  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?

  12. 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!

  21. 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.

  32. 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).

  36. @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,
