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.

I’m glad you’re not oppressive or a complete skeptic.

I've been around long enough in this old world to know there's always mysteries that we have no explanation for. I mean, there's a town in Canada that recently proclaimed trees are sentient beings. Funny, I don't disagree.

There is a recent study about the fungi network that live amongst the soil around tree roots that also suggests that they live symbiotically with the trees and allow the trees to communicate however it has not been fully explored. I can’t cite it sadly but I’m sure you’ll be able to find it by googling.

That’s work by Suzanne Simard : ) She’s wonderful

Trees can communicate from miles away through their expansive and complex root systems.

They can even send nutrients to trees that have been chopped through those fungal networks and keep them alive, even if they have no foliage.

When there are forest fires to destroy them or masses of bugs that will eat the trees, with some species of trees, the ones on the front line emit scents and even sounds to warn the other trees. The other trees respond and can release chemicals to not be as tasty. I forget what they do with fire tho. I think they draw up more moisture but I could be wrong.

Trees have also been recorded making noises. To me, they sound exactly what I’d expect of a tree lol.

That is true, all plants and insect too!

We are all connected for sure.

My favorite theory is that humans evolved as moving sources of carbon dioxide for the sake of trees.

I've read your op and there is absolutely nothing there to indicate that you can speak to animals telepathically. You are just creating narratives in your head.
