I've been trying to communicate to my friends how I've been feeling lately and they haven't heard me at all. I've wondered whether revealing how much I'm feeling is TOO much, and that's why they haven't reacted in the way I want, or understood. This has made me feel better - maybe it's not my feelings being too much at all
I feel like it's such a difficult time right now to find the balance between being honest about the support you need and also recognising that basically everyone is emotionally depleted after the last couple of years. You absolutely deserve to be heard and held in however you're feeling, I really hope there's someone you can reach to who has capacity! 💜
Thank you for this lovely reminder. I thought I was the only one with these many emotions before hearing this! It feels so good to know that I'm not the only one and that this is totally okay ^^
People keep telling me I'm too sensitive and to be honest it makes me angry inside. It makes me feel lost and very sad. I shut down and stay inside my head so people won't judge me. This leads to people asking me why I'm so quite and what's wrong with you...
I'm happy with being highly empathic and tell my girls they are fine in feeling so much but it's a struggle as well. It hurts when people tell me I'm too sensitive or too emotional. That's not what I want my girls to feel.
Thank you for sharing this and setting my train of thoughts in motion.
As a highly empathic person I 100% relate to this. Was always pegged as "overly sensitive" growing up. Now I appreciate my ability for the skill it is 🙏 knowing how to relate to and read others, fostering adaptability and communication, heightening appreciation for outside perspectives... Wouldn't trade it for the world.
