I keep having strange and scary premonitions lately.?

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?

Update:

Tess- No, I have not had any dreams like that lately or ever that I can remember. All of these thoughts enter my mind while I am awake and doing things. Another thing, though, is that I have nightmares more than the average person (twice a week or more).

    Premonitions can be downright terrifying. My experience with them has been--thankfully--that most do not come true. My suggestion: Continue to go about your regular routine, including driving. Just pay extra attention to your driving and what's going on around you. Premonitions are often warnings--they are never gauranteed to come true.

    Sometimes when i have thoughts like the ones that you are describing I think it is a hormonal or a stress thing.

    But i was in an accident a month ago and it has left me somewhat fearful and mistrustful of other drivers. I guess if you think too much about all the bad things that suddenly could randomly happen at an intersection somewhere it can scare the gee-willickers out of you.

    It happens to me. I get deja vu and then I get anxious and then I get convinced something terrible will happen. My imagination is quite powerful and I too picture such events. Unless you want to drive yourself crazy write it off as a lack of sleep or whatever else and continue with your day. If you can't write it off, see a doctor.
