I keep having a scary premonition-type feeling?

For the past 2 or 3 days, I keep having thoughts that I am going to get hurt badly. It seems to be centered on driving my car. I have never experienced anything like this and I don't necessarily believe in premonitions. However, it really is scaring me and bothering me. When I have these thoughts, I get quick but vivid images of myself getting hurt badly and I can almost feel it. Any thoughts on what might be going on with me?

    I hate playing Psychiatrist, but the Psychiatrist Rollo May describes in one of books about one of his patients who would have several times a month premonitions that he would die in an accident if drove his car that day and at such times he would refuse to drive his car which almost resulted in getting him fired.

    My guess is that the premonitions will go away by themselves seeing as you have not have them before and you have had only two or three.

    Also I think whether they admit it or not most people have premonitions but as they go along with life they realize they suddenly realize that the premonitions were false.

    I think if they continue to the point they start affecting your life in a serious way, then you talk to a psychologist. But frankly, I think that they will go away on their own.

    One way to get rid of premonitions is to make sure that you are getting enough sleep and so get enough dreaming time or REM sleep.

    Omg I had that once! When I was little I had a dream that I was in the field behind my families house and becide my cousins houses, and we were riding on the golf cart and behind their house was an old womans trailer and some dirty old puluted water and then there was a big snake that was orange looked like a big orange cressant glased like a donut. but yes. then a few years later which was a few nights ago.. i had a dream in the same place but it was a place covered with gators and blah long story but some of my bad dreams occure in the same destination and most are the same. I don't know what it means, mine never came true but I wish I could help :/

    Sleep deprivation does indeed seem to induce premonitions from what i gather of my own experience. Toying around with them will not do you any justice. It would be for your best to proceed with your life as normal, with the awareness for potential mishaps. Avoid those situations within your visions, as best as able. Keep in mind you are not a slave to premonitions, you are in fact still in control of your fate. Make of it as best you can, and use your visions as a tool.

    maybe take it at face value. be careful and pay attention when you're driving or in the car with someone else.
