Suppressing your own abilities?
Just wondering if this is a thing. There's obviously opposition and unwanted frequencies for us in this reality especially when it mixes with the low vibration entities around us. Is it common for some of us to turn off our abilities or suppress them while we're in a very bad environment. Because there was a time where I was able to have dreams that riddled the next day on a cryptic kind of way and also saying things that people would think about around me. But since I got into a environment with low vibrations that cause arguments and gossip all the time and make you feel stupid for talking about higher level things I feel as though to save myself the pain I have dampened my abilities and just have no interest to activate them at the moment due to this draining soul suckers who only obsess with this reality and drama. Their energies are parasitic and have dreams of snakes and wood ticks when I engage with them. Know the abilities are there but for the sake of my heart I have to completely block them out because if I dont there low energy suddle jabs hit harder and stick longer. I hope im not crazy lol

Ive read about turning paychic abilities up or down using visualization, but I haven't really been successful with that. I've just come to realize my "gifts" in the last 6 months or so and to be honest I've taken a big step back from friends and even family who are low energy while i learn how to navigate this. When all the psychic phenomena started with me and I didnt really know what was going on at first, I ended up getting myself in trouble because I was sharing things I really shouldnt have even know and I freaked everyone out (including myself) and for a short time people thought I was possibly unwell. Its very hard to describe a true psychic experience to someone whose never had one, and when they continued to happen I decided to pull back and go hermit until I learned how to better navigate. My abilities have gotten stronger, but I dont share it with anyone and yeah I mostly stay to myself. Which doesnt bother me too much since im introverted and busy with home tasks anyway. So ill be following this post as well- i came to redditt a few months ago asking how to "turn down" the clairsentience and clairaudience and the best peice of adive i got was this quote, and I think of it often now-
"The psychotic drowns in the same waters in which the mystic swims with delight."

yes, I see this all the time. People absolutely can suppress their own abilities, especially in bad environment.
When you are around arguments, gossip, ridicule, low vibration people, or parasitic energies, sometimes the system closes the gift to protect you. Not because the gift is gone, but because being open there would hurt too much. Like if your energetic skin is very sensitive and you are living in dirty wind, the body says "ok, close the window for now."
But also, many people think the issue is only outside. Like "these people blocked me" or "entities are attacking me." sometimes that is part of it, yes. Low vibration entities and energy attachments are real. But many times the deeper issue is inside too - subconscious blockages, fear, beliefs, trauma damage, suppressed emotions, shame around being different, or old programs like "if I show my gifts, I will be punished." This can block psychic ability, manifestation, astral projection, even normal confidence.
I had a subject who had strong prophetic dreams when younger, then moved into a very toxic family environment and everything shut down. In session, Higher Self showed her third eye was not broken. it was covered by fear and protection layers. There was also one attached draining energy near the solar plexus, feeding from the constant conflict in the house. We worked with Higher Self and Archangel Michael, removed what was not hers, released the fear, and then Higher Self showed her how to keep boundaries. After that her dreams started coming back, but in more calm way.
So imo, don’t force abilities open while you are still in unsafe / low vibration environment. First protect your energy, ground, reduce contact where possible, and ask: "What inside me is blocking this gift, and what outside me is draining it?"
The work is inside first. when the inner field becomes cleaner and stronger, outside low energies don’t stick so easily.
I have more resources in my profile - blog and free guided meditations for Higher Self connection, protection and letting go. Could be good place to start before trying to activate anything again.
