Wow. I didn't think there would be a thread about this on ATS!
For me it started about 10 months ago. I started to notice 11:11 on the digital clocks all around my house. At first I just brushed it off as a silly
coincidence, until it became so frequent that I was forced to realize that it wasn't just a random occurrence. Then a few months later I started
seeing 1:11 and 4:44, with the exact same eerily precise consistency that I was seeing 11:11. Now I see all three sets of those numbers, every day and
night. In public, in cars, at home. Not just on clocks anymore either. I always get this weird "feeling" to look at the time display on stereos when
music is playing, and when I do, it's always right when the song is at 1:11 or 4:44. The other night I was at someone's house when a hockey game was
on in the other room. Now, I don't like ANY sport and never have, but for some reason I got this weird curiosity to walk into the other room to see
what the score was, which was weird enough because I never care lol... but when I walked in, the time left in the period was exactly 11:11 when I
looked at the score display. Two weeks ago I was buying cigarettes in a gas station, and when I buy cigarettes I always just leave without taking the
receipt, because there's really no point in keeping it. But this time I wanted it for some reason and waited until it was handed to me. When I got
outside I got this weird urge to read it, and the exact time was 4:44:44 PM (the last 44 being seconds I suppose.)
There have also been two separate incidents when I went to sleep early because I was tired, and ended up waking a few hours later right when the clock
was at 11:11 P.M. Last month I was walking past one of those multi-story parking lots, and the sign at the entrance said "Maximum Headroom - 11 feet
11 inches". It started out with just clocks, occurring twice a day at most, but now it's everywhere I look,
everywhere... and it is getting
seemingly more and more frequent with every week that goes by. And I'm honestly not looking for these numbers on purpose. I always just get this
unexplainable urge or "feeling" to look in a certain direction, or look at a clock, even if I'm really busy. I know that this is too weird to just
brush off as a coincidence, because this is being force-fed to me all the time. This HAS to be some kind of conscious synchronicity. I never thought I
would say something like that, because I always used to laugh whenever I read about things like this. When I first noticed that this was becoming more
than a coincidence, I googled "11:11" just out of curiosity, and what I saw
astounded me: Thousands upon
thousands of people who were
experiencing exactly the same thing. That was when I knew that this was much more than just my mind playing tricks on me.
This might seem off topic, but about two weeks before I started noticing these numbers I had decided to detoxify myself and quit taking an
anti-anxiety medication that I had been taking for years. Once I was completely free of the medication, I noticed that I no longer needed it because I
wasn't getting anxiety attacks anymore. Everything improved once the drug was out of my system. I regained old interests that I hadn't cared about
in years, I became more optimistic, my sense of humor drastically improved and went back to the way it was when I was a happy child. I realized that
the medication was doing something to my brain chemistry that robbed me of my true personality. And then two weeks later I started noticing these
numbers. This is probably going to sound absurd, and I fully expect to be flamed and ridiculed for asking this, but is it possible that these numbers
were telling me that I did the right thing by detoxifying my body and mind?
One last thing. If anyone else is interested in reading about the 11:11 experiences that others are having, you should definitely take a look at the
11:11 archives on the Great Dreams website. It is run by a couple who have been receiving emails
about this since 1996. They have published every single one of them in the archives. It only took me about a week to read every single email, and it
was worth every minute. Very interesting stuff!
