Exactly...whether the advice is sound or not, when the underlying attitude comes off like "I know better than you" it sets off alarm bells.

adding that not acknowledging that there is a pervasive problem is complete denial... something i really don't buy.

You mean to tell me you don’t rely solely on your psychic abilities?  :o

This post just reminded me of another tip that might help you get better readings: SET REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS.

If you go into a reading expecting the psychic to know everything about you right off and everything about your future, you are going to be disappointed every time. Maybe before you spend money on a psychic reading, you should learn a little bit more about how psychic abilities work and what they feel like to the psychic. I’m hoping I’m getting some of that part of our experience across in my posts, but I want to make that point loud and clear: WE ARE NOT OMNISCIENT.

Even setting the actual psychic ability aside, correctly interpreting the information we receive is a whole other set of skills we have to develop, and that is where our human fallibility comes into play the most. What we see might be totally right on, but how we interpret it? Trial and error is really the only way for us to improve on that.

So to set realistic expectation, I think learning about how psychic ability works will help, paying attention to the specific area of ability the psychic advertises on their listing so you know you’re calling the right person for the answers you need, and also going into the reading knowing what you want to get out of it. Think about your question and what kind of information you want to leave the reading with before you call, and ask yourself if you are really receptive to what they have to say for better or worse. If you aren’t open to hearing them out or facing the reality of your situation, if you aren’t seeking ways to improve your own situation, or if you just feel bad and want to know it’s all going to be okay, don’t call them. You can call actual certified therapists on LivePerson, or seek out self-help topics online, like “How to release an ex,” or “How to get out of a career rut.” Don’t call unless you have a specific area of your life you are trying to work on and need some insight on how to sort it out or which steps to take next, or if someone in your life is confusing you and you need some insight on their intentions or feelings. I think that's what we're here for.

This is important. But a lot of times you won't know how they work until you use them. Of all ofthe genuinely gifted psychics I've tried, no two had the same style. Theres no one way of being an empath, and theres no one way of remote viewing or seeing clairvoyantly. And then there is the way that they impart the information they get. I do agree that seeing a therapist is cheaper if you just want to unload emotionally and are not looking for straightforward insight/predictions.

So how can a psychic not see how a person going to act? So if we don't followed there advice it won't come true? What if they are just wrong period. CLEAR SPIRIT INTUITIVE may be the psychic that have been right for me she said that my poi is acting what she feel and she want nothing to do with me it was a long time ago and I didn't listen and keep on calling because 95 percent of the psychic said yes she has true and deep feeling for me.

Aw....well I'm not knocking you for laughing but I didn't mean it humorously. It reminds me of times when I would get a reading from someone with a similar kind of attitude, and I was too mixed up to realize that they were giving me bad advice or invalidating what I had to say...and I would end up thanking them for it. It was a really horrible place to be in...I don't want to assume that I'm fully past it, but I know I never, ever want to be there again. And I truly feel bad for people who buy into these ideas, like there is a right/wrong way to get readings and if we don't follow the readers advice then we are the ones who screwed up. I have to say, in some cases it was following a readers advice that made a situation worse, or in other cases, if I had followed their advice, I would be in serious dire straits right now.

Finding this forum was the best thing for me, there are other things that helped me too but ultimately reading the feedback here is what helped the most.

@still tired, I typed a long response to this, then deleted it... and am going to try to say what I said earlier more succinctly and -- hopefully -- graciously.

Essentially, I was trying to say that your post implies that those of us who have thanked pprincess for her posts must be: "too mixed up to realize that [she is] giving ... bad advice". And although I believe you are coming from a place of caring (for other forum users) when you say that, it's mildly insulting and patronizing and certainly not true for me. I am not too mixed up, and I am perfectly capable of reading through her posts and discerning what is useful information (for me). As it turns out, I don't agree with everything she's said, but there are certainly some insights that I find valuable as someone who gets readings.

If you don't, that's fine, but please don't make assumptions about others on here... based on your own past experience. We're all different and entitled to our own opinions and perspectives. I, for one, find it interesting to hear from a keen reader about their experience and related advice. And I am aware enough to be able to take what they say with a grain of salt and understand it doesn't apply to all readers. So, thanks for your concern but there's no need to feel sad or sorry for me...
