The things you talk about I can relate to ...
I believe that so called schizophrenics are highly sensitive ... to others feelings ... it becomes a problem when one takes on the feelings of others
and thinks those feelings are their own.
Thus doing so the so called schizophrenic can have very profound mood swings. confusion and paranoia
I will try to explain as best I can.
We each have the potential ability of sensing how another feels ... this can apply to animals also.
We can not know another's exact thoughts ... but can sense how another feels
The person or even animal does not need to be physically in your presence
You could wake up with the feeling of great elation or depression for example ... But in studying that feeling you may not have any particular reason
for having that feeling ... Take note of the feeling and you may find that later that day or even a longer time period ... someone will cross your
path to whom that feeling belongs ...
Here is an example ... Say you wake up feeling depressed but have no reason for feeling depressed ... later you meet someone or receive a call or
message from another and the feeling you had or have comes to mind ... They may not exhibit that feeling as we are all taught to wear masks ... ie
hide our true feelings
So gently ask the person "How are things with you" ... this gives them the opportunity to speak about how they are feeling.
Everything we experience we experience through thought ... Logic and even Scientific or Medical can not explain all things to our satisfaction ...
Through thought we can glean insight of things that logic says is not possible.
Here is a final example of my own.
When young and in school ... my mathematical ability or rather ny school score was very very poor ... the subject did not interest me ... probably
because how it was taught to me ... However not to digress .... I was sat in class whilst the Maths teacher was chalking out a long "Problem" ... I
sat there daydreaming as usual ... then suddenly the thought came to me to say the answer ... as I said the teacher was only part way through chalking
out the mathematical problem we were supposed to work out ... I shot up my hand and the teacher said "Yes what do you want" I said the answer is one
over four ... she scowled at me and said "How did you know that" ... I innocently replied "I just did Miss"
Thought is our link to Reality ... Sensing is a gift to be used for others benefit ... when we mistake the sensing of another for our own feelings we
automatically will get reasons for having that sense ... It takes practice to know the difference ... Be gentle with yourself and others and
understand you do have a special gift ...
Sorry for such a long reply ... I hope this helps some way
