I'm having to learn to trust my instincts again. I was married to someone who gaslighted me for a long time and I learned to doubt every single thing I thought was true. When it turned out I was right all along, I knew my instincts had been good. Coming back to trusting them is a process I have to work on, though.

I tend to know if someone has a secret and what their personality is like. I also an quite reliable on knowing how someone is going to react and can stop the problem before it starts. It is a good ability to have, especially for me because arguments make me feel sick! My gut tells me this, but I use my brain a lot as well.

I trust my instincts because so far I haven't had any horrible regrets from doing so. They've gotten me to the places I need to be and to the wonderful people I need right now in life!

although generally my instincts are correct, I've just over looked them and kept going in the opposite direction. if I listen to them I wouldn't be in the situation I'm in.

I'm just trying to learn all over again.

a woman's intuition is almost always correct.

Nope. I am very dense and my instincts tend to be obscured by my feelings, so usually i'd stick with logic if i can

I do. However, unfortunately I don't always act on how my instincts tell me to act. I am aware of the situation but tend to go more with my heart.

I haven't trusted my instincts in a few weeks, seems like with anxiety and depression I'm not sure what to trust anymore. Nothing feels good. If I go left I doubt myself about it and thought I should have gone right. I have that feeling that I don't remember how to trust me anymore

Sometimes yes and sometimes no! I depends on the situation!
