Hello. Can some one help me with something please?

I'll start at the beginning.

My friend told me that he would sometimes get this tingle down his back, then his eyes would clamp shut and he would get these obscure images in his head (usually about an object, a person or a place) which only last for a couple of seconds. He put this down to an over-active imagination. However this has started happening when he touches things (desks, photo albums, even the toilet!). He is beginning to think he is mad, as he thinks he is imagining it all. Lately however the frequency of these visions is increasing and so is their clarity. One time he touched his sister's badminton competition form and saw a girl playing the sport and kicking butt at it. He wasn't sure if it was his sister or not. Also, he touched his niece's photo album and saw her standing next to a large water fountain (the photos showed his niece in Spain). This is not only freaking him out but I'm becoming disturbed also.

From time to time he also gets things about the future correct too. For instance he would be talking to someone and for no apparent reason would know something about the future. For example, he knew his best friend would get together with his sister and it happened a year later - despite the fact that neither of them showed any interest in the other.

He has also become really sensitive - which I just thought was depression - but he can't stand being around others as he would get extremely depressed really fast and easily. He also gets easily stressed in crowds of people.

I researched this and I believe it is clairsentience. What do you others think?
