past lives probably aren't real and this is kind of more or less a story based on the "past life", anyway.

i feel like the past life was really connected to the portuguese, english, french, and german language.

in the story, he's a young man/teen when he dies and he committed suicide due to being bullied. he lived in rio de janeiro. again, i don't know if past lives are real or how they died if it was real, but this is kind of a story i feel connected to. you can ask me more about it

There are so many accounts of people experiencing past lives that I don't doubt it's real. I don't know if we reincarnate 1 to 1 to become someone else, or are capable of sensing 'vibes' from other people's lives in the past, but some cases are so detailed and full of verifiable facts that it's evident there's something to it. You can search for James Matlock who is currently studying these phenomena - and maybe even contact him with your case. You could try to find who was this young man you feel connected to. When did he live? Do you have a name, or any other facts to actually identify him? If some family of this person are still alive maybe he has some unfinished business, or a message he would like to pass to them.

Write down what you experience, and don't write it off. This stuff is very real and if you happen to be aware of it there's probably something that needs resolving.

i suspect sometime in the 90s-00s, not really a name, but the people i was friends with called him clássica because i remember that he mispronounced "classic/classical" (he's from rio), killed himself by jumping off a building and posted a suicide note online with his self-inflicted injuries

What other details do you have about him? Have you ever tried to find who was this person? Do you speak Portuguese? And how did you come upon knowing about him? Sorry about so many questions, but I find past life experiences an extremely interesting topic. Can't say I remember past lives I've lived myself, but I do get the occasional vibe from people of the past in certain places and feel a connection to certain ancestors but that's different from remembering being someone else.

I have a friend who lived a whole, many decade-long life in a vivid dream once. It had profound beneficial impact on her actual life.

Whether real or not, you should document it and try to understand the deep personal meaning from experiences like that.

All I can say is that maybe you need to start writing it.
