Psychics



Recommended Posts

I have often wondered about the police investigators who say they use psychics to help solve crimes. It seems you hear more and more of them starting to use them. I often wonder how it works, because I am pretty skeptical of the whole thing myself.

That's not true. I have been watching Sylvia since I was in high school, so I am thinking over 10 years and I have never heard her give anyone a medical diagnosis.

What she does is tell me I am seeing problems in this area (i.e. heart) and I would get that checked. Or if someone is having problems figuring out what their illness is she'll say I would would your thyroid checked (ie).

Either way people have to use their own common sense. If Slyvia's a fake, she's one of the better tv psychics I have seen. I think that some people can have this gift, but I don't think anyone ulimately knows other than God.

This phone psychic services are just call centers. My cousin used to work for Ms. Cleo before she was shut down. They just had to keep the people on the phone after the free minutes were up.

I have done a palm reader for fun in Atlantic City, but it was just for fun. Not one thing she said came true, lol.

I've intermittently watched Sylvia Browne for years because she intrigues me. How she has made such a huge amount of money doing what she does interests me. She does give people diagnoses to their illnesses. She's done it from day one. She tells them they have all kinds of maladies. If I had a dime for everyone she's told has fibromyalgia I'd be rich. Heck, they specifically ask her and I've never heard her say she didn't know. Yes, she also does what you say-- tells people they might get this or that checked. I agree. She's one of the better t.v. psychics..she makes millions of dollars doing what she does.

Interesting about the phone thing..I always wondered how that worked. Do they get paid by how long they keep people on the phone after the free minutes are up...? For instance, do they get paid more for keeping someone on for ten minutes than they do for five?

Do any of you remember baby jessica? I was young when it happened but a psychic helped get her out..so flash forward about 12 years..my friend and I went at 4 am to this seedy district of downtown houston to go see this guy. Got in line..he saw like 20 people a day and took no money but did have a donation box by the exit..not the entrance. I went first..he told me my weight would come off, I would be happy yad yada then said my dead grandfather was watching me, and he said sorry..my grandfather was a pervert so this kinda shocked me that this man apoligized for him watching me..and he said watching not watching over..then the really freaky thing happened, my best friend is coming in as I am leaving, she doesnt even get across the room beofre this man asks wheres micheal..mike is her bf. I hated/hate the guy so we never talk about him when we were together..ever. Its a sore subject for us so his name is not mentioned..heck now hes her husband and we still dont talk about him! anyways, it was totally weird...

as to most of these guys..i look at it as during the day time theyre psychics at nite theyre the call in phone sex voice...they know nothing and do nothing but drain bank accounts..Im sorry but ANY person who could pick the lottery numbers would...they dont want money from thier sight BS..win and then donate it to the red cross..then Ill believe you, instead of writing books and being on tv..as for the gy I went to I like to believe that something was real..but i cant explain it.

I agree re: the lottery numbers! It's experiences like yours that are just so strange...and, you're right, they cannot be explained. What do you think of the Edward guy..picking dead people out related to people in the audience? I've watched him..granted not that much..like I said these people and their followers fascinate me..but I could do what he does...

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
