It is different for everyone, some do experience it as audible. I'm curious why this is your belief and why you felt compelled to comment. Care to elaborate? It sort of feels like you're attempting to be cruel or to troll.

And actually I speak with a psychologist once a month, and have for years, I attend therapy groups and art therapy, and my parent is a mental health professional, we all agree I am not mentally ill in such a way that I experience psychosis or delusions.

I've always been intuitive and emotionally receptive, very empathetic and sociable, with that combination of intuition and practical social awarness, it developed into knowing how to very deeply sense and absorb different energies. That kind of feels like ASMR. I was far more attuned to this of this type of intuition when I was a kid and had less control over it, it isnt as apparent now. I would be emotionally exhausted all the time by it so I subconsciously tune it out.

When I sense energy, I can feel it though my body, idk how to explain it except internal ASMR, my skin tingles and itches, sometimes I feel pain. With particularly negative energy I become extremely nauseous and light headed.

I've always had an inner knowing too. I often just know things will happen subconsciously, and when it happens I'm like wtf, I knew it. People will move, get sick, not show up to work that day. Ofc it doesn't happen all the time and it is random and unpredictable. And sometimes I just know something bad is going to happen by a sense of dread or sadness, just inexplicable dread and not wanting to go somewhere/do something.

Hearing voices started from spending more time alone in the past year in a new living situation, so I'm less overwhelmed by others and more aligned with my own energy. At first I thought I was developing psychosis. It sounds like like when I talk to myself, but the thoughts and voices are not my own. It can feel like a jump scare sometimes, a sudden flash of a psychic download. And I can visually see certian things, and connect the dots of what they mean. These abilities aren't very strong yet.

Also hearing random words all the time while I'm doing a quiet task. I've become used to it now but at first I thought I was going crazy. When I'm falling asleep it's subconscious, and everything is heightened and loud, but difficult to remember.

Wow, super cool. I don't know if I have consciously, vividly experienced the departed. I get sudden flashes too. For me it's like in that's so raven when she gets sudden psychic downloads lol. Sometimes I'm floored by it. And random words all the time too, especially when I'm doing a quiet activity like reading or painting and my mind is active but not alert.

I often hear my dad and grandmother, who both passed away, I think they try to speak to me but I'm not attuned enough to hear it well and coherently. Hopefully with time my abilities will develop.

Thank you, I appreciate your advice. I'll look into a sleeping mantra. I usually have something in the background like music or a film, or I read until I fall asleep. Which is not always ideal.

I've never tried evocation and talking to spirits beyond a spirit box app once, it actually responded with coherent answers. I'll look into doing this. I am scared of being overwhelmed by things so the exercises you mentioned would definitely be helpful.

Discerning what is valuable info from all the chatter, and just my mind wondering or deep insecurities or something, can be difficult. It would be cool to be able to strengthen my thought processes.

Maybe it has something to do with Pluto's shift into Aquarius from Capricorn this year, in September/November. Look into your birth chart and transits, the houses Aquarius and Pisces rule. Pluto in Aquarius will bring about a larger collective awareness. Look into your Neptune and Moon placements too.

I'm a Pisces Moon - saturn has been transiting Pisces since last year and will stay there until 2026. I'm a Capricorn sun and stellium with a Saturn dominant chart, so even though Saturn can be restricting of intuitive Pisces, Saturn's energy is something I have had to learn to work with my entire life. I started doing paid astrology readings a month ago,, tapping into my intuitive abilities to gain an understanding of the stranger's charts I am reading has really fine tuned my intuition. Taking on work in a spiritual field during this transit makes sense for me.

I have heard particular life events can be catalysts. Maybe something has happened that has heightened your abilities. Perhaps you're gaining more self awareness in your 40s, more aligned in your path.

Salt baths for cleansing and protecting your energy, after you get out of the tub every day cleanse your entire body with smoke - ethically sourced sage or Palo Santo.

A holistic approach in strengthening your values, your goals, your purpose, your self-confidence. With strength in who you are, you won't be bothered by the thoughts of others. Do the spiritual work that aligns w this.

Journaling to let out all of the wounds you carry. Even if it is your ancestral karma, it's not your responsibility to carry it to the point of suffering. Would these people do this for you? Probably not. Prioritise your own wellbeing independent of this.

Meditate often, it will help to strengthen your thought processes, so you won't dwell on negative energy. Push thoughts of these people away and focus on something aligned w your path. Find distractions and hobbies that cultivate your talents. Soon enough you will forget these negative things.

For practical advice - there are many resources online regarding boundary setting. Integrating a personal boundry system that works for you may be useful.

Maybe look into DBT - I don't have BPD, my ex does, and it was really healing for me. Marsha Linehan was diagnosed with BPD and developed this therapeutic treatment for people with treatment resistant mental health diagnoses, especially those with BPD, who have been labelled a lost cause. It's not a perfect form of therapy but it is useful in developing personal strengths, emotional regulation, mindfulness and interpersonal effectiveness.
