I was recently diagnosed as mildly autistic, with a learning disability in math. I always knew I was a bit "different", I've always noticed things that other people don't. I am a highly intuitive person, and an empath. I pick up on other peoples' energy & feelings all the time. I attach meanings to objects. But ever since I was little, I've known I have a gift for extra sensory perception & predicting things. Like I'll think of something, & then a day or two later, it or something very similar will happen. I also can read people extremely well, just by feeling their energy & reading their expressions, sometimes even reading people's thoughts. I also can see events in the past very clearly, not my life, but other people's pasts, friends, relatives, etc..I think this is called being post-cognative. On a few occasions I have predicted things that have then happened, but my main gift seems to be being highly empathic. I have gone on ghost hunts & gotten very bad feelings from certain places we've gone, & other places felt nothing.
I have a lot of limitations & I sometimes can't put into words what I am thinking. But as I've gotten older I realize that I have gifts. I notice lights blinking, doors opening & closing by themselves, & seeing lights. And a couple of times I have actually seen spirits. I guess that is part of my "gifts". My mom has encouraged it & told me I shouldn't be afraid of it, but embrace it. I wonder if anyone else on here has similar gifts & are autistic? My friend told me I should just embrace it. Being an empath is definitely an advantage, sometimes it can be a bit like sensory overload, but as I get older I can't imagine not having it! I think I was born with my gifts because my mom has them too, although lesser, but I wonder too if it's a side effect of me having autism.
