An energy or psychic attack can happen to anyone. In this article, we explore what it is and how to recognize it.

Have you ever faced a sudden and totally unexpected negative response from someone? And has this rubbed off onto you, almost instantly making you angry and upset too? A psychic attack (also known as an energy attack) is exactly that. It comes very quickly and is caused by someone else’s negative energy being directed at you.

Negative energy, or low energy, doesn’t necessarily have to come from a person’s words; it can come from someone’s thoughts, attitudes and emotions as well.

Low energy is basically any type of energy that is produced from feeling an emotion anything less than happiness. This could be worry, doubt, fear, sadness, anger or anything else of the sort.

Of course, if you are an empath, then you are going to be more greatly affected by low energy attacks. But regardless, even the most emotionally strong can be affected too.

It can hit anyone at any time and has the ability to completely and suddenly change your mood and a general feeling of wellbeing.

It should be noted that a psychic attack can happen not only in face to face interactions with people but from a distance too. For instance, over the internet or on a phone call.

Here are ten of the most common signs that you may be experiencing a psychic attack.

  1. Coughing or choking on seemingly nothing in particular.
  2. Feeling cranky or easily irritated.
  3. A throbbing headache or even symptoms of a migraine.
  4. Feeling stomach cramps or nausea.
  5. Constant feelings of guilt, anxiety or worry eating away at you all throughout your day.
  6. Having a sudden feeling of disorientation or feeling out of sync.
  7. Difficulty in breathing or a tight feeling in your chest.
  8. Feeling sharp pains around the shoulders, chest and/or back.
  9. Feeling like you have the weight of the world on your shoulders.
  10. Suddenly feeling angry or on edge for no apparent reason.

Our natural reaction is always to blame or point fingers at ourselves when we feel this way. But in actual fact, if you find yourself feeling any or all of these symptoms on a regular basis, yet all of a sudden, it means that you are being hit by someone else’s negative energy – not your own.

Once you acknowledge that this is happening, you can then begin to look for the source and identify the problem.

  • It should be noted that those who feel attacks are also the ones doing the attacking as well. It is called the reflection principle. Those who think they are not need to meditate on that fact until you embrace it and discipline themselves to not make the first "low blow" and provoke such actions, whether innocently or not. That is a more conscious way more proactive. Monitor your own thoughts, words and actions. Self awareness is critical. Love attracts love, harmony attracts harmony, like attracts like so what are you putting out of your energy field? When attacked, send love and peace to that soul, not fear or hostility. Build your own field through exercise, breathwork, meditation, energy healing. It could be you're weakness was exposed and they just made it obvious. Good! Now you can get to strengthening you. Namaste.

    • Once you start going against the system (spiritual as well) you will get attacks. Too many souls benefitting energetically from millions of beings under their control.

  • Hi ,

    I am an empath, someone with really intense nasty energy has come into my life, like a narcissitc personality type. i tried to set limits but he keeps overstepping the boundries
    , i am sensitve soul and need to make stand agianst this type of interaction. it leaves me scattered irritable and with headaches and being around this type of energy is becoming a problem for me energetically

  • I get a large amount of psychic attack combined with black magic. I know exactly where it is coming from and the individuals are NARCISSTIC in nature, and retaliate by sneaky methods. It is so far as doing their best to block,obstruct so I am surrounded by their crappy stuff and pathological as they come. Biggest issues they steal personal items constantly because my energy is on it and they can work with it.

    Main ones always work in threes and use other to do their bidding, or just want to keep a person down and controlled. Cannot walk and chew gum, but want to interfere in someone else's life.

    One of the best things is talking about it and exposing the, as much as possible.

    Remember a wolf in sheep clothing is quite deceitful if you are not experienced or know what to look for.

  • I am a empath and recently stayed with a friend I ad not met before but I had a strong connection over the phone. It was wonderful the first day ii got there. e had completely shit me out the second day. Later I had pains in my chest that ended up in a severe panic attack. Things were better next day but II was completely out of sync. I couldn't eat properly the whole six days I was there; I ad major headaches and was very submissive to him. I ad another severe panic attack before I left. I found even his voice on the phone gave me body shakes and I got agitated. I couldn't settle or about a week once I got home I thought we might be twin flames. He ended up feeling really good, motivated and positive while I was there I ended up feeling drained unmotivated and sick. I have cut of all contact but I still feel tied to him.
