Empath And Medium?

Let's start with number one. I had an imaginary friend when I was little and not the normal kind either but what imaginary friend is normal? I also constantly saw sprits, I still do but not as much because of my excessive fear. When my friend was dating this guy I saw his aura and got empathic readings from him that were rage and hatred and I was always exhausted when I was around him I told my friend she needed to stay clear of this guy, she learned her lesson in the end when he completely wore her down to almost an empty shell. Just recently I was staying in a cabin with my fiancé. He fell asleep and I started getting feelings of not being alone and started panicking just a bit. (this is something that I have dealt with since I was little). I couldn't believe it was happening to me at some cabin in the woods. I started some breathing exercises to help calm me down but instead meditating opened me up and a flood of images and information came through. I saw ankles and feet of an Indian walking around, I saw an old man who was proud of his daughter, but then I heard some sort of growl or moan in my ear and woke my fiancé up after that. I told him I need to leave and to get out of the cabin he totally understood and we left. As we drive away from the cabin I notice the moon is huge and is an orange/ red color, totally freaky I know! Just recently I have tried coming to terms that this is just something I'm born with and I need to stop being so fearful there is no reason to have panic attacks! It's unhealthy really. Last night I went to a cemetery, I know I know, but it was good practice. I walked up to this gate to open it and go inside and I jumped back because I saw a dog come charging at me when I blinked it was gone. I think I'm starting to like my gifts and I'm trying to develop them and see how far they can go.
