Hello All,
I joined the site a while ago, but I completely forgot about it after my car accident. (Thanks to Karen for reminding me)
Here's everything you need to know about me:
Name's Kirana, or Kira for short
21 years old
Florida, US
I first discovered my abilities about three-four years ago when I moved into a college dorm. I guess being around that many people caused a bit of an overload on the senses. It started with just being able to feel all their emotions, and it turned into something I could barely handle.
Thankfully, I met someone who showed me how to control it and how to develop the rest of my abilities.
I'm an empath, as I said. Probably been doing it since before I can remember but it took being surrounded by a few thousand people for me to recognize I was doing it.
I'm also clairvoyant at times. Nothing big like knowing what's going to happen in two weeks. Just little things here and there, usually only a few minutes before they happen.
I don't know what you guys would call it, but I can also sense a person's presence within a couple hundred yards of myself, just knowing someone is around before I hear or see them. With people I've known for a long time, like my brother, I can actually pick out their location in a crowd.
I can also get a feeling of how powerful a person is when they're not shielding themselves. One of my closest friends literally gives off waves of energy that I can sense, and he has no idea he could be a powerful psion.
I do have a bit of a problem with shielding, and if anyone wants to offer some advice, I'd be very grateful. I can easily create a shield, a strong one that keeps most people from even realizing I'm there. (Scared a lot of people like that. They didn't notice me until I spoke)
But it takes a lot of concentration and effort to lower the shield. I seem to raise it subconsciously, probably a habit left over from before I realized I was an empath to keep my mind from being overwhelmed.
Any ideas on how to make it easier to lower the shield? I'll post the question on the shielding forum, too.
Thanks everyone, and it's good to find a place to talk about all these things for once. My family and friends would just look at me like I was crazy.
