever use, so perhaps at one point, the powers that be said, you silly humans are too smart for your own good, and zapped a lot of that capacity away, and as you said, those inklings, mother's intuitions, 6th senses, whatever are vestibules of what once was for us as a race.

It's just not right that animals seem to understand so much more than we do about each other, emotionally and otherwise, and how their senses are so much more heightened to where it is so natural for them to be able to detect cancer and know when seizures and heart attacks are coming from their humans, and the elephants know the bones of their own ancesters over others, and we can't tell squat.

We call ourselves smarter.............
I guess it depends on what you call smart?!

Yeah, isn't that crazy? A month or two ago I remember a story about a stray cat who became a permanent fixture in the terminally ill section of a hospital. The cat would walk around the halls and go room to room doing its thing. And everytime it layed on a patient's bed, the patient always died within 4 hours. The cat stayed with the patient until it died. Isn't that freaky? It just 'knew'.

And then just this morning I heard on News Radio that there are dogs that can detect when their Diabetes-suffering owners have low blood sugar. This was a trained behavior though, but hey, maybe Dog Telepathy is through the nose ;)

But hey, telepathy *does* exist, cause check this out: my SO can totally tell when I haven't taken my meds! Scratch that, my dogs probably can too lol

Yes, it's through the nose. It must be that chemical changes and differences in live bodies must cause an odor that somehow animals are keen to and recognize. We call it freaky, but it is just so natural to them. Cool about grim reaper kitty! Good thing we have at least an understanding of that aspect and can train animals to help us out in our weaknesses!

And, I think kitties are the wierdest about 6th senses. What the heck is it they look at yowl at endlessly that is up in the corner of a room????? Kitties are just freaky.

Yup.

I've gotten odd feelings about people and particular situations, which turn out to be correct. Odd thing is sometimes I'll get a funny feeling about a situation and really have no idea why, then something happens.

Doesn't happen on a regular basis, but when I get the feeling, I'll pay attention to it.

I know my cousin has a 6th sence. He must have alien antennea, because when I or my brother go on the computer, even when the shades are down and there's already light in the room, and he's outside, he seems to come rushing in within 5 minutes.

The cat may be using its existing acute senses, like the dog. However I know there is more.....much more...an area that conventional science cannot probe because the sensors lie deep within our brains

Telepathy does exist, my daughter had a telepathic experience at a very young age, far too young for what she said to have any other explanation.

This means 2 things

1) The brain has abilities beyond those we know
2) A spectrum and/or type(s) of energy exist we currently have no inkling about, no sensors, no hints..nothing has shown up in existing science at all.

If we think about what (2) means......its a little bit scary and most people don't want to go there.

I have been very interested in this 6th sense thing. My mother has "known" something was going on with me when my car was hit (I wasn't in it) and she woke up freaked out and worried. I didn't live at home at the time either. This is just one of the things I remembered as being weird and wondered "How did she know that". Now I find myself having those same feelings. Its scary though because you really don't know what it is until something happens and then it "Hmmm" and the feeling is gone. For me the feeling builds and builds and then.....
Kinda freaky when you feel it and nothing has happened though. Makes me very untrusting. (This is how I found out stuff with my H)
I discussed this with our counsellor and he said its just because I am so in tune with my H that I can see a slight change and then that feeling builds etc. I guess it could be that, but not with some of the other things I have felt with not even really knowing a person.
I like your theory better pedal and your #2 kilt!

Do any of you feel like you have a 6th sense?
I knew you were going to ask that.

Here's a spooky 6th sense thing that happened to me...

I was 25, and had to this day never had a dream with my grandfather in it. One night, out of nowhere I dreamt of him. It was totally out of the blue because I hadn't recently talked about him, and hadn't seen him in about a year. The next morning I got a call from my mom saying grandpa had passed.

The coincidence really spooked me out.

Hey People.

Let me tell you a thing or two about sensing stuff.

Just this Monday gone I asked a friend how he was after getting a text message a day before saying he was stressed!...he says "Yes all's fine"...I knew differently and I even knew what the problem was before I was told, I find the older I get the better this gets and it can be scary...no I'm not psychic nor do I speak to the dead but my intuition is at times strong and spot on and right now I have a gut feeling about a few things but I have to wait and see if I'm spot on again!!:cool:

In my experience when I have an intuitive or 6th sense type feeling, it's usually persistent and I find when I try to challenge it for example by telling myself that this event's not going to happen I get this really sick feeling...almost like a part of me saying "Don't be silly, of course this is going to happen" and I've also found that I can sometimes get these feelings well in advance before the event occurs.

Pedalpounder: Dreams can sometimes let us know what's about to happen before it actually happens.

"Intuition" and suchlike unexplainable awareness phenomena come unde the heading Psi

In my view there are 3 types of psi experience

1) Experiences that could be entirely manufactured by the brain eg the feeling that "someone" is pulling your bedclothes reported in some hauntings. This does not depend on any new physical explanation to be explainable

2) Experiences that cannot be self-manufactured in ones brain, cannot be explained by the laws of physics yet do not break the fundamental laws of time and space. My daughters experience falls into this category as she sensed and communicated with my mother over a hundred miles away as if by radio.

3) Experiences that do not fit (1) and (2) above and consequently break the fundamental laws of time and space as we currently understand them. Second sight would be a prime example of this.

The reason (2) and (3) are regarded as unlikely is the difficulty of documenting them and replicating their occurence in experimental conditions.

As far as I can ascertain examples of (2) above do occur but cannot happen "on demand" it is almost as if both "sender" and "receiver" must be tuned in to each other and the concious mind "tuned out".
