i'm having a difficult time distinguishing the living from the dead
i see spirits really clear just like humans but I just know there dead
but sometimes i see people and i think there alive but then they disappear right in front of me
i presume these people are spirits are they?
but the ones that i think are alive frighten me
do you learn to determine tell the diference between the living and dead because i can't really tell at the moment

Good evening,

I'm no sensitive, at least not that I am yet aware of. So let that qualify my answer, but it would seem to me if it were me, I would pay closer attention to the body language of people around you. Do they acknowledge that someone is there? If not, chances are one of them is a spirit.

We have quite a number of sensitives on here including instructors. I'll ask one of them to contact you if you like.

thanks i just get a bit startled when someone i think is alive disappears in front of me

Hi eimeard07. I don't consider myself a sensitive or even an expert but I do have some some suggestions for you. Look at what's happening around you. If the person you suspect is a spirit they may seem confused, walk through things or even look directly at you and stare. If you are sensitive I would think you have a sort of beacon that calls to them...that's why you see them. Remember: spirits were once living people and may not know they have passed away.

Have you tried talking to them?

Realize first and foremost that they wish to communicate with you. They know who they can do this with. I don't know how they know, they just do. It probably has something to do with the energy you put off; not to mention the fact that this is something you were supposed to be able to do when you came here on the earthly plane.

You can help many on the other side. If that weren't the case, they may not be appearing like they are.

Just my 2 cents.

Hi eime, It's sixsense. I see spirits just like you do. In human form. Till this day, I still have problems trying to distinguish the living from the dead. Some times it's just hard to do. I do find however, that most spirits will not speak. They may smile and nod, or stare at you. The ones that stare and say nothing are easier to tell apart from the living. It's a feeling you can get from them. Now the happier go lucky spirtits still confuse me. I see them and think that they are alive until the peron I'm with (if not alone) ask who I'm smiling at or looking at. Leave it to the living to put you in your place...

I know it can be scary but the fear part you have to learn to control. As we talked the other day i felt you being calmed. This is how you need to be so you can help them if you can. I am still new to the psychic part of life but am also a sensitive as you know. You will learn to control this with help.

Your not alone. I have seen the ghost that lives in my place while I was in the shower and it wasn't a scary feeling. I could tell he was just curious to see who lived in the house and I could sense he wasn't going to scare me.

I just learned we are not here to help them all the time. Sometimes we see wht we see and thats all we need to do. I also have seen things but there is no control over wht you see. I don't think we are to uderstand the stuff we see just see it and move on, but there is stuff we see that way may be able to help just have to figure out the diffrenece in the living and the dead so you don't confuse them and mess up what you are seeing by creating youe own conclusion.

you nailed it Undertaker, We're not there to always help. Sometimes we just cross their path. They are there doing what they always do. And yes, even the scary ones don't want help, my feeling from them is, you can see me don't you?..they seem more shocked than anything else.

So as sensitives we just hsve trust our feelings and heart. You'll know what to do than..
