I just joined this forum a few minutes ago so I'm new on this forum.
I want to ask you some question about some problems I have.
Sometimes I feel some feelings that it's not normal for me to feel them, but others may feel them about me. For example when I flied by the plane I was not affraid and I'm not affraid of flying but I was feeling that somebody is terrified about me, he had the fear that I can dye in a plane crash and he feels mercy about me. It might be someone from my family or I just might be crazy.
Other problem: I have read some meditation books (I can't remember too much thou, it was long time ago) and when I meditate concentrating on my respiration I am starting to hear voices.
I have read a book "Mind Power Seduction" by Amagi Hiller and I applied it with the hottest girl in my faculty and I think it worked because I've been on some dates with her but that's another story. The fact is that I know that I have the ability to do some things with my mind, but I know I might be crazy too.
What do you think?

Hi
What you are probably feeling is other peoples emotions and no it's not crazy to do this. As for feeling crazy at 22, that's quite normal also

when we have a talent, skill or ability it is important to get information and find a good teacher/guru to aid the process, while we practice hone our own abilities.  Finding a group or teacher to sit with in meditation for development will aid the process and help you know more about what is happening.  Knowledge is power - the more we know, the less we feel crazy for the ability.

It would appear there is some empathic abilities going on - just learn to examine all things in your world - then you will know on which level they belong - the material or the psychic/sensitive.

We cannot 'make' anyone do anything - with our mind or any other way.  We can draw attention to ourselves and our intents by our mind power - the only person you will ever change is YOURSELF.

Well, some things you described are similar to what happens to me quite often.  I'm empathic as well, and I've had moments where for some reason I just started feeling very depressed, and not understanding why.  Later on I found that someone around me was feeling very depressed.  

What I suggest for your meditation is to research it on the forums, and come to an understanding for yourself.  That's the best thing for you to do, since you know what you're comfortable with.  I'm sure that you can find someone on these forums who can act as a mentor in a sense if you can't find someone in person.  

Sometimes finding a "psychic" store near where you live can help also.  I did that, and was lead to a very wonderful lady who co-owns the store.  Usually they know about groups who meet every week or month and help edify each other.  It's just something you have to feel out, though.

Anyway, I hope you feel welcome though!
