HELP & ADVICE for TELLING PEOPLE YOU'RE PSYCHIC
07/07/09 at 22:39:55
 
There is very little advice out there on the 'Net on how to tell your parents, family, and friends that you are experiencing psychic phenomena, whether you are uncomfortable and want it to end, or whether you are pleased and want to develop and control your abilities.

I know that some of you are worried about being harassed, or may have been harassed already. Some of you have worries that your parents will refuse to acknowledge your interest or experience. Some are even worried about whether they are mentally ill (schizophrenic) or will be falsely labelled as such.

I'll try to find some resources and help for you, and that includes the personal stories of people who have "come out" with their own psychic abilities and experiences.

It may sound contrary, but you may be interested in reading the stories posted in the thread I started on the paranormal forum, " Ever Been Harassed Cuz You "Talk to Dead People"?". You'll find that many have indeed been disbelieved, but it was nothing they couldn't deal with by being true to themselves, they stuck to their beliefs and are better people for it Smiley

PeeKS Group offers advise & assistance
Reply #2 - 07/11/09 at 12:39:32
 
Because there is very, very little information out there regarding how to "come out" as a psychic kid (as a matter of fact i found nothing when I googled it), I asked Gavin Harrill of the "PeeKS Group : Psychic Kids & Teens Support Group" for advise.

Gavin, ("Gavin Harrill, MA., Marriage & Family Counselor, Dad, Empath, Co-Founder") is a very warm and generous guy and wrote back that " --  clearly many many kids and teens are having psychic experiences, and could use some guidance and direction.  We are here for them whenever they're ready to reach out and ask for help! Assisting the kids talk to their parents about their experiences is where my marriage and family counseling and training comes in handy."

Gavin and his wife Andye Murphy ( psychologist, psychic and healer, and mother of a psychic kid herself  Wink ) admire the support and help that that "Anybody ..There" gives to psychic kids and offered to help with a little personal advise. Gavin wrote back: "The kids can contact us if they'd like some suggestions.  I need to hear a little about their psychic experiences, and a little about their relationship with their parents so I know the right words and the right approach to bring up the subject with mom & dad.
The kids can email me a few sentences, or they can call -- whatever's most comfortable.  If they want me and/or my wife Andye to be a buffer when they tell their parents, we can certainly work out the details."


Here is the contact info page for Gavin, Andye, and PeeKS:

PeeKS Group is very much for the little ones and for all the kids' parents too, sweetheart; their child is only a young'un herself  Smiley I am not sure but i think they do as much work with parents as kids because it must boggle the parents, too, when their child is "different", eh?

I am still gathering resources for my forums (always   Wink ),  and i think we have some peeps on this site who have stories but I think a lot  of 'em have never ventured in here yet - i'll ask them, too. I asked a handful of psychics who seem sincere for their advise, but some are quite different than their public images when it comes to being asked for a bit of advise, even for the sake of the kids, unless you are paying big $$$ Angry!!
John Holland's assistant says he is on tour but will get back to me when he is back, though  Smiley.

how do i tell my parents/friends?
Reply #6 - 07/03/09 at 21:11:52
 
as im growing, its getting harder to hide the fact that i have gifts around my parents and friends. sometimes, i'll say wat their thinking or feeling accidentaly, or ill be startled by a spirit or something and they'll just  give me a look like im crazy, or that their shocked or something.

i want to tell them that i can see/feel ghosts, that im slightly telepathic and very empathic.... but i dont want them to think im doing this for attention, or that im some freek/insane or super human or something. should i tell them? if so, how??

and i asked my parents subtly if they had any gifts, or that if anyone in my familly had any gifts, and they said no. a couple of my friends have some, but no where as near as me (except for 1, and she already knows cuz she's the same as me). 2of my friends can hear spirits and 1other friend can feel the prescence of a spirit.... if i tell them that i can do all the stuff i can do, they'll probably think im nuts. should i tell em or not?

Re: PSYCHIC TEENS, PLEASE INTRODUCE YOURSELVES!
Reply #7 - 08/01/09 at 07:57:22
 
I don't really have a lot to ask or type, but I do have a question.

I'm a psychic teen, soon to be 18. I'd really like to be able to talk to my parents about my experiences, but i can tell that they would be very skeptical about the whole thing and hard to talk to. more than likely force me into a church every chance i got thinking i was into witchcraft (which i'm not). I guess my question is, did any of you tell your parents, and if so, how and how did they take it according to what you thought would happen?

Punknface,

It's really good that you have some friends that are also psychic, do talk to them.  Not only would it be great to have someone to confide in, they are probably feeling just as scared and confused as you are.  I'm a musician, and even most of my friends are quite 'out there' enough to talk in depth about my abilities but most will accept the idea that it might be true.

I'm 27 and have only recently 'come out' but its still difficult.  But as long as you have friends you can talk to, and online support you'll be fine  Smiley

punnkinface, you have already used your gift and it has told you to proceed with caution. you subtly asked them and they used the big NO on you. one of the hardest things a psychic ever has to do is learn control of themselves. especially when it comes to blurting things out and or giving advice that may be true but isn't going to help.

you know how to meditate, you know how to find that quiet feeling that allows you to escape and feel the bigger picture, use that time to reflect and slow down. don't rush into any conversations until your sure.

I know what it is like to have psychic powers. I have them through dreams time to time. And I get mixed feelings. Makes it hard to think especially when you are going through alot of stuff on your own anyway. I feel for everyone and it is a challange for all that apply. My reguards go out to all psychics.

a good way to tell someone ur pshicic is to first know if they believe in the sixth sense, and make sure they have great trust in you so that when you do tell them you got more chance of them believing in you. When You do tell them make sure they understand clearly of the situation.

I think first you need to understand why you need to tell anyone. If you decide that you have to tell, then simple honesty is best. But be careful who you tell as some are not as open as others and may turn your decision to tell into a mistake.  
I think maybe some people look at their gifts as something of an amusement and if they tell the world then the world will be astounded and love them. It does not work this way. Your gifts are given to you by (God) and should be used as a special blessing to be shared with those in need...thats why we have them in the first place, to help, heal and guide. Pick and chose carefully who you pull into your world and share with. You don't always have to tell someone smething starting with I'm psychic...you can simply look at them and draw them into conversation and use the messege as conversation...ie: I am sure your father was proud of you and would have liked to be at your wedding...I know he has to be sad he could not walk you down the isle..etc... There are ways of doing it without causing trouble for yourself. This site is one place where you can scream that your psychic and tell all your experiences without being called names or attacked on the streets.

Not to be argumentative here lol but I feel there is a huge difference in how adults handle the information and how kids handle it. Adults will usually hear you and either ask questions or quietly think your nusts lol but kids...well they are a whole different breed. The can bully, pick on and isolate someone who they deem different. So before I tell anyone I would think about how it will effect my life with other kids.

Ive told people.
The wrong people
Ive told people who dont have gifts but have pysical problems that cause them to behave differently.

And theyve told me they relate to what i see.

So i find it hard to be honest about it without laughing it off.

I cringe when I think about telling people I'm psychic. Growing up I was called a liar. I pushed that part of me out of my life for a long time and then later as an adult I tried again to help people. I have got to say that besides the very few handful of people who listened to what I had to say that most people get angry. They do NOT want to know if something bad is going to happen. This just doesn't make sense to me. I mean I myself would like to be warned if something bad can be avoided. By the way, I tell them whatever info I have very tactfully so it's not my delivery of the information that upsets them but just the message itself. People don't want help.  Sad

Ok just wanted to add that i never told my parent about everything i expericend since i was a littler girl. They first heard about it when i was like 24 years old. They do remember things like me crying for no apparent reason and me to knowinh how to explain how i felt. It can be difficult for the parent and the kids. I have two of my own and if they one day will come to me telling they have a gift i will understand them. Today i am 30 years old and have a expirienced a lot of things, i am getting spitirually awake and going thru that process, i am also working on meditation! And wondering what is next ? Cheesy Wink Smiley whatever it is i am ready !

I don't understand the need some have to tell the world they are psychic. Being psychic is a part of each of us just as being female, being white or black, being tall, short, round or thin. We don't walk up to each other and say hello, I am 5'9'', white, female. We are what we are and others like us will already know how sensitive we are or are not. Just be yourself. Come to this site when you feel the need to share or find a group of like minded people to share with. Going out into the public and telling the world your psychic is opening a door that can not be closed again. In writing this I am IN NO WAY telling you to hide or be ashamed of being psychic. This is who you are. Accept it as a part of what makes you what you are, like having 2 arms and legs. You are whole and connected to a wider part of the brain and understanding. Enjoy it, use it and learn to grow with it. Just be careful not to set yourself up for hate and labeling. The world is still very one sided. If your different then you are abused and bullied for it. Don't bring that to your door. Give the world time to catch up with us.

I totally Agree with Falcon here .
I think those who are aware already can tell others in the same energy .. its not about telling anyone .. its about recognising who you are and mixing with others ..
I think its a personal road that everyone takes .. and I believe that some do it more quickly than others .. but the desitnation is the same ..  awareness ..

Give people the time and space and they will open up in time ..
