Is anyone else here a highly sensitive person?
That really sucks. It destroys your social development.I used to be highly sensitive and overly empathetic till years of bullying and ostracism made me colder and appear stone faced and emotionless
Same.I used to be highly sensitive and overly empathetic till years of bullying and ostracism made me colder and appear stone faced and emotionless
Sure doesThat really sucks. It destroys your social development.
How do you figure that? I used to be way too sensitive to what people said about me till I adopted a more no fucks given attitude when I realized their opinions are worthlessThat’s not a highly sensitive person though.
Same. I also was overly empathetic as a child but these days Im the opposite. I still am quite impulsive thoughI used to be highly sensitive and overly empathetic till years of bullying and ostracism made me colder and appear stone faced and emotionless
Same. I'm also impulsive and don't plan ahead much.Same. I also was overly empathetic as a child but these days Im the opposite. I still am quite impulsive though
I think you should look it up. Being a highly sensitive person means you’re sensitive to all forms of stimuli. Whether it’s noises (even very small noises), people’s presence nearby, getting criticized etc.Sure does

A lot of that applies to me honestlyI think you should look it up. Being a highly sensitive person means you’re sensitive to all forms of stimuli. Whether it’s noises (even very small noises), people’s presence nearby, getting criticized etc. View attachment 1222853
I’ll only really empathetic to cats. I love cats so much, as they greatly reflect the gentleness that I love and the sensitivity that I possess.Same. I also was overly empathetic as a child but these days Im the opposite. I still am quite impulsive though
Do you get upset by just the 2-seconds-long noise of a loud motorbike that passes by you on the street, for example?A lot of that applies to me honestly
Tbh yes. I hate noise.Do you get upset by just the 2-seconds-long noise of a loud motorbike that passes by you on the street, for example?
1. Dislikes violence: used to dislike it, nowadays Im mostly desenzitised to itI think you should look it up. Being a highly sensitive person means you’re sensitive to all forms of stimuli.

I can totally relate. I think vaccines made my sensitivity far worse because now I can barely control my emotions even in the slightest way.Tbh yes. I hate noise.
Which vaccines? Covid?I can totally relate. I think vaccines made my sensitivity far worse because now I can barely control my emotions even in the slightest way.
I've managed to kill most of my sensitivity. It was very painful. Dissociation helped but it can also make you more retarded. And I'm just trying to kill the rest of my sensitivity with not giving a shit.How do you handle live as a highly sensitive person?
No. I haven’t jabbed myself with Covid vaccines at all. Childhood vaccines.Which vaccines? Covid?

I just put myself in situtations that are uncomfortable and gritted my teeth. It works but it can be painful, you have to take in a lot and you have to accept that sometimes you are just going to fuck it up and that you may get into problems because of it.I see. That’s good. How did you do it? I think I need to use EMDR and hypnosis to reduce my sensitivity.
I think acceptance helps, but I literally cannot do that. I end up crying or becoming overwhelmed fast. I think I have to try those therapies that I mentioned first.I just put myself in situtations that are uncomfortable and gritted my teeth.

Hell no, I love engines (as long as I'm not trying to sleep of course). Snoring drives me insane and the sound of people breathing loudly bothers me like crazy though. Also, noise outside while I try to sleep drives me nutsDo you get upset by just the 2-seconds-long noise of a loud motorbike that passes by you on the street, for example?
All of those things including motor noises drive me crazy fast. So idk if you really have it.Hell no, I love engines (as long as I'm not trying to sleep of course).

I'm a major car guy, so engine noise ain't gonna bother me unless I'm trying to sleep. I regularly use loud and powerful riding mowers to cut grass, and drive a muscle car occasionally. Other noises bother me a lot though sometimesAll of those things including motor noises drive me crazy fast. So idk if you really have it.
Hmm. Then you could be HSPI'm a major car guy, so engine noise ain't gonna bother me unless I'm trying to sleep. I regularly use loud and powerful riding mowers to cut grass, and drive a muscle car occasionally. Other noises bother me a lot though sometimes
YepHmm. Then you could be HSP
Same, Im such a bitch and I hate myself. I don't know if therapies would help with that thoughI think acceptance helps, but I literally cannot do that. I end up crying or becoming overwhelmed fast. I think I have to try those therapies that I mentioned first.
Yes I can relate to that too. Many users here think Im a sensitive and retarded piece of shit which is true realistically speakingi am very sensitive i think many users here noticed that from me
Whatever works for youI think acceptance helps, but I literally cannot do that. I end up crying or becoming overwhelmed fast. I think I have to try those therapies that I mentioned first.
