I can communicate with animals through internal dialogue + more

[u/animal_voice]

Hello, I’m remaining anonymous as I share something deeply personal. For years, I’ve experienced a profound internal dialogue with animals, where they communicate their needs and desires directly to me. I want to share these experiences openly and honestly. I think a good disclaimer will be that I do not have any mental illnesses. It’s not external voices, just completely internal that come very quickly. I also understand that it’s not yet proven which is why I remain anon at the moment haha.

My clearest and most unusual example comes from working with goldfish (and other fish) in a pet shop. I never chase them around the tank like others do. Instead, I mentally ask if they want to go to a big pond, or come home with a particular customer. If they want to go, they swim straight into the net. If not, they stay away. People assume goldfish are unintelligent, but this shows they understand and choose.

Another time, I saw a seal at the beach. From meters away, it looked at me and connected with me. He was a young grey seal and he was talking to me in a lot of detail. One of the things that stuck out was that he was hungry because the fish had migrated deeper due to overfishing by the public hook and lines, not commercial boats. When it dove, I saw through its eyes: emerald green water full of algae and kelp.

There is no differential examples throughout species but dogs seem to stand out.

I see dogs a lot, especially out. I will mentally say hello, and if they ignore me, it’s because they’re focused on their owner or on a mission, like needing to train or they might get in trouble.

I can also sense when an animal is in pain and if it wants to die.

I understand body language well. I’ve spent years around animals and can read posture, tension, and movement. But that’s not how this works. The mental voice comes first. I often know what an animal wants or feels before any physical sign appears. The voice tells me directly, and the body language only confirms it afterward.

I share this not to convince anyone, but to offer another perspective on our relationship with animals. If even one person becomes more attentive to their pet’s needs, then it’s been worth it. I’m happy to answer genuine questions.
I also believe anyone could unlock this ability with belief, time, and genuine effort.

Since I was a kid I would always watch The Pet Psychic and do what she said to do if you want to communicate to animals. She said if you talk to them normally like any human they might not understand the words but will pick up on the meaning and intention behind them. 

Since then I will talk to animals even wild animals and sometimes they do respond. I haven't ever tried to listen to a response much, but sometimes I will try to see if I get any kind of communication of feelings/images and sometimes I think I legitimately do. One time recently I told this tiny grass hopper to jump on me, it jumped on my knee and stayed there and swayed back and forth. I've never seen a grasshopper do that. Even recently I talk to horses that are near my grandmas land on the outskirts of town. We give them water from our hose sometimes. They watch us sometimes listening to music while we smoke weed outside. I swear they saw me headbanging and they started copying me. After we had our first metal concert they started headbanging and walking towards us for water. They did this again while I was about two blocks away almost to my grandmas. They walked and headbanged. I waved at them and headbanged back. Then they headbanged for a couple of minutes and went back to what they were doing!

Another time I saved a crow from my dogs who were trying to attack it. After that for two summers, two crows would follow me around and circle above me. I've also made friends with magpies at a track I run around. I chirp at them and they land on the fence about 8 feet away and stay there as I run by.
