I have a nagging feeling something is coming. Anyone else?

[mordarlar]

I am very edgy. This usually only happens when something big is coming. Has anyone else been feeling this the past two days? Like a storm blowing in?

[arcane1]

1. dude...

on edit- dudette....


I've HAD that feeling, all this time!!!!!

it's coming

[mordarlar]

2. I mean like in the next few days.

[arcane1]

6. I expect it...

anytime

ANY

TIME

[Mutley]

68. great pic

of bush being mauled by that cat, by the way. they say animals are good judges of character. heehee...

[Maddy McCall]

11. Funny. I've had that feeling for the past two days.

Can't explain it, though. Just a real sense of uneasiness that something MAJOR is about to happen. :scared:

[LittleClarkie]

26. A-rooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Maybe it's the full moon.

Me too. But I figured it was the moon.

[Tracyjo]

33. the moon or PMS- I dunno yet n/t

[LittleClarkie]

35. I'm post-MS, so I know it isn't that

But then I've been emotional since I realized it's been a whole year since my dad died, so that could be part of it.

I just hope I'm not going to be this gonzo until the next election.

And I'd had such high hopes that my sleep pattern would return to normal after THIS election. No such luck.

[Ilsa]

61. I have found that anniversary dates of difficult and

tragic events set me on edge for several days to a week before the date, even if I don't consciously realize the date is coming up. I get a little edgy, I sleep more poorly, and tend to try to stress-eat.

Hang in there. It usually gets easier with time.

[Lilith Velkor]

66. Funny you should mention Gonzo

I've had this irrational nagging feeling something's coming ever since he checked out, as if he knew something. Or it's connected to the Negroponte appointment, I just dunno...

[merh]

69. Sleep, sleep

Sleep pattern return to normal -- don't I wish. My sleep pattern is that I can't sleep, stay up until exhausted (till 1 or 2 a.m.) wake up late for work, run behind, work late, stay up late, then by Friday, I am so exhausted, I sleep until 10 or 11 on Saturday, nap during the day on Sat or Sun then stay up late Sunday, unable to sleep and thus the pattern continues...

I have a sleep pattern!

[mordarlar]

4. lol at dudette

[FreedomAngel82]

12. I do think something

It's like my mind is waiting for it to happen. I've been preparing myself lately. I don't know why. But my "intuition" has never failed me before. So I would prepare for something if you can. I've also been nervous but I don't know if that's just a personal thing or what. I've been trying to pinpoint the feeling but I can't since it comes and goes. But just hope and pray for the best and just be prepared.

[mordarlar]

14. Yeah that is why i asked. My gut is pretty accurate most of the time....

but it did not feel personal. My children also have a bit of a sense ability and they have been waking more at night. Lots of dreams lately.

Edited for grammar

[arcane1]

16. we here on the west coast have not been hit yet

:scared:

"Iranian" nuke, perhaps?

[alittlelark]

19. "WE" are the only real exports the US has....

software, ideas.... They would be fools to let anything happen to our only export.


They are fools, I can only hope they are not STUPID FOOLS.

[arcane1]

20. I thought that about the WTC

:scared:

[alittlelark]

22. They bwere just trading $$ for our ideas.

non-critical.

[Bronco69]

30. Didn't that lady in Schindler's List say something similar?

I'm paraphrasing, but she said something like, "We are the workers, they wouldn't let anything happen to us."

[arcane1]

23. I've BEEN prepared

at least mentally...

"terrorism" has been the only thing that worls for the, so far... think Goebells

[shadowknows69]

51. my dog has been acting very crazy the last couple days n/t

[Lilith Velkor]

67. so has mine

I thought it was the full moon, though.

[smurfygirl]

3. here here

Me too. But more like going on 5 days of this feeling.

Butterfly's. My body feels tense. Can't sleep.

[TOOLZ]

5. Okay, I've saved this thread....

If either of you are Nostradamus, I'll help you say I told you so.

[arcane1]

8. I'm not Nostradamus

I'm more like Nostra-dumbass, but don't rule me out! :P

[me b zola]

17. Lol, nostra dumbass!

But really, there is not too much to laugh at. The evil bastards have everything lined up to suit their whims, which is extremely bad for the bulk of humanity. Who really knows which shoe will fall first;the demise of our economy, a horrific "terrorist" attack?

It is indeed coming, but none of us knows when. I predicted 2007, but i don't know shit. All I know is that we (my hubbie & I) have plans to not live under a marshal plan.

The rest of the world is making it plenty clear; they are fed up with shrub & his bullying ways. The world is rallying against us. I can not even begin to understand what that means to our survival. Things are going to begin breaking off relatively soon. I hope to maintain contact with my fellow DUer's.



PEACE

[FreedomAngel82]

87. Only thing I can think of

is to just prepare yourself and go about your daily lives and just spend time with loved one's and all that. Don't take each day for granteed. Live as if you're dying tomorrow. I do that anyways to get more out of life. Anyways. I thought about this last night and just don't know. Bush is over in Europe with Laura and the rest of his administration is very silent and that always makes me nervous. Nothing is really working out for Bush and we all know what happened last time this happened. He hasn't talked about his SS plan in a while and we all know he wants to go into Iran (part of PNAC). So I do worry. Also on the full moon sometimes I can't sleep on full moons (one time I was up till 5am cause of a full moon) but I'm never nervous. With me when I'm nervous it usually means something is going to happen whether with me personally or something in the world that will effect me personally. With the tsumani I didn't have this because it didn't directly effect my life. I guess it's like a warning from yourself. :shrug: Sometimes I think I'm over paranoid, but then I remember who is running the country....

[fooj]

7. There's a full moon...

[Hissyspit]

9. It's been a little slow lately.

It had been a little slow for several years a while back, the next thing I knew an election is stolen and the WTC and Pentagon are being blown up (then anthrax - anybody remember the anthrax mail? How come JAG and Arnold Swartzeneggar haven't gotten to blow the guy(s) responsible for that away in a moment of testosterone fantasy-fulfillment? What? You mean this is real life and not a movie?)

[Kenergy]

10. Yes. It felt particularly strong today.

Not only that, but my cats (who usually greet me when I get home)
aren't around. Don't know what it is, may be a coincidence, but
it was an odd feeling.

[FreedomAngel82]

13. Cats are very

intuitive with spiritual matters. They must know something if they aren't coming around you a lot and they usually do. I don't know. Plus Cheney has been out of the picture a lot lately. Where is he? That always makes me nervous.

[Mutley]

75. cheney

has a habit of disappearing for fairly long periods of time doesn't he? i've wondered about that.

[barbaraann]

38. Oh, no.

My cat is going nuts. I live in the Pacific Northwest.

[Tom Kitten]

15. Giant earthquake?

Basically wiping out the west part of the Pacific Northwest as we know it? They say it could happen anytime...

[alittlelark]

21. The Profs at NMSU said that it WOULD HAPPEN

but would be preceeded by earthquakes going N-S in CA.... we aren't even close.

But IF the back and forth earthquakes happen we have time.

[strategery blunder]

18. Well, Bu$h needs something big to sell a draft before the June invasion

of Iran...:scared:

[purduejake]

36. I've been saying that for a few days...

And I feel it is going to happen soon. I am edgy and have also talked about the feeling that something is finally going to happen to the Bush administration. Something BIG is going to come up and bite them in the ass. I feel it coming.

Link from me saying this before. I find it odd that we are all feeling something. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=102&topic_id=1261436&mesg_id=1261449&page=

[ClayZ]

46. I am so tense it hurts! I keep thinking * is at the end of his game.

* going down might make a very big twirling sound. I envision a swirling dark wind with demons and bats, sucking all evil into a big pit of fire and it will close off with a clank, and we will be back to what we once were. SWOOP! A puff of smoke and thats it. Bunnies and bluebirds will frolic out on the grass and tulips will start blooming.

Ah that feels better. :crazy:


My Jaw aches from grinding my teeth. I keep looking for Breaking News. Has this sort of thread come up on DU before?

I don't remember feeling so nervous since my daughter was in labor for 24 hours and was told she had to have a C section. She asked me to go in the operating room with her husband. That is the kind of "OH MY GOD" anxiety I have. BUT.... OH, what a beautiful baby. (now 12 and still a sweety). Point is, going through the fear, I guess. Hold on. It might get bumpy!


O8) "Whenever I despair, I remember that the way of truth and love has always won. There may be tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they may seem invincible, but in the end, they always fail. Think of it: always." - Gandhi

:kick:

[Sugar Smack]

52. My jaw has been clenched for 3 days!!!

It's a conscious effort for me to relax it. I know firsthand about the gut feeling. Something huge could happen in the next few days, or something small-like Bush winding up with YET ANOTHER festering scrape on his face.;-)

[Mutley]

76. lets just hope

it bites bushco and not the rest of us...

[mordarlar]

78. That's it. Something directly relating to them. Thought that yest.

[FreedomAngel82]

88. Also something else

I thought about last night dealing with the Bush administration. Sometimes I wonder if he even wanted to be President again. What if he tries something to get out of it? Know what I mean? Because just look at the 2000 election and the 2004 election. Maybe he didn't know he would get re-elected or something. He did horrible in the debates (even being wired) and he didn't do hardly any campaigning in Florida or Ohio.
Wasn't he in Florida a good bit in 2000? I didn't follow politics back then as much since I wasn't old enough to vote (and I would've Gore since I thought he was brilliant). What if Rove and Cheney are planting something to get rid of Bush and get out of the election because nothing is working out? I know it's a silly thing but it popped in my head last night while trying to sleep. They can always let John Kerry take over for a while and then in 2008 try again with another canidate (McCain maybe?)? :shrug:

[mordarlar]

89. Or get rid of him to appease those that hate him while framing another...

country? Then they can move tothe next "leader". Cheney? Been in my mind too.

[Extend a Hand]

24. global conciousness project

Hey, here's an article about a study that might end up providing scientific evidence about the accuracy of those feelings.

You can follow the links at bottom of the article and see the real time data.

http://www.rednova.com/news/display/?id=126649#121
http://noosphere.princeton.edu/

(I posted this once but the thread was already buried and I think it's neat so I'm posting it again here)

[purduejake]

41. That's some interesting stuff.

It fascinates me. Thanks for the link!

[The Minus World]

45. Great Links

People should not dismiss this out of hand. Mankind is constantly making new discoveries concerning its place in this world. Rejecting these findings, whatever they may signify, would be akin to a misanthrope rejecting a conversation about the roundness of the world.

[mordarlar]

81. Facinating.

[FreedomAngel82]

91. How strange

Is the box having any weird things going on with it lately?

[Extend a Hand]

102. I wish I could tell

There was way to much high level math for me to understand how to analyze it. I'm waiting for the global conciousness for dummies analysis.
:)
I had to pay for calc 3 times just to pass it with a C :(

[Swamp Rat]

25. Gannon's new tell-all book?

:D

[LibeMatt]

32. Sick and WRONG!!!!

:evilgrin: :bounce: :evilgrin:

:puke:

[fujiyama]

27. I've felt that way too

But I think it's the weather. Damn this snow!

[FreedomAngel82]

93. Weather is beautiful

here though. Rain here and there but it's been nice all week. :shrug: So not the case with me.

[Mojorabbit]

28. Same here

For the last four days or so. Hubby says I am getting paranoid but in the next breath asks what I think it will be. I have a good track record with my intuition...

[DesEtoiles]

29. St. Helens has been active

http://www.fs.fed.us/gpnf/volcanocams/msh/

[Andromeda]

42. I lived in Portland in 1980,

and I saw St. Helens blow her top from a good safe distance and it was a devastating sight.

Ash clung to everything and people with respiratory problems were especially vulnerable. You couldn't go outside without a mask and it was difficult to drive in some areas.

[GetTheRightVote]

31. Yes, I am waiting as well, war started with more of Asia ???

:kick:

[podnoi]

34. Understanding that * policies are causign the world to go nuts

I get this feeling but I think it is more related to watching the effect of the last few years on the world. Things are ratcheting up big time. Bush is doing more to global instability than anyone could have imagined.

[LibeMatt]

37. His ratings are going down...

...as is his Social Security destructo-plan, and even though you don't hear that much about it now that the Iraqis are Truly Free and Independent and Democratic(TM), American soldiers are still dying at a rate of one to three per day and Iraqis at ten times that. Not that anyone's counting. You'd think it would occur to many people (or at least enough) that if there's another big attack, maybe this gang isn't so hot at protecting us and should be fired at the first opportune moment.

Of course, perhaps enough of Them(TM) understand that if the economy truly tanks, with or without outside stimulus, they might lose their own fortunes and have to take out their own trash. We surely can't bank on this, though.

Election Reform, Open Elections, Transparent Elections, Every Vote Must Count are memes we should be working on to make sure that we can oust this gang starting in '06 and then beyond.

[bling bling]

39. Yes, me too.

I had a panicky feeling today and couldn't put my finger on it. I kept checking the news to see if "it" happened yet. I almost called my husband from work and told him to sell all of his stock, in case it had something to do with the stock market. But then I figured he'd just think I'm nuts or something.

Yes, I had a very "something bad is about to happen" feeling today. I just hope it was a fluke. Maybe fight/flight mechanism out of whack today or something.

[Juan Martinez]

40. I have.

I have, and I don't think it's going to be good. Living up here in the State of Washginton and all and dealing with the possible do-over of the gubernatorial race.

[Andromeda]

43. That's right,

what are they saying? Something about felons voting, I heard, and now the Republicans want to have another election.

Is that going to happen? Geesh, I hope not.

By the way, welcome to DU! :hi:

[newyawker99]

64. Hi Juan Martinez!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[aquart]

44. War. Economic collapse. Environmental disaster.

Now would be a good time to start the office pool.

[HeeBGBz]

47. Yes. I posted about it yesterday

Didn't get any response though. Maybe I posted it in the wrong forum.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=2679456&mesg_id=2679456

I don't feel it as strongly today as I did yesterday. It comes and goes. Don't know what direction it's pointing. Been thinking a lot about the bird flu hype. Also worried about my kids on the gulf coast. Economic or environmental?

A few weeks ago I bought stuff that would help me if I had to live out of my car. Tent, sleeping bag, etc. So it's an underlying thing for me, but yesterday's feeling was very strong.

[bling bling]

48. I hope it doesn't have anything to do with our location.

I noticed you're also from Missouri!

That's funny what you said. A few weeks ago I had this feeling I should stock up on things. I bought batteries, canned food, etc. just in case. I felt kind of silly about it when I got home with all my stuff and had to explain it to my husband but I was of the mind set that I should listen to my sixth sense because "better safe than sorry."

So far, I obviously haven't needed it so I hope I'm just being a little overly sensitive. But I guess it's better to try to be prepared and not need it than not be prepared and regret it.

[FreedomAngel82]

96. I always listen to things like this

In the past I would ignore it and think "I'm being silly" but I've learned way too many times not to ignore it. I know I'm being warned for a reason.

[DearAbby]

90. I too had the feeling I should stock up and by a tent and bags

this is really scary, last night it was bad, not so much today. I also was taking mental inventory on what I have in case I could not get the tent and bags...to make shift survival.

[FreedomAngel82]

95. I don't know

what it's going to be but it is a very nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach. I usually don't feel this unless it's something directly with me so that worries me even more. It comes and goes and earlier in the week it was a very weak feeling but now it's coming around a bit more and I can pinpoint it more. It doesn't feel personal. At first I thought it might've been something else with me but this doesn't feel like it. I think if this was what I was thinking of it would've been around the heart chakra.

[BlueEyedSon]

49. Iran must disarm or face the consequences!

....um.... right?

[Melynn]

50. Nope, not me

but I will defer to your gut instincts. Something very big may be on the way. Who knows with the Bush regime. :shrug:

[jokerman93]

53. I started hearing "chatter"

I started hearing "chatter" on NPR yesterday about W.H.O. announcing concern about the imminent possibility of a worldwide birdflu pandemic that could kill millions if the virus jumps to human transmission. NPR isn't usually a station that broadcasts hysteria, but then "who" knows nowadays???

:shrug:

[blindpig]

54. The Good Doctor knew

big darkness coming.

[sendero]

55. It's the full moon..

.... it affects a lot of people.

[FreedomAngel82]

97. Only thing with the moon

is I get restless at night and not nervous. During the day (and night) is when I'm nervous about something. :shrug:

[sendero]

101. Let's hope...

... you are not psychic :)

[SmokingJacket]

56. Could be instinct, could be logic.

Whenever things look bad for the Bushies, something happens to swing the pendulum the other way. I've been nervous as a cat since the Gannon stuff came out. Plus all this Iran-swagger, and the fact that he's far away in Yurp...

[newportdadde]

57. I've had the flu the past two days

so my internal clock has been shut down for that. However I've been feeling like something was coming for over a week given the sudden burst of interest in an oil ETF I have, double volume day after day, new 52 week highs etc. Just felt like people knew something and were jumping in.

[mattclearing]

58. Well, yeah.

Of course, I'm in DC, so a storm actually IS blowing in. We're finally getting a respectable snowstorm.

If Scott Ritter is right, SOMETHING will have to happen. There's no way we can go into Iran without a serious event.

Still, there's nothing to be gained by being afraid. They want us to be afraid, so when we are afraid, we let them win.

I'm not going to let those crazy people frighten me.

They are beatable. They are slow, and they are ignorant.

Even so, if something major enough happens that could enable an attack on Iran, the dead will be the lucky ones.

[ghostsofgiants]

59. I dunno if any of you people have seen the Danish miniseries Riget...

But you all remind me of the two down's syndromed dishwahers.

[Tsiyu]

60. For me it's a sense of relief

which I haven't felt in a while: As in, it will all work out.


Remember, the bible the RW reads is the same one that they FORGOT says, "There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. What you whisper in your closet will be shouted from the rooftops."


HA! If that prophecy comes true, we're in bidness!

[Ilsa]

62. I'm not having those feelings like I did in December and November,

but I have been feeling more aware of the potential for global economic catastrophe, a new war, and I'm a little concerned about the CDC warnings for a pandemic flu outbreak.

[Just Me]

63. Yes, last two days.This morning, I found out my brother has been activated

My youngest brother (33 yrs old) is in the national guard. He has been notified. He such a fine man, and my son and I have a very close relationship with him. I dread telling my 14 yr old about his favorite uncle.

When my step-father called this morning to let me know, I sobbed. I am breaking into tears right now.

[ClayZ]

65. Just keep hoping for the best outcome for all!

Have you talked to your brother yet? That will probably help too!
There is still lots of time for it to end before he would be going, no?



:hug:

[mordarlar]

82. :::just me::: I am sending the best to your brother.

[fooj]

85. We are all sending good thoughts your little brother's way...

and, I, for one, promise to NGU! I won't stop fighting until every last rat bastard is held accountable for their grievous behavior! Peace!:hug:

[FreedomAngel82]

98. I'm sorry for your brother

:hug: :(

[Just Me]

100. Thank you all. I've been in tears on and off all day. Your support,...

,...means a LOT especially since I am not very good at playing "strong" when I feel just, plain sad and scared.

I just, you know, love him so much and I don't want anything bad to happen to him because he really is such a wonderful person and does NOT deserve to be pulled into this nightmare. He's been the only consistent father figure in my son's life (whose father has never even contacted him) and he's been a supportive friend to me.

*sigh*

I mourn for all the innocent people who are being forced to bear an undeserved suffering imposed by this disgusting leadership.

[Mutley]

70. i get that feeling sometimes

but it is usually wrong. currently i have no feeling of dread... so maybe that means something IS coming...

[Lilith Velkor]

71. Yes, but to be fair

It is snowing here in DC. People here tend to freak out over a few flakes, let alone substantial snow.

[Goldmund]

Nope, not me.

:evilgrin:

[julialnyc]

72. Strange! I've been so edgy all week

Having anxiety that makes me immobile. I've had a hard time motivating myself to go to the gym, because I don't want to "miss" anything on the news. Also, I've been drinking more than usual to calm my self before bed (red wine in the evenings). My fiance has felt the same too (bad insomnia and feeling a weight on his chest)

[RBHam]

73. You're spidey senses are never wrong...

Possible connection...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x3170007

[distantearlywarning]

74. I have been this way since the election.

It's like this nagging, unpleasant feeling at the edge of consciousness. Although the intensity has subsided since December (I am no longer waking up at 3 am unable to get back to sleep because of some intense but undirected anxiety), the "push" at the back of my mind has gotten more insistent. If that makes any sense.

I find myself reluctant to make long-term financial plans, and keep also finding myself thinking random thoughts during the day about buying canned food, foreign currency, stuff like that, when I least expect it.

It's very strange. I have never had another period in my life where I felt such a constant, long-lasting sense of unease for absolutely no reason at all. I am convinced at this point that something pretty catastrophic is going to happen soon. I don't know what it is though - whether it is a financial collapse, or the flu, or terrorism, or some natural disaster or what. But something is bothering me all the time.

[smurfygirl]

79. well, don't forget water

I have made it a habit that every time I go into the store I buy two gallons of water. I too have felt like storing things. I have no idea why.

[Trailrider1951]

99. Holy cow, so I'm not the only one!

The last several weeks when I have gone to the grocery store, I find myself impulse buying on automatic pilot! I walk down the isle, and say to myself, this looks good or this is a good buy, never remembering that I already have three just like it at home!! And it is always non-perishable food: extra rice, beans, canned veggies, pasta, you name it! My pantry overfloweth! LOL, if no disaster comes, at least I can help the food bank!

And the NIGHTMARES:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=245x4473

[Media_Lies_Daily]

77. I have the feeling every morning when I wake up....

...and after I review the news, I'll discover that something bad happened somewhere in the world. I must be psychic...you think?

[tom_paine]

80. To get the draft you need another LIHOP/MIHOP

The feeling you are getting is similar to the Sitzkrieg of 1940, which culminated in the Invasion of France and the Netherlands, I believe.

Imperial Amerika is undergoing a similar Sitzkrieg, the only difference is another Psychic Shock will have to be arranged to make the draft palatable.

No later than 2007, probably MUCH sooner, because the quaint Imperial Amerikan tradition of switiching Bushevik Emperor's every 8 years means they have to move fast.

[Joe the Revelator]

83. This thread is made by someone at least once a month....

psychics we are not.

[mordarlar]

84. Erased

[IndianaGreen]

86. The Pope will die. Bush will be revealed as the Beast of Revelation.

We are at the halfway point of the 7-year Tribulation period. The Second Coming will take place in 2008 when the forces of Darkness are defeated and a Democrat enters the White House.

I don't believe in any of that Christian eschatology, but it does seem to jive nicely with current events.

[tsuki]

92. Like the total collapse of the economy? Gee, no, but having

said that, all other options are on the, the, uh, the, you know that big flat thing on four posts.

94. Woody has our back.

"More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly." -- Woody Allen
