Anyone had any psychcic exeperiences?

Anyone out there know who it is on the phone before you anwser or had weird feelings before bad stuff happens?

Sometimes I will have a dream and then maybe a week later something very similar will happen. That is slightly worrying as last night I had a dream that I crashed my car.

[magicdice]

statistically, it's bound to happen:

predictive dreams (my recollections from john allen paulos's innumeracy)

assume the possibility to be 1/10000 that a particular dream matches in a few vivid details some sequence of events in real life. also assume that this probability is independent of whether or not the preceding night's dream matched real-life events or not. so the odds of you having dreams that don't match real life over the course of a week is .9999x.9999x.9999x.9999x.9999x.9999x.9999 right?

so over the course of a year, it's (0.9999)^365

this comes to about 0.964. so that's 3.6% of the population who, over the course of a year, will have a dream that matches reality. population of the world: 6,500,000,000 so 3.6% is 234 million people. that's about 1/3 of the population of europe.

so yes, yes we do

On a couple occasions when I have phoned my mum, she has answered the phone without me even hearing the ringing tone because she had phoned me at exactly the same time. Not too sure who got billed for the call though.

Yes, bizarre, spooky, weird - they all happen to me so often that it's now a way of life. However I'd never claim to be psychic, I prefer to say finely tuned!!

Not really bad stuff but there's been a few times when i have the radio on & i'll be thinking of a song & it's the next song they happen to play or within a space of 10-15 mins the song is played.This has happened a few times.

I've thought of friends or relatives and then suddenly will hear from them. I feel a bit silly saying ..... I was JUST thinking of you ..... Yeah right!!!

Way back in the 70's my Mum & Dad were staying for the weekend. On the Saturday night I dreampt my Dad was laying in a pool of blood & my Mum was standing over him with her hands over her face calling his name. It was a terrible dream & played on my mind, but I obviously couldn't tell them.

The following Wednesday, my sister phoned to tell me that my Dad had been rushed to hospital with a burst stomch ulcer. My poor Mum thought he was going to die, as he'd lost so much blood.

When my sister got to the house, she said the bed was covered in blood. It was all over the bed, down the door & in the bathroom too. So I would class that as a premonition dream.

Other than that - like Robinia, I'm always having psychic experiences!

I dreamt my GCSE results when i was younger. I always have gut feelings, eg i'll think i should take something seemingly useless with me when i go out the house, then find i need it, i seem to know when someones gonna text me and who its from. I call it gut instinct and i always follow mine.

Last night I deampt my husband got beaten up in a pub (even tho' he rarely visits any - drinks indoors instead!)

I also dreampt that the house was on fire & there was an ambulance outside. I hope that isn't another one of my premo' dreams as there are two gorgeous little boys living there!

[smudge]

*sorry - that should have read: that 'the house opposite was on fire!'

[purification]

all the time! can sometimes know whose at the door or ringing etc.

Milly143: people may have a different opinion on this but just thought I'd add that a car in a dream is actually about dreaming about your life. If you crash it means you don't feel in control of your life. For example dreaming of someone else driving a car can symbolise that you feel controlled or can signify they're impact on your life and its journeys.

i do sometimes. For e.g i was doing work experience at these dog kennels, and the owner was telling me and a couple of others about this previous employee. he was trying for ages to remember her name, and in my head this name came to me. it turned out that was what she was called!

but afterwards i always think, hmm maybe i didnt think it really and just thort i did, if u understand me...

[Se7en]

yes

[butterfly23]

Yes, on numerous occaisions I have dreamt about things happening a couple of weeks before they occur. The dreams may not even be about people I feel particularly strongly about, so I have no reason to be thinking about them in the 1st place. Its a little uncanny, but I think its just to prepare me for the worst.
