I have always been obsessed with the paranormal, scary movies that sort never messed with a spirit board or anything.. my aunt was murdered when I was 7 and still have dreams of her, my father in law commuted suicide 5 yrs ago which is when my anxiety went out of control didn't handle that good at all... but I'm starting to wonder if maybe the shadows I'm seeing and the odd feelings and spike in my anxiety might be spiritual?!! I dk rambling sorry sure it sounds crazy!!

I just was thinking what if all the anxiety I'm having is maybe coming from someone else, maybe my loved ones lost or just picking up on somebody else

Actually I think your post is quite brave of you. Going out on a limb about the supernatural to a large social audience isn't an easy thing to do. What we do know for a fact is that every human civilization that's ever existed has turned to something other worldly to explain all the things we cannot understand with our everyday mind. Thunder and lightning happened when the Gods were angry, sexual dreams were how a succubus tormented us, unexplained illnesses were a witches curse and the list is endless. What's important is the one thing they all have in common - Our need to understand something that has gone wrong with us so that we can avoid it in the future. Mental illness, pain and fatigue are all invisible and the causes for them are difficult to pin down, sometimes there are multiple factors. That you are considering everything that you know of as a possible cause of illness is just yourself being systematic and trying to eliminate one thing at a time. I went down this path myself and eventually I stopped looking at anything outside of myself and started to focus on what was happening within. That's when I really started to make progress.

Why would your aunt and father in law who have passed to life beyond want to make your life a misery? It doesn't seem likely to me.

Not that they would ever wish me harm just maybe the feelings they were having in their last moments

Anxiety has nothing to do with anything supernatural your mind plays tricks when you see shadows your mind could also be showing you things you want to see in your dreams

Dreams are like memories but those we do not remember i feel are those "dejavu" situations

Your anxiety spikes because of fight or flight response..

but good thoughts just not the slightest to do with paranormal :)

Many people might say that relatives who have gone on before are more concerned with protecting us than making difficulties for us.

So you ever talk to someone that knows what they are talking about with this stuff? It fascinates me too. I have mind blowing dreams at times

I have with a couple of people and they told me in a sensitive soul I get feelings of things but really never said it's affecting my anxiety that was just my own random thought.

in reply to Wyominganxiety

Me too it's very interesting, and honestly it's pretty hard to deny

I believe that when we dream of the dead they’re trying to contact us
