  1. Does your partner ever ask, "Why are you so sensitive?" or "Why does this bother you so much?" 🤔 If you are a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), your brain processes emotional and sensory data more deeply than most. This can lead to incredible intimacy, but it can also lead to burnout if you don't have the right strategies.

  3. Sometimes when I try to build an IRL relationship, I'm reminded why I prefer hermitude.

    It goes like this: I feel comfy w/ someone so I open up about something - could be personal, could be societal - expecting agreement or at least understanding in response. Instead, their thinking is totally orthogonal to mine & they make me feel like a weirdo.

    It's not the actual disagreement that bugs me, but my misjudgment of what the other would think.

  8. I just found out about Highly Sensitive People and I totally relate. My skin is sensitive- I’m allergic to fragrances and acne-prone. My eyes are sensitive- almost always wearing sunglasses. My hearing is sensitive- live music and other loud sounds are not pleasurable.

    This also led me to self identifying as an ‘empath’, which sounds cooler than it is. It should really be called hyper-empathy syndrome, as described in the book, The Parable of the Sower.

    Anyone else relate?

  13. Here's a recent book I've created 🌻 I'm calling it, Traveling by Starlight: Learning to Trust My Intuition as an Empathic Creative. If I was to describe this book in three words, I would describe it as: Personal, Dreamy, and Heartfelt. I had fun creating the cover!

  19. Eating grapefruit & I'm reminded of the time me & Person X had to supply breakfast for a group. I talked over ideas with the host, we settled on store-bought croissants, muffins & grapefruit. At the breakfast literally nobody (except me) ate what I brought, not even the host who approved the items. Person X's food was finished & I had to bring home all my leftovers. I felt so embarrassed & slighted.

    This is why at any potluck I always make sure no dish is untouched.

  22. Dnes (6. 10.) je Medzinárodný deň vysokej citlivosti.

    👉 Vysoká citlivosť, známa aj ako hypersenzitivita, je osobnostná črta, ktorá sa vyznačuje intenzívnejším vnímaním zmyslových vnemov a výraznou citlivosťou.

    👉 Vyčerpanie, strata výkonnosti, znížená koncentrácia a pozornosť, kardiovaskulárne problémy, podráždenosť, úzkosť, poruchy spánku a dokonca aj tráviace poruchy sú opakujúcimi sa príznakmi u vysoko senzitívnych ľudí. V dôsledku nedostatočného pochopenia a dôveryhodnosti zo strany okolia sa znižuje ich vlastné sebavedomie a trpia, čo môže viesť k duševným ochoreniam (depresia, úzkostná porucha).

  27. @obrerx @actuallyautistic I'm a #HighlySensitivePerson and a good few of my friends identify with autism spectrum. One of whom even assumied i was the same way, but after a brief ponder i obviously wasn't. While we have a few traits in common, when it comes to interacting with people, we seem to be almost opposites. I'm speaking for myself, and fellow #HSP might not be completely the same way, however,

  28. Strobe lights are one of the largest banes of my existence. It’s difficult, and personally embarrassing, to be a highly sensitive jam band fan. #phish #highlysensitive #highlysensitiveperson #photosensitive #photosensitivity

  30. In a dream, I suspected I was dreaming, so I pinched myself. It hurt. Then I asked someone what year it was, and they said "1608." And then I knew!

    I wonder if my ability to feel pain in a dream is related to my ability to tickle myself? And I wonder if both are related to being highly sensitive. Any other HSPs out there?

  31. @guardian

    If somebody says to me "Man up", they're basically saying the way I'm acting doesn't conform with the recognised normal behaviour for a man.

    As a #HighlySensitivePerson #HSP I often don't conform with expectations as a man.

    I also feel hurt by the term #ManUp, and believe many men don't naturally conform, but are molded by society to do so, such that they don't feel out of place.

    This is particularly the case for teenagers and also gangs.

  32. This morning we had a thunderstorm, and while I was calmly sipping my hot black coffee, a sudden thunder clap was so loud that it majorly startled me and it felt like a bang in my heart. As an extremely Highly Sensitive Person and someone with misophonia, it took me a good while to calm down my chest.

    Then I wondered if anyone has ever had a heart attack from a thunder clap?!

    ✨Death by thunder.✨ Cheery, eh?!

  38. Hi all! I think now would be a good time to make my #introduction now that I've been here for a few days.

    My name is Camille. I #write about #spirituality, #mysticism, #healing, and being a #HighlySensitivePerson (#HSP) at my #blog HighlySpiritualPerson.com.

    You can also find my meditations on YouTube at youtube.com/@HighlySpiritualPe.

    I like #baking, #cooking, #videogames, #science, #stardew, #sobriety, #meditation, #nature, #fitness, #yoga, #travel, #reading, #embroidery, and being a #mom.
