That's easy. It doesn't work that way.
You get information the same way your mind works at present. You don't get taken over by someone else's mind. That is channeling and that is a different connection. Channelers are unaware as a rule what is coming through when another entitiy speaks through them.
I am empathetic. It has nothing to do with having a problem telling me from someone else. I can feel what you are feeling. That is all. It's still me and my opinion. When I have had psychic experiences, my mind is contacted and receiving intuitive thoughts just like you do when you get any idea.
I just can tell instinctually that an important piece of information is coming to me that I should pay attention to or not. Sometimes I get an experience and do not realize what it was until much later, but my own mind is always operating and aware of what is up.
Star Wars, I think it's 2 or 3.
Much as you can tell the difference between having a fever and overheating from being in the hot sun. One comes from within and the other from an outside source.
