I really really doubt autism is about not letting go of an old life. (More than doubt, I just flat-out don't believe it, no matter who said it.) It can be a very romanticized way of viewing it, and had a part in a fantasy I told myself over and over for a long time (that I was a soul either accidentally dropped in the wrong body or put in this body for a purpose or whatever, anything other than "defective" which is what I deep down thought I was), but it's not how it works.
ETA - I "read" people VERY well...
I have heard this theory before. I found your post to be very interesting. I would love to go see a psychic. I love Sylvia Browne! I don't usually talk about such things here because some people are very unaccepting of other belief systems and will start to flame in the name of protecting you from such people(Like you don't have enough sense to make up you own mind).
I don't think it is wierd at all. God has may ways to get through to us. If all this made sense to you and your situation that is all that is important.
I'm like Karrie...I'm very skeptical of this kind of stuff. I just feel that there are so many little hints for them to pick up on. Could be the autism pin on your purse or the bracelet on your wrist. Just so many things that could lead them in the right direction until they sense they found what you wanted to hear.
But I too feel that if it was a positive experience for you then it's good. It might be fun to hear about our previous lives, of course if they are happy ones.
I agree common things, she told me all that before saying he was autistic.
It was after she said all those things she said, "oh he's autistic" and then started talking about what it means.
So first she talked about the yelling and my son's other lives she only mentioned the 2, then said he was allergic to gluten, and the book, then the sleep issues and the doctor and then autistic. I said nothing.
Her name is Colleen Chase.
Yeah, I know weird, weird.
I guess no one else has heard that theory about autism.
Did not mention the milk, and I agree, gluten intolerance, but if she didn't know...
I don't know if you've gone to a psychic, but I did a few weeks ago. Not because of my sons autism, but because I wanted to.
Anyway, I did not tell her about my son. She told me he had autsim. Then went on to tell me, that autism occurs when a child can't decide to let go of their old lives and decide to live this one.
She said my son doesn't speak because he was yelled at alot in a previous life and taught that he should not speak. She said there was alot of yelling in my house. (And there is. My 14yr old yells alot, which will send my son into stims. ) She said it was my older daughter, and we needed to seek some family counseling to deal with this.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone else ever heard this one?
I don't know what to make of it. So weird that she was right on about everything in our life, and then she had to say that
But she also told me my son was a tibetin monk in a previous life!
Hmmmm interesting though..
Karrie
We'll it was interesting enough, but I just thought I'd share the autism part she shared with me.
That was weird. I was also wondering if anyone had ever heard this one. It just left me shaking my head.
She also told me he was allergic to gluten and I had a book coming that would help me out with getting him off gluten.
She talked with his guardian angel "Joseph" who said he also had a sleep disturbance and I need to make sure and go to the holistic doctor I was planning on taking him to, that she would help us with diet and sleep. She talked about his diarrhea, said it would slow down and eventually stop on the diet.
It was weird that's for sure, but helpful in a way too.
Hi shyboy! I love seeing your sons smiling face in your sig! Anyway, I do have to say I am skeptical....I wish I did believe in it sometimes, because it sounds like psychics always give a reason for everything. I guess I dont think that way anymore, like "everthing happens for a reason.." I used to think that way, but not now. It would be easier, in a way, to think that. But if you like to go, go and enjoy it.I totally beleive in REAL psychics. But, there really are so many fake ones outI am careful about it. My mother is psychic, but does not know how to always read what she sees, alot of times she will tell me something, and yes it does happen, but in a different way then we thought it would.
She tells me we live many lives and are given the choice to come back. I believe this too.
As to this psychic. I just wanted to hear from another person. She was recommended on a surrogacy message board that I am a member of. Yes I am a surrogate, and nurse IRL. She told me it would be girls this time, as my mother predicted.
Anyway, thankyou for your opinions on this
Interesting post - I am also a psychic sceptic - not because I dont believe in the supernatural but becasue I feel that there are a lot of charlatans
Certainly looks like you had an encouraging visit - regardless of anything - certainly tring out the GFCF makes sense and the psychic visit may have gaiven you a little more encouragement to do it
In my religion ( Hindu) we actually do believe in reincarnation - ie people are re-born into other lives till you achieve Nirvana
But I had never heard of it in relation to ASD before
