Are these rare "medical conditions" common? Do they even have names?
Hi, since I was around 7 I’ve noticed I can do things with my body that didn’t seem normal to me. I’ll explain them to you and maybe you can tell me if these are somethings that everyone can do, or if there are names for these things.
1. I can mentally change my body temperature. I don’t know how to explain this, but like for example: I live in Canada where our winters are very cold. If me and my friends are outside wearing not so warm clothes, they start to shiver. That makes sense, but with me, if I start to feel cold, I go into a weird meditation state and I warm myself up. I don’t know how to explain it. It’s like I’ll stand there and close my eyes. Then I focus all my thoughts on an area of my body that is cold (usually my ears or toes). Then I slowly warm up some how. I noticed I could do this since I was very young, and swam in a half frozen river. None of my friends can do this. They just stand there and freeze, but if I focus on part of my body, I can warn it up. Is there a name for this? Is this common in people?
2. I have a weird sense of smell. I’ve noticed this for the longest
time. It kind of has two extraordinary parts to it:
A – I can smell the weather. Ever since I was young (like 4 or 5) at night I could smell and predict the next day’s weather based on the smell. Like now that I’m 14, I realize that not everyone can do this like I thought. Every night if I go outside before bed, and I take a slow but long breath through my nose, I will know the next days forcast. If it’s going to rain, it smells sweet. If the leaves are about to fall (in autumn) it smells strongly like wood. If first snowfall is coming, it smells sweet like the rain, but drier. It is just weird.
B – I can smell death. When I was younger, before my grandpa died, he smelled of a weird stench. It is hard to explain. It’s like a sweet musty smell. I thought nothing of it. My cat got that same
smell a month ago, and it triggered a memory to back before my grandpa died. Sure enough my cat had an infection, and recently passed. My mom has this same death smell, but mine seems stronger. I could smell it on my cat 2 weeks before my mom could. This death smell thing seems more common from the small amount of research I’ve done.
Now, please tell me if there are any names for these "conditions" and how common they are. Do u know anyone who can do these? I’m not trying to sound like a superhero. I honestly know I have these "powers" I guess u could call them. Share your stories!
@ first poster: I’m thinking that too. It seems really far fetched that someone could do the above.
I would call it Psychic. I’ve heard of this before.

I want to say delusional but that is not what you want to hear. It’s all in your head.
