For everyone who's as annoyed by the robot voice as I am: 3:01 *sensitivity in empathy:* mirror neurons are much more active in HSPs -> stronger mirroring of other people's feelings (whether they're loved ones or strangers) => easily overwhelmed, e.g. when watching a horror movie 4:56 *sensitivity in awareness:* more brain activity in the insula & cingulate area -> HSPs are more attuned to what's going on internally & externally 6:04 *sensitivity in emotional vividness:* HSPs have a gene variant that leads to more blood flow in the pre-frontal cortex -> amplifies deep processing of large sensory data (contemplating/planning/expressing personality etc.) => HSPs see the world differently & with more emotional vividness 7:17 *sensitivity in subtlety/genuineness:* different system of "reward hormone" dopamine -> HSPs are less driven by external rewards (bigger pay/social circle/competition) that trigger dopamine release in non-HSPs => instead, meaningful and genuine moments are much more pleasurable and less overwhelming for HSPs 8:28 *sensitivity in neural processing:* carrying short-short variation of the serotonin transporter (="feel good hormone" transporter) -> this variation is associated with depression & other emotional issues -> doesn't necessarily lead to depression. Instead, HSPs are more sensitive to both positive and negative triggers => more overwhelmed due to enhanced neural processing of environment
Had a company have a robot/AI voice call me for doing a take-home version of a medical test. Its imitation female voice had a nearly nails on the chalkboard tone to it. Strike one. It moved through things too quickly for me to keep up with. Strike two. And since it was a robot/AI there was no human to which to say, "hey, wait a minute, slow down, and what was that again?" Strike three. I had to hang up on it, the thing was too stressful. And they did it again a couple days later. Strike four. And once more a couple days after that. Strike five.

Cut off/get away from toxic/harmful people if you are able to. You have God-given authority to protect your nervous system, emotional well being and peace.
Well said, but running away from toxic ppl is only half of the solution...A human being is not made for living alone and in most cases as a survivor of a contact to a toxic person there are no friends left...So how to deal with that point ?
@Terri Larsen It takes sensitive ppl around you, who are willed to protect you from the flying monkeys, stalking and who care for your feelings and an environment, who takes the responsibility for failing to protect you !
Sometimes we are not always aware that the people around us are secretly sabotaging our: relationships, friendships, dreams, hopes and happiness. Toxic people often act out their true intentions covertly. Make sure the people in the boat with you, are not drilling holes in it when you are not looking. Covert enemies whether: Family, friends, community or relationships must be weeded out and removed or we remove ourselves. Life is too short to be spent unhappy. If you can handle the truth and 'tough' love, check out 'Tyler JTI' on RUclips. He will tell you straight what's really going on and how to handle it. It won't be easy. It might get lonely. But eventually you realise that God and yourself is enough. Anything else is a bonus if/when it comes.
I was always criticized as being too sensitive and overthinking things. I was raised in a sea of assholes who didn't get me at all and it caused major damage.
I'm an HSP with a strong personality. I have emotional intelligence in abundance. sometimes I wish I didn't have to feel so deeply but overall I'm happy that I have this trait.
@@Allen204 You need to understand yourself. The triggers, and your reactions. This gives you the ability to understand others triggers and reactions. This should help you in building relationships, but it isn't easy, because most people are selfish and not good friends or partners. And you can't find happiness with those energies.
May every HSPs meet other HSPs. Honestly when you feel something deeply you are easily hurt by people's words even though they have no intention of actually hurting you. Only an HSP can understand another HSP. We are the ones who'll think twice before saying something as we don't want to hurt other peoples feelings as we know what it feels like.
It happen to me every day. I know possible they dont do express, but It feels as i dont have skin and all go deeply inside my soul... Its a shame , but i have to protext for this persons....otherwise i am in danger...
This is definitely me. I cannot stand any harm coming to humans, animals, earth and environment. I wish I did not feel so deeply about situations.I cannot bear tv adverts where animals or humans are distressed.
Thank you for sharing this. It's nice to finally know, on a physiological level, why I'm this way. I sometimes wish I had less empathy. It's hard to have a good, happy day, when you're constantly feeling the stress, sadness, etc, of other people. It's not a bad thing, but it is overwhelming at times. Big hugs to all other HSP's!
I’m so glad this video exists. I always feel so lonely and out of place in many high energy/high stimulus environments and want it to end. But then I feel like a jerk for leaving a situation where everyone else is “having fun.” And everyone just thinks I’m too sensitive or too emotional like having feelings is not normal.
You are not alone Mary. I have always been labelled as Odd Eccentric Abnormal Crazy even 😀 Because I avoided trips and play as a child, big family gathering in holidays, teenage rage parties and just sat alone in a dim lit room reading something interesting or contemplating a thought provoking event.
@@angieeissa8679 Don't you listen to or believe those labels. Abusive people called me all those names, too. THEY ARE WRONG! They were wrong about you. You are a caring and intelligent person.
Hey, I can't stand funerals but, you know there will be 500 people there like it's some sort of spectator sport. I used to care what other people thought of me. Not any more. If they have hundreds of people there to give them sympathy why do I have to give it to them, too?
I am a HSP. I can feel other people's pain, as if happened to me. I can walk in a room where people are and pick up the mood they are in, even if they don't say anything.
You literally might have just saved my life. I’ve been so confused and blaming myself for being so different I tried to get help but I was just sent to a psychiatrist that just experimented different medication’s on me for a year and a half with nothing working never explaining how my serotonin and dopamine actually worked. They never even told me I was an HSP they just Diagnosed me with chronic anxiety and chronic depression. I relate to almost everything an HSP has the more I look into personality traits but the biological differences I had no idea I’ll be looking more into this thanks so much 🌹

HSP can be mistaken for something else. I thought I was an undiagnosed adult autistic in the beginning. If you susoect you have the trait talk to your doctor. I did and it helped figure out a lot about my illnesses, pain, and my depression. Stress will make us physically sick . Years of it was literally killing me. The short of it is that this DNA trait makes us sensitive to everything but when you know and learn about yourself you'll see it as a super power. A hard learned one.
@@nicoleclavel5836I got caught in that dark place where emotional, physical and mental pains, with a dash of financial, take you. The only way to get out is to let the darkness finish consuming you entirely.... Or a power within you forces you to awaken and you begin to become what you are. Pain is our best teacher, and if you are blessed to learn the lessons from it, you will evolve.
Yes, I'm 75 and just recently am learning about this in the last year. I started out thinking I had Aspergers, then realized that wasn't quite it. Started looking into the HSP and that nailed it for me. What a relief and am now learning to enjoy it, live with it, and know what to avoid. It's wonderful to finally know why I'm a little different. "Odd and proud of it"!
@@hccarson7938We are not odd hun..... I think of us as humanity's empathy. It needs us and I believe more of us are waking up to who we are because of it.
Oh my god. You totally describe my experience. Stress seems to totally kill me. More so than others it seems. Been called over sensitive. Or told I should not be so defensive. Am great at other tasks requiring empathetic listening and support. I seem to totally 'tune in' to people, even just on the phone. But now hit huge melt down as cant cope with other aspects of work, causing me deadly stress. Am now kn burnout mode and an odd type of depression. Feels like total overdrive and killing of emotions at same time. Horrible. The worst is feeling like I'm letting vulnerable people down.

Sometimes my empathy ability makes it hard for me to function. A lot of time I can't separate how I am feeling, versus the feelings and energy of others I am picking up on. I usually sit down with pen and paper to work it out and disentangle it. But I can't do this everyday, there's no time, so it often builds and builds. Sigh.
I can feel you! It’s me too I have been writing for years but I stopped now and the only way I have found out so far is staying more contained in my own self bcz I feel like surroundings are mostly negative and toxic and I can be driven by it and get deeply saddened or I loose my track.. I spend time meditating or learning music.. learning about spiritual life, am on my journey to explore myself! It’s peaceful and very rewarding!!!
I so know how you feel. For me yoga helped me to truly feel my own body and my own energies and learn where my energies ends and others begin. Before that I always felt like I was so fluid and floating and I could not keep off other peoples energies, emotions or pain. Only when I learned to feel and set my own boundaries I could start to hold space for others without “soaking up” their pain.
I recommend that you do write the story; then apply spiritual principles I have been doing this 20 years, have over 50 stories. There is a common thread through the stories, your empath abilities.
Once I discovered I was an HSP, so many "detriments" became gifts and I've been able to channel it positively. But being highly empathic, it can be a struggle. Having a biological reason helps satisfy the logical, dominate part of my brain 🙄
It also helps satisfy the department of my trauma that it's not my fault, it's not bad, it's a gift, and it's the insensitive people who are the problem ....who I constantly attract.
I think I fall into this category as I hate being in crowds or where there’s too much noise. I have to be in a peaceful beautiful environment for my own well being which is why I love nature. I also can’t watch violence or bad treatment to animals or humans as I feel emotions quite strongly so it’s good to feel it’s an asset rather than a negative.
Thank You for sharing. It does sound like you are a HSP. If you would like further clarity please also check out this video ruclips.net/video/Xz6Ar_LD2qM/видео.html According to Dr. Aron all HSPs have these 4 traits regardless of their background, gender, life experiences. : )
I first heard of HSP's from Elaine Aron's book, which was a Godsend to me then. As a highly creative person and a highly sensitive person, I thank her and anyone advancing the study of the HSP traits!
This is so great! I'm an HSP and love knowing that there is a biological basis. It's difficult but I've learned how to deal with being an HSP mostly by understanding what I need versus doing what people want. Love your uniqueness.

I spend at least one hour a day listening to positive youtube channels to set my emotions to positive. And I am learning to get closer to people and animals who are in need of help. I been giving financially because I know my sadness will dysfunctional me if I am face to face with suffering. After watching this video, I no longer think it's because I'm weak inside, no, I'm just born more sensitive.

I've started reversing this with a friend who says I am too sensitive. She can't detect anything, senses nothing, has no early warning system and complains as a result that she can't pick up atmospheres or sense soul energy, that she hasn't felt her deceased husband around her and I tell her, it's because you aren't sensitive enough.
Very well said.❣️ Having many difficult days…I get to the point of repeating over & over, don’t think…don’t feel” which of course isn’t possible. No one I know understands.
This is spot on and really good! But being I’m a HSP by about 2:30, the monotone of the video was agitating me so badly. But aside from that, this is really an awesome, concise explanation. Thank you!
When I was pregnant with my daughter I could literally feel her growing/ vibrating in me especially around 8 weeks 🙃 ❤ I'm very in tune with my body for sure.

As a highly sensitive person, I suffer the most from manipulative people. Also here main things an HSP live with through their life: 1- Obsessions 2- Phobias 3- Anxiety all the time 4- Weak personality 5- Overthinking 6- Approval addiction Also it can develop toxic attachment to other people. What you have to do is to care less about other people. Have a good love for yourself more than other people. Help people genuinely without seeking acceptance. Say no when it is necessary. Avoid toxic people and narcissists manipulative people. Have more than 3 friends. Avoid hanging out too much with one person. Avoid hanging out with abusive person and don't be shy to say stop. You need a lot of patience to go through and probably you will never go through because it is a nightmare.

It's easy to do most of the suggestions you listed, but how is an HSP to find more than 3 friends?! LOL. It's difficult enough to find one. If you have any tips to find friends as an HSP I would honestly appreciate it. Most people I meet, that I think I'll get along with, actually end up being "incompatible" for a lot of reasons, mostly due to vastly different interests and the fact that they don't have sensory processing sensitivity, which means they might want to invite me to a party, loud event etc. and I won't be glad to come. I thought there was something wrong with me, but deep down there's a "voice" that tells me to stop forcing myself to hang out with people I know I am incompatible with.
I always knew I was extremely sensitive and, in my early 20s, was prescribed antidepressants and Xanax. My doctor never asked me about my lifestyle or anything-very quick to prescribe. I was not eating healthy really at all, drank alcohol, and was fairly active, but not taking great care of myself while in college. I went on to take antidepressants for 10 years and was basically numb throughout my 20s and still had many periods of depression and days that I could barely make it to work. When I turned 30, I decided I didn't want to take any medication and began my journey of healing and self-acceptance. I'm almost 36 now and getting off of these numbing drugs was the best decision I ever made. I focused on exercise (walking, yoga, weight lifting, biking, dance), eating healthier (more whole foods, less processed), limiting alcohol, not surrounding myself with assholes, having boundaries, and read so many books to help me through my holistic healing journey. Since getting off antidepressants and birth control, I've also lost 35 pounds and am able to actually FEEL again. It is a struggle to be an HSP, but we have many superpowers as well. When you stop numbing yourself with drugs, food, alcohol, shopping, etc., you will really start to get to know yourself and many people around you will not understand why you "changed". Choose yourself. It's worth it. (*also, I know getting off medication is not for everyone and some people truly need it to function; this was the best decision for me personally) ❤
Whoa!! You saying, "when you choose to stop numbing yourself via food, shopping etc" it really opened my eyes. I have struggled with those two things for years. I never really looked at it as "numbing my HSP" but as a distraction or addictive like behavior instead bc i was lonely or depressed etc. But numbing the pain makes so much sense!! I feel like its provided a new way to tackle the root cause and not just the symptoms/problems which I've tried several times and failed. Thank you my fellow HSP!
When I was on my 20s I self diagnosed myself with noise anxiety. I told my children becus I had noise anxiety we could only do one thing at a time listen to the radio or talk we can't do both.
I always told my children "Mama's ears are tired and need a nap" when I was on sensory overload. They came to understand that quiet time was needed for a little while.
Bless your heart for this beautifully written way to describe the exact thing I personally go through. If you don’t mind.....I’m now using this same way to explain bc the way I keep stating about noise and all the OTHER sounds I’m sensing /processing makes me deficient in hearing speech being spoke thru all of that 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️😳😳😳😱😱😱
I came here after an afternoon in the company of a group of people all talking in an echoey room and with a lady near me who was very loud and spoke a lot. I was becoming increasingly desperate to get away. It has taken me hours and hours and it is only this channel which has restored some of my equilibrium.
I had a mother who abandoned me at a young age and a narcissistic father who gave me everything I ever wanted but he lacked the tenderness and warmth that a highly sensitive child needed. Thank god for my grandma who had a big role in my life and gave me the nurturing side I needed. I sometimes think without her I could have possibly turned into a very dark person as actually is very much the case for motherless children. My grandma honed in on my high sensitivity and encouraged it, where to my father I was always told to “stop being so sensitive”.

I grew up as an HSP boy and received zero nurturing. Two of my grandparents were deceased, and two lived thousands of miles away. As I came of age, all attempts to find a girl or a woman to develop a lasting relationship failed. Hence no nurturing basically my entire life. Now I am 66 years old. Women pretty much all of them, at least the ones I desired, saw my sensitivity as weakness and lacking in masculinity. Some even came out and told me I was too sensitive. Sharing my feelings with them sent them all running. I am now retired and spend almost all of my time alone, as far as humans go. I do have certain interactions, mostly involving music or dogs. A couple of hours a week at church. I can use sensitivity to sing and play guitar and provide music with deep feeling and emotion. I can also get along with dogs and somehow communicate with them in ways that no one else can really understand. So I use this to help out adopting out rescued dogs. I just have one dog which is mellow almost all of the time. An active yippy dog or multiple dogs would drive me nuts. Only in recent years have I come to understand various aspects of being an HSP. This video was very helpful in furthering my understanding.
I identify as HSP & empath… ive seen a handful of therapist over the years… all but one were useless but that one best therapist was awesome- she taught me EFT, emotional freedom technique aka tapping therapy. Highly recommend, besides weed/CBD, it’s been THE most helpful for more acute anxiety, depression etc. Plenty of tutorials on YT pick a channel any channel 🤷♀️👍 ✌️💜 also, i really like Loop experience earplugs- they allow you to hear but filter out a lot of background noise & help with fatigue/overstimulation/sensory overload, good for car/road noise on drives too. 👍 i lost mine i tend to lose stuff sometimes but intend to repurchase bc they were so soothing. ✌️ stay strong fellow HSP’s !
I'm a HSP and Introvert. And get over whelmed easily. We HSP are Advocates for the Broken Hearted. We are different. I'm sure we are created by God this way for a purpose. We should strive to find our purpose in life.
My ex-pastor told me that he thought I have the spiritual gift of mercy. Because of abilities to help hurting people or even hurting animals especially dogs. As for people, those who suffer as shut-ins or from depression and isolation. I had never thought about that possibility but maybe he was right.
I can’t tell you how great full I am to have found this. Still wish I wasn’t a HSP. It’s a hard life. Extremely hard. I’ve never heard this being said ever before.
Finally, a name for the additional internal struggle an empathetic person is dealing with. This sensory issue recently went into continuous hyper drive for after suffering a stroke. I am spending a lot more time alone but I don't come off as anti social right now with all the pandemic rules we have been forced to live by.
Jesse Halter I'm in utter agony currently I've been driven into Fibromyalgia and CFS I feel totally overwhelmed it's just all a living nightmare matrix I cannot get out of
I’m a Hsp and have CPTSD have been kind of insane for almost forty years and TMS is stabilizing me after all of these torturous years of torment.I have Fibromyalgia too and used to be in bed like half the month with torture chamber like migraines.Emgality helped that.God is healing me.Tms really works .
I'm a (HSP) I'm always constantly aware of my surroundings also it makes see through people and know when people are faking plus picking up people's energy. its very hard for myself to go out in public or look at people in the face out of fear of picking up the bad energies and it is extremely hard for me to shut off at the end of the day too. i know that I'm not alone and would like to hear anyone else on this with the same thing, much love ❤
Hi yes I have always found it hard to switch off at the end of the day. Need a good chunk of time no talking no noise soak in the bath and I also take meds that help me sleep. I try to write reflection most days. Otherwise everything piles up and I end up with chronic stress. But now I have a good routine and a name for this. I'm also an extrovert so have learned to say no to seeking out stimuli. I take people in small doses and when the week is balanced I cope very well. We are all unique and thats something to celebrate! Always take enough time for yourself and the rest will sort itself out.
Hi. Ive just learned about this a few days ago, though for my whole life people have said I am too sensible. And I knew I was different and even though I tried to change certain traits I just couldnt. The one about the eyes is crazy, cause I hâd that one for most of my life. Its like we really try to hide ourselves and also avoiding to see the others true colours, though we might still pick up their intentions. Unfortunately for me, years of stress, abuse, depression, diseases have made me loose my mind a bit. If you can, find a calm place for yourself. Do breath work, try growing your own food. But do take care of your soul too. We have souls and we only have just a little time left to make sure we can keep them forever. The Bible is true and God loves us. Call Him now and ask Him to forgive you fir whatever you mightve done, help you understand Him and strenghten you. These upcoming years will be really hard and we really dont have that much time and you never know how much time each one has. I know from experience that He loves us. It came after much suffering and I ended up even blaspheming Him. I didnt really understand why He put us through this and thought He hâd some mean streak în Him. Its hard, so hard and its getting worse. But He wants us to change and come back to Him. The way is our Lord Jesus. Put your trust în Him and even în the worst moments, dont forget He loves us. If we love Him and our brothers we will obey Him. Keep trying and never lose faith în Him for He is as He says He is. Wishing you all the best.
Thank you very much for the very informational video and the explanation of how we are literally wired. My only complaint is that the vocal reading of it was very hard to Listen to . It was very monotone an artificial sounding. Would be wonderful to hear a calming actual voice
Kind of a relief discovering I’m HSP , abandoned as a baby, raised by a vulnerable narcissistic grandmother, after experiencing multiple foster carers, …. I’ve recently made the leap of going no contact from my super toxic family, since then they don’t bother me anymore, they don’t contact me in any way, , amazing how easy they do this , after all my suffering enduring their behaviour , l now know, crystal clear they don’t care & neverhave, they just made use of me, now my battle is protecting myself now, being still , calm & loving to myself is my daily mantra,

I feel electrical charges from the same area of my brain and moving down my spine. I have fibromyalgia, which I believe may be related to it as neurons are overactive and sending signals to the receptors that a person feels pain or itching.

I do enjoy it, I see the world as if I'd sit in a movie or my own imagination. when I see birds flying all I see is magic, when I feel the wind blowing, all I feel is the touch of the natures spirit, I love writing poems when I am travelling, I love imagining the world and the particular view from above the trees as if I was a bird. only disadvantage that the other people feels cold to me, I feel like I have way stronger relationship with animals, they come to me themselves.
I am jumpy, easily startled. And very sensitive to “unusual” sounds even if they are in a room FULL of other sounds I can pick out the weirdest little sounds. (Like a tv screen that is on)
Same here I'm nervous easily startled and jumping and I'm an addict struggling with my addiction right now and I can feel and hear the smallest things in a room full of regular sound but once you turn the TV off or turn the heater off and get super quiet and I hear and feel everything like even bugs.

As an HSP unfortunately I'm surrounded with toxic people,narcisists family too, who like to manipulate with my guilt and my empathy.I found the best way for me is to get rid of it is to go for a run around the block,there is no mind chatter then.You can also hit that boxing bag or improvise it.I found It works even after heavy family fights which otherwise negative emotions stays in my mind and eats me alive.

Talk about feeling like your crazy, because your emotional level is always on a high. U get enough people telling you, your too sensitive or your crazy, why can’t you just let it go. Even though I see these traits in me, my trauma makes me feel like I’m super awkward and just don’t fit in.
That bit about being driven more by internal, rather than external rewards, is something about me that I would never have linked to being an hsp. I have left people in shock with some of the things I've done just on principle.
Omg yes , when he said that something click in me, I don't really have alot of desires for external rewards either and never thought it was link to my hsp, well i dint even know I was hsp
This also resonated with me so much. I've always been told I'm not ambitious or competitive enough but maybe I am, just in a different way. Winning against other people doesn't make me happy but acomplishing a goal I set out for myself does
Im an HSP who’s in the beginning stages if harnessing this superpower. I have an ex NFL narc Dad, and l also in a 15 yr relationship with a narc. This information is literally changing my life.

Growing up a male HSP is beyond brutal. Lots of ppl hurting your feelings and bullying you, and most ALL women you have a romance with eventually always break up with you because they all say your to sensitive and hense not spousal material. 90% of all woman want a man they FEEL protected by and can then respect, most male HSPs will not give off those feelings to most women, so being a male HSP usually means having a very lonely life..
You might be enneagram type 2, and ESFJ in MBTI. Do look into MBTI and enneagram -- merely learning about personality typologies and cognitive function stacks might help you a lot. While I am not in favor of sensitive men brainwashing themselves into giving up their superpower/god-given talent for being sensitive, you might learn a few skills from Nice Guys Finish Last, without destroying the core of your identity in the process. I'm madly in love with a HSP man, and since I am HSP myself... please keep your fingers crossed :-) Wish you all the best.
Develop yourself as the strong, silent, aware type of HSP. They use their sensitivity to help others and keep 85% of their own pain to themselves. Not speak out your own pain will tend to decrease it over time. Focus your attention on God and on others and you will become a powerhouse with your gift of sensitivity and kindness.
I used to get anxiety so bad in middle school, it would distort my perception of time and make me feel like I was moving slowly and everything else around me would start to move faster....getting brighter and louder and louder..... I had to close my eyes and try to slow my breathing to get it to stop....
I had biofeedback done and my resonant frequency, i think it was or some activity measurement, was 50,000 and the normal levels were 3,000-7,000 10,000 being extremely high. The practitioner was dumbfounded and right away sent signals trying to lower that but my instincts said, no, it didnt feel like a bad thing to me instinctually, i know i am deeply connected to nature when i am feeling something intensely the nature around me responds like the fairytales. In fact its the only place i experience true peace, the most u disturbed by human natural environments. But i love humans. At 19 i remember pondering heading into the woods to live with nature but immediately had the awareness i would feel everything humans were going through anyway and i like humans i guess. But plants and animals i am certain i love.i love humans. Creation creativity. Remember its ALL Connected

I feel my serotonin levels and endorphins go completely haywire. Hungry but you can't eat. That's when I force myself to eat. At times I just don't eat. Then cortisol kicks in. Due to stress, it causes belly swelling. You lay in bed and feel your adrenaline flying . It's all spiritual to me.
Start running at least 1/4 mile a day and work your way up. I’m 50 and have been a long distance runner, have just now started sprinting, all the health benefits of running are a medical cure. It literally obliterate stress.

@@strawverymilktae1280 I know... I was badly boollied when little and still nowaday,s, sometimes people acts badly. Now I know we're on the right path. Our sensitivity is the best gift for next generations: Deep Heart and deep Thought together.
Hands up HSPs who unknowingly attracted a narcissist or an avoidant/emotionally unavailable person into their life due to their over extension of empathy?
The best part for me is being able to see right through fake and phony people. I don’t waste any of my precious time on people who are not good for me to be around.
I've not really heard it discussed that traumatized children could be more likely to develop highly sensitive abilities from being forced to feel their environment out, or have had close relationship with suffering. I'm not saying some aren't born this way, even in a good childhood, just saying I'm curious to know if traumatized children are more prone to develop this.
They get depressed easily. So its important for walks in a peaceful park. It's good for everyone's rejuvenation n mental health. If you like animals n live in an apartment. You can get your doctor to sign papers for an emotional support animal. Also strong family emotionally support can help you. Even your best friend can support you emotionally as well. I like going to the Zoo, parks, n eating outside weather permitting. Invite a family or friend over n cook bbq outside depending if your apartment management allows it or go to a park where they have grills. Go to the library or church. Or church with your preferred denomination. Churches always have food drives, serve/sell food n have activities. There are alot of free things or low cost things you can do. Such go fishing or lat out on the beach with a friend. The sun is free n so is the sun. Don't sit at home. Being Highly sensitive can be reinvigorating.

I was told my mother was traumatized and also had prolonged difficult labor. I believe it was all transferred to me at birth. I have always felt overwhelmed and overstimulated. The pain is deep at a cellular level. I'm now physically sick in my older age. I feel like giving up. It's too much.

Good content but hate the voice. Having testrs recently for something else the dr said when testing my reflexes I have higher than normal automatic reactions. Makes total sense along side my hsp and adhd, strong personality and also extrovert! Taken me a long time to figure all that out but I'm now so happy in my skin because I finally understand myself, well mostly!!
I am an HSP/EXTROVERT. SO I FULLY COMPREHEND EXACTLY WHAT IT IS AND DOES. THERE IS WONDERFUL AND TERRIBLE NEWS TO BE DISCOVERED BY ME. (I AM SO BRAVE AND SO SCARED)
I have lived with it for a long time and it can be disconcerting depending on the situation. Negative emotions and hate are worse ones ever. To sense that feeling when someone walks into the building where my office is is weird. It engulfs the entire building and everything feels uneasy. To pickup people’s emotions while weird it’s nice as well. I use to have a brother from another mother that would help me when I would get caught up in sadness because it pulls me down making me feel like I’m drowning. I am still working on learning how to deal and I’m only 40.
Good luck. It's more than hsp. Its called contagion empathy. You actually feel it with out wanting too. Most think they are like this but no. They see it and act empathic. But yeah, when you can feel the hate in a room from a person it's hard to get that hate out of yourself. That's how strong it is.

What is disappointing is at 49 years old I still struggle from the foundation my parents started building me on. By God’s grace he carried me through but to hear my parents say “Get over it, it’s the past, why do you live in the past, how many times do I need to say I’m sorry, we did the best we could”.

Same here. I was told you're too sensitive, you wont talk to her, that's not you, is she going to dump you, I dont want to hear it, and basically NEVER got advice geared toward ME, if I did, which was rare, it was about what THEY would do. Making it irrelevant. No advice or concern over who my friends were, what my real interests were, womens nature etc. etc. In fsct I always felt like my father was disgusted by me. Naturally I grew up with no boundaries and no confidence in my own direction. You never finish ironing it out
Do your healing privately, don't share your joy and growth with anyone who does not support respect accept and get you. Dont be needy. If you must, show agreeable neutral non emotional way, even act, but build a strong seperate sense of self outside of the pain circle

I work as a tradesman, work out , look after myself, but during a run of work, I start to struggle with the world. I make enough money,than I take myself away, retreat at home, my a fuss of my adorable cat. I read, play music, listen to music and eventually my mood comes back. I've been told that I think to much , too sensitive, this normally switches me off from those that say it. I do see things that others don't and have wonderd wether it would be better to be arrogant, loud, full of myself to really make it in this world.
Any of you super sensitive to sudden noises too? Especially that of the phone ringing which is the most annoying? Why does psychology have no term for this? And how do normal people filter out sudden noises and interruptions but I can't? Is there any medicine that can reduce our sensitivities?
i am glad I found this video, I wish I found it long ago. I knew i am different than others, and others are very different - more like robots. feels like others simply see 0 in something when I see 100, I know the reason now. thank you :)
Being an HSP is not always a superpower...You can sense your own emotions plus that of other people and animals too... That's feels overwhelming! The thing is you can't just shut down yourself from that..
If you suspect that you’re an HSP, see about getting pharmacological gene testing. Perhaps you won’t take any meds, but you might see the short and/or long alleles talked about in the vid. All my life I’ve been treated like there’s nothing wrong with me and I chose to be depressed. Turns out, I’ve had funky alleles in my brain all along as is shown in my test results. Take that, world!!! 😝
I gotta ask since I’m sure a lot of other HSP’s are watching this video. Do any of u other HSP’s find it difficult waking up in the morning? I have been the heaviest sleeper ever since childhood, constantly sleeping through alarms. It’s like my brain just totally shuts down or something when I sleep because it’s so beat from working at the rate of speed that it normally does every day.

Yes for sure. I've put lots of work into sleep habits and getting enough which is hard but necessary as I'm naturally a night owl which works against me. I also take lots of supplements as eating a healthy diet never feels enough.
I am an HSP. I may be an extreme version of being an HSP but I'd like to know if there are any type of studies or tests being conducted to be sure or find out? I cannot even begin to find the right words on how to describe how I feel seeing this being posted here. IF there is any type of testing available I'd be more than happy to volunteer. I'd even sell my right arm to be studied and or tested. HSP's need so much attention. I know there is much information on the internet, but the scientific studies are almost null or dismissed, so this is great to see. I am also a MCS (multiple chemical sensitive) person, which I am sure many are as well. But again, I feel I am an extreme case. Thank you so much for bring this to the forefront and to the public. Please keep me posted if any volunteers or studies are needed. I will do just about anything I can to help. ps...I am probably going to go cry now. (lol)
@@berdinedevisser8593 thank you so much, I already read that book about 8 years ago and had the pleasure of speaking w Elaine. She was very helpful and kind.
Breathe DEEP...Breathe SLOW (through the nose) This is where you find control of emotional intelligence and willpower etc. Make it the first thing you do before leaving bed and again when entering it...repeat throughout the day. This will change you...mind body and soul. This will begin reprogramming within your brain. Change the way you think...begin by changing the way you speak.

This is very interesting . I get predictive dreams and some have been connected to another’s pain ... later I get a call regarding there death or hospitalisation . Those people were not around me at the time. I feel others emotions etc . I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia recently, which doesn’t explain anything really . Other than it apparently makes a person pain filled and I’ve looked in to typology . I’m an INFJ-T I get fried by being around people. I’m now on SSR for serotonin. I’m on the right track I think . I was annoyed with Drs for giving me antidepressants because I’m not depressed lol
Same w/me....all my life I have had predictive dreams, connected to either someone I know (or don't know), can be in close location (or far away), & next day I read how that person died or got severely physically hurt.....how that may be related to HSP (or being an Empath), biologically, would be interesting to know.....
Wondering?!?! I’m extremely reactive to so many things--especially EMF dirty electricity which includes most electrical devices especially digital! For example reading this via my iPhone is driving me nuts! I love technology but I’m having to limit my exposure as it creates a multitude of negative reactions! I fear if something doesn’t chance WE THE HSP’s are headed towards extinction! Do any of you react similar to technology?

I don’t understand why people are hiding behind ‘sensitivity’ here, sensitivity is about tactile feelings, not subjective feelings based off of belief systems fractured by trauma…the 5 senses in HEIGHTENED states vs. overthinking things must be broken down more than a victimized standpoint, I’ve been through hell, but I’m not going to cry any more than that because I consciously choose NOT to ignore that I ignore.

For everyone who's as annoyed by the robot voice as I am:
3:01 *sensitivity in empathy:*
mirror neurons are much more active in HSPs -> stronger mirroring of other people's feelings (whether they're loved ones or strangers)
=> easily overwhelmed, e.g. when watching a horror movie
4:56 *sensitivity in awareness:*
more brain activity in the insula & cingulate area -> HSPs are more attuned to what's going on internally & externally
6:04 *sensitivity in emotional vividness:*
HSPs have a gene variant that leads to more blood flow in the pre-frontal cortex -> amplifies deep processing of large sensory data (contemplating/planning/expressing personality etc.)
=> HSPs see the world differently & with more emotional vividness
7:17 *sensitivity in subtlety/genuineness:*
different system of "reward hormone" dopamine
-> HSPs are less driven by external rewards (bigger pay/social circle/competition) that trigger dopamine release in non-HSPs
=> instead, meaningful and genuine moments are much more pleasurable and less overwhelming for HSPs
8:28 *sensitivity in neural processing:*
carrying short-short variation of the serotonin transporter (="feel good hormone" transporter) -> this variation is associated with depression & other emotional issues -> doesn't necessarily lead to depression. Instead, HSPs are more sensitive to both positive and negative triggers
=> more overwhelmed due to enhanced neural processing of environment
Thank you so much ..... The content looked useful, but I too hate the robot voices
Sort of ironic considering the topic to have a voice that so uncanny valley xD
Had a company have a robot/AI voice call me for doing a take-home version of a medical test. Its imitation female voice had a nearly nails on the chalkboard tone to it. Strike one. It moved through things too quickly for me to keep up with. Strike two. And since it was a robot/AI there was no human to which to say, "hey, wait a minute, slow down, and what was that again?" Strike three. I had to hang up on it, the thing was too stressful. And they did it again a couple days later. Strike four. And once more a couple days after that. Strike five.
THANK YOU so much. I am beyond grateful for this research ❤
In addition, the poor grammar is so annoying. Fingernails - blackboard.
If you are a true HSP, you will find the robot voice disturbing.
😂yes!
I was going to to with “annoying”, but “disturbing” works too.
And if it was a human mispronouncing words with a bad accent you'd still complain.
Extremely. Had to close my eyes just to listen to the end
Made it to about 1 minute in and had to stop, yeah
Imagine being Born A Sensitive and having An Abusive Dad! It's A Miracle lm Alive! 😇
Yes, I hear you. Both of my parents were abusive. I prob felt it more because of my sensitivity as well.
The thing is that all the abuse resurfaces when we are adults. Till our childhood we are mostly surviving. Maybe a biological safeguard.

Cut off/get away from toxic/harmful people if you are able to. You have God-given authority to protect your nervous system, emotional well being and peace.
Thank you i needed to hear that. Youve made my day
Well said, but running away from toxic ppl is only half of the solution...A human being is not made for living alone and in most cases as a survivor of a contact to a toxic person there are no friends left...So how to deal with that point ?
@Terri Larsen It takes sensitive ppl around you, who are willed to protect you from the flying monkeys, stalking and who care for your feelings and an environment, who takes the responsibility for failing to protect you !
Sometimes we are not always aware that the people around us are secretly sabotaging our: relationships, friendships, dreams, hopes and happiness. Toxic people often act out their true intentions covertly. Make sure the people in the boat with you, are not drilling holes in it when you are not looking. Covert enemies whether: Family, friends, community or relationships must be weeded out and removed or we remove ourselves. Life is too short to be spent unhappy. If you can handle the truth and 'tough' love, check out 'Tyler JTI' on RUclips. He will tell you straight what's really going on and how to handle it. It won't be easy. It might get lonely. But eventually you realise that God and yourself is enough. Anything else is a bonus if/when it comes.
Well I'm too broke to move out of my parents house so...
I was always criticized as being too sensitive and overthinking things. I was raised in a sea of assholes who didn't get me at all and it caused major damage.
💯👍🏽 I completely understand!
Calling someone too sensitive is like flying a banner that says “I’m abusive and will call you too sensitive when you protest my bad treatment”.
Sea of assholes 😂 nice expressive poetic language

Can you give some relationships advice. Since being HSP doesn't seem to help maybe I have the wrong mindset.
@@Allen204
You need to understand yourself.
The triggers, and your reactions.
This gives you the ability to understand others triggers and reactions.
This should help you in building relationships, but it isn't easy, because most people are selfish and not good friends or partners.
And you can't find happiness with those energies.
@@Galemor1 what i want to know is how to go into a relationship and not get too attracted early on.
May every HSPs meet other HSPs. Honestly when you feel something deeply you are easily hurt by people's words even though they have no intention of actually hurting you. Only an HSP can understand another HSP. We are the ones who'll think twice before saying something as we don't want to hurt other peoples feelings as we know what it feels like.
Agreed
It happen to me every day. I know possible they dont do express, but It feels as i dont have skin and all go deeply inside my soul...
Its a shame , but i have to protext for this persons....otherwise i am in danger...
Does anyone know if there is a website for HSPs to meet each other?
Absolutely!
awwww, I cannot agree more!!!
HSP’s are true WARRIORS… we are more advanced than most.. we are absolutely extraordinary 💕💕💕💕💕
This is definitely me. I cannot stand any harm coming to humans, animals, earth and environment. I wish I did not feel so deeply about situations.I cannot bear tv adverts where animals or humans are distressed.
Me too!

Thank you for sharing this. It's nice to finally know, on a physiological level, why I'm this way. I sometimes wish I had less empathy. It's hard to have a good, happy day, when you're constantly feeling the stress, sadness, etc, of other people. It's not a bad thing, but it is overwhelming at times. Big hugs to all other HSP's!
I’m so glad this video exists. I always feel so lonely and out of place in many high energy/high stimulus environments and want it to end. But then I feel like a jerk for leaving a situation where everyone else is “having fun.” And everyone just thinks I’m too sensitive or too emotional like having feelings is not normal.

HSP can be mistaken for something else. I thought I was an undiagnosed adult autistic in the beginning.
If you susoect you have the trait talk to your doctor. I did and it helped figure out a lot about my illnesses, pain, and my depression. Stress will make us physically sick . Years of it was literally killing me. The short of it is that this DNA trait makes us sensitive to everything but when you know and learn about yourself you'll see it as a super power. A hard learned one.
How did you learn 😭
@@nicoleclavel5836I got caught in that dark place where emotional, physical and mental pains, with a dash of financial, take you. The only way to get out is to let the darkness finish consuming you entirely.... Or a power within you forces you to awaken and you begin to become what you are. Pain is our best teacher, and if you are blessed to learn the lessons from it, you will evolve.
Yes, I'm 75 and just recently am learning about this in the last year. I started out thinking I had Aspergers, then realized that wasn't quite it. Started looking into the HSP and that nailed it for me. What a relief and am now learning to enjoy it, live with it, and know what to avoid. It's wonderful to finally know why I'm a little different.

Sometimes my empathy ability makes it hard for me to function. A lot of time I can't separate how I am feeling, versus the feelings and energy of others I am picking up on. I usually sit down with pen and paper to work it out and disentangle it. But I can't do this everyday, there's no time, so it often builds and builds. Sigh.
I can feel you! It’s me too I have been writing for years but I stopped now and the only way I have found out so far is staying more contained in my own self bcz I feel like surroundings are mostly negative and toxic and I can be driven by it and get deeply saddened or I loose my track.. I spend time meditating or learning music.. learning about spiritual life, am on my journey to explore myself! It’s peaceful and very rewarding!!!
I so know how you feel. For me yoga helped me to truly feel my own body and my own energies and learn where my energies ends and others begin. Before that I always felt like I was so fluid and floating and I could not keep off other peoples energies, emotions or pain. Only when I learned to feel and set my own boundaries I could start to hold space for others without “soaking up” their pain.
Same, stay strong!
I recommend that you do write the story; then apply spiritual principles I have been doing this 20 years, have over 50 stories. There is a common thread through the stories, your empath abilities.
Once I discovered I was an HSP, so many "detriments" became gifts and I've been able to channel it positively. But being highly empathic, it can be a struggle. Having a biological reason helps satisfy the logical, dominate part of my brain 🙄
It also helps satisfy the department of my trauma that it's not my fault, it's not bad, it's a gift, and it's the insensitive people who are the problem ....who I constantly attract.
I think I fall into this category as I hate being in crowds or where there’s too much noise. I have to be in a peaceful beautiful environment for my own well being which is why I love nature. I also can’t watch violence or bad treatment to animals or humans as I feel emotions quite strongly so it’s good to feel it’s an asset rather than a negative.
The most I can tolerate in a crowd or group of people is about 4hrs then I need a break, I go away for about an hr outside then return
Thank You for sharing. It does sound like you are a HSP. If you would like further clarity please also check out this video ruclips.net/video/Xz6Ar_LD2qM/видео.html According to Dr. Aron all HSPs have these 4 traits regardless of their background, gender, life experiences. : )

I've started reversing this with a friend who says I am too sensitive. She can't detect anything, senses nothing, has no early warning system and complains as a result that she can't pick up atmospheres or sense soul energy, that she hasn't felt her deceased husband around her and I tell her, it's because you aren't sensitive enough.
Very well said.❣️ Having many difficult days…I get to the point of repeating over & over, don’t think…don’t feel” which of course isn’t possible. No one I know understands.
This is spot on and really good! But being I’m a HSP by about 2:30, the monotone of the video was agitating me so badly. But aside from that, this is really an awesome, concise explanation. Thank you!
When I was pregnant with my daughter I could literally feel her growing/ vibrating in me especially around 8 weeks 🙃 ❤ I'm very in tune with my body for sure.
Thank God you didn't have background music 😝 thank you!

Good information. I wish you could've utilized a human narrator.
I was thinking the exact same thing because the computer-generated voice was getting on my nerves LOL
I wanted to listen to the content but could not listen to that robot voice. Too bad!
All this!
What!!! Someone creating good content for HSPs and then using the worst robot voice they could find. Irony, INsensitivity or Stupidity??
Thank you for the soothing voice ❤. Being an HSP is like living in high definition 24/7
Thank you, you are very welcome : ) so true!
Omg, PERFECT way to describe it
That’s putting it lightly on my high anxiety days 🤪

Nice. For me more 4k thx dts 12.1 sounds
This is so very true, everything. I can feel a mood at 20'.
I can’t believe he didn’t mention susceptibility to impulsivity and addictions when discussing our dopamine regulation.
pls elaborate on this pls
Yes becsuse off adiction off dopamin that intuiton and hsp with super emphat is just be higher
As a highly sensitive person, I suffer the most from manipulative people.
Also here main things an HSP live with through their life:
1- Obsessions
2- Phobias
3- Anxiety all the time
4- Weak personality
5- Overthinking
6- Approval addiction
Also it can develop toxic attachment to other people.
What you have to do is to care less about other people.
Have a good love for yourself more than other people.
Help people genuinely without seeking acceptance.
Say no when it is necessary.
Avoid toxic people and narcissists manipulative people.
Have more than 3 friends.
Avoid hanging out too much with one person.
Avoid hanging out with abusive person and don't be shy to say stop.
You need a lot of patience to go through and probably you will never go through because it is a nightmare.

It's easy to do most of the suggestions you listed, but how is an HSP to find more than 3 friends?! LOL. It's difficult enough to find one. If you have any tips to find friends as an HSP I would honestly appreciate it. Most people I meet, that I think I'll get along with, actually end up being "incompatible" for a lot of reasons, mostly due to vastly different interests and the fact that they don't have sensory processing sensitivity, which means they might want to invite me to a party, loud event etc. and I won't be glad to come.
I thought there was something wrong with me, but deep down there's a "voice" that tells me to stop forcing myself to hang out with people I know I am incompatible with.
It is…in fact, a nightmare.
that list of 1-6 surprised me because that is soooo true, the phobia, the fixations, all of it
Cries at the news cries at the animal cruelty adverts cries at hearing about pretty much everything
I always knew I was extremely sensitive and, in my early 20s, was prescribed antidepressants and Xanax. My doctor never asked me about my lifestyle or anything-very quick to prescribe. I was not eating healthy really at all, drank alcohol, and was fairly active, but not taking great care of myself while in college. I went on to take antidepressants for 10 years and was basically numb throughout my 20s and still had many periods of depression and days that I could barely make it to work. When I turned 30, I decided I didn't want to take any medication and began my journey of healing and self-acceptance. I'm almost 36 now and getting off of these numbing drugs was the best decision I ever made. I focused on exercise (walking, yoga, weight lifting, biking, dance), eating healthier (more whole foods, less processed), limiting alcohol, not surrounding myself with assholes, having boundaries, and read so many books to help me through my holistic healing journey. Since getting off antidepressants and birth control, I've also lost 35 pounds and am able to actually FEEL again. It is a struggle to be an HSP, but we have many superpowers as well. When you stop numbing yourself with drugs, food, alcohol, shopping, etc., you will really start to get to know yourself and many people around you will not understand why you "changed". Choose yourself. It's worth it. (*also, I know getting off medication is not for everyone and some people truly need it to function; this was the best decision for me personally) ❤
Whoa!! You saying, "when you choose to stop numbing yourself via food, shopping etc" it really opened my eyes. I have struggled with those two things for years. I never really looked at it as "numbing my HSP" but as a distraction or addictive like behavior instead bc i was lonely or depressed etc. But numbing the pain makes so much sense!!
I feel like its provided a new way to tackle the root cause and not just the symptoms/problems which I've tried several times and failed.
Thank you my fellow HSP!
@cds8249 you're so welcome! Happy to help 🩷 wishing you the best on your journey 🩷
When I was on my 20s I self diagnosed myself with noise anxiety. I told my children becus I had noise anxiety we could only do one thing at a time listen to the radio or talk we can't do both.
I always told my children "Mama's ears are tired and need a nap" when I was on sensory overload. They came to understand that quiet time was needed for a little while.
Bless your heart for this beautifully written way to describe the exact thing I personally go through. If you don’t mind.....I’m now using this same way to explain bc the way I keep stating about noise and all the OTHER sounds I’m sensing /processing makes me deficient in hearing speech being spoke thru all of that 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️😳😳😳😱😱😱
I came here after an afternoon in the company of a group of people all talking in an echoey room and with a lady near me who was very loud and spoke a lot. I was becoming increasingly desperate to get away. It has taken me hours and hours and it is only this channel which has restored some of my equilibrium.
I had a mother who abandoned me at a young age and a narcissistic father who gave me everything I ever wanted but he lacked the tenderness and warmth that a highly sensitive child needed. Thank god for my grandma who had a big role in my life and gave me the nurturing side I needed. I sometimes think without her I could have possibly turned into a very dark person as actually is very much the case for motherless children. My grandma honed in on my high sensitivity and encouraged it, where to my father I was always told to “stop being so sensitive”.

You’re beautiful and loved! ❤
I grew up as an HSP boy and received zero nurturing. Two of my grandparents were deceased, and two lived thousands of miles away. As I came of age, all attempts to find a girl or a woman to develop a lasting relationship failed. Hence no nurturing basically my entire life. Now I am 66 years old. Women pretty much all of them, at least the ones I desired, saw my sensitivity as weakness and lacking in masculinity. Some even came out and told me I was too sensitive. Sharing my feelings with them sent them all running. I am now retired and spend almost all of my time alone, as far as humans go. I do have certain interactions, mostly involving music or dogs. A couple of hours a week at church. I can use sensitivity to sing and play guitar and provide music with deep feeling and emotion. I can also get along with dogs and somehow communicate with them in ways that no one else can really understand. So I use this to help out adopting out rescued dogs. I just have one dog which is mellow almost all of the time. An active yippy dog or multiple dogs would drive me nuts. Only in recent years have I come to understand various aspects of being an HSP. This video was very helpful in furthering my understanding.
I was told was too sensitive-struggled for decades not knowing what was the issue? Why am I this way? Glad to know there is an explanation.
I identify as HSP & empath… ive seen a handful of therapist over the years… all but one were useless but that one best therapist was awesome- she taught me EFT, emotional freedom technique aka tapping therapy. Highly recommend, besides weed/CBD, it’s been THE most helpful for more acute anxiety, depression etc. Plenty of tutorials on YT pick a channel any channel 🤷♀️👍 ✌️💜 also, i really like Loop experience earplugs- they allow you to hear but filter out a lot of background noise & help with fatigue/overstimulation/sensory overload, good for car/road noise on drives too. 👍 i lost mine i tend to lose stuff sometimes but intend to repurchase bc they were so soothing. ✌️ stay strong fellow HSP’s !
I'm a HSP and Introvert. And get over whelmed easily. We HSP are Advocates for the Broken Hearted. We are different. I'm sure we are created by God this way for a purpose. We should strive to find our purpose in life.
Are HSP's clingy and too affectionate in relationships?
My ex-pastor told me that he thought I have the spiritual gift of mercy. Because of abilities to help hurting people or even hurting animals especially dogs. As for people, those who suffer as shut-ins or from depression and isolation. I had never thought about that possibility but maybe he was right.
Interesting, but let me say : as a HSP, I find this robotic artificial voice, annoyingly boring. It show too much that it is not human.
I was often told I came from another
planet!! Probably true!!
I can’t tell you how great full I am to have found this. Still wish I wasn’t a HSP. It’s a hard life. Extremely hard. I’ve never heard this being said ever before.
Finally, a name for the additional internal struggle an empathetic person is dealing with. This sensory issue recently went into continuous hyper drive for after suffering a stroke. I am spending a lot more time alone but I don't come off as anti social right now with all the pandemic rules we have been forced to live by.
All I know is that HSP coupled with CPTSD is a living hell.
Sadly Jesse so true
Jesse Halter
I'm in utter agony currently I've been driven into Fibromyalgia and CFS I feel totally overwhelmed it's just all a living nightmare matrix I cannot get out of
Don’t I know!
I’m a Hsp and have CPTSD have been kind of insane for almost forty years and TMS is stabilizing me after all of these torturous years of torment.I have Fibromyalgia too and used to be in bed like half the month with torture chamber like migraines.Emgality helped that.God is healing me.Tms really works .
I wish there was a place we could connect to share understanding and empathy with people like us. Any one know of one?
I'm a (HSP) I'm always constantly aware of my surroundings also it makes see through people and know when people are faking plus picking up people's energy. its very hard for myself to go out in public or look at people in the face out of fear of picking up the bad energies and it is extremely hard for me to shut off at the end of the day too.
i know that I'm not alone and would like to hear anyone else on this with the same thing, much love ❤
Hi yes I have always found it hard to switch off at the end of the day. Need a good chunk of time no talking no noise soak in the bath and I also take meds that help me sleep. I try to write reflection most days. Otherwise everything piles up and I end up with chronic stress. But now I have a good routine and a name for this. I'm also an extrovert so have learned to say no to seeking out stimuli. I take people in small doses and when the week is balanced I cope very well. We are all unique and thats something to celebrate! Always take enough time for yourself and the rest will sort itself out.

@ramzar7615 - some maybe, but not all!
Hi. Ive just learned about this a few days ago, though for my whole life people have said I am too sensible. And I knew I was different and even though I tried to change certain traits I just couldnt. The one about the eyes is crazy, cause I hâd that one for most of my life. Its like we really try to hide ourselves and also avoiding to see the others true colours, though we might still pick up their intentions. Unfortunately for me, years of stress, abuse, depression, diseases have made me loose my mind a bit. If you can, find a calm place for yourself. Do breath work, try growing your own food. But do take care of your soul too. We have souls and we only have just a little time left to make sure we can keep them forever. The Bible is true and God loves us. Call Him now and ask Him to forgive you fir whatever you mightve done, help you understand Him and strenghten you. These upcoming years will be really hard and we really dont have that much time and you never know how much time each one has. I know from experience that He loves us. It came after much suffering and I ended up even blaspheming Him. I didnt really understand why He put us through this and thought He hâd some mean streak în Him. Its hard, so hard and its getting worse. But He wants us to change and come back to Him. The way is our Lord Jesus. Put your trust în Him and even în the worst moments, dont forget He loves us. If we love Him and our brothers we will obey Him. Keep trying and never lose faith în Him for He is as He says He is. Wishing you all the best.
Thank you very much for the very informational video and the explanation of how we are literally wired. My only complaint is that the vocal reading of it was very hard to Listen to . It was very monotone an artificial sounding. Would be wonderful to hear a calming actual voice
Kind of a relief discovering I’m HSP , abandoned as a baby, raised by a vulnerable narcissistic grandmother, after experiencing multiple foster carers, …. I’ve recently made the leap of going no contact from my super toxic family, since then they don’t bother me anymore, they don’t contact me in any way, , amazing how
easy they do this , after all my suffering enduring their behaviour , l now know, crystal clear they don’t care & neverhave, they just made use of me, now my battle is protecting myself now, being still , calm & loving to myself is my daily mantra,
Wow. This is me. Explains a lot. No wonder I stay single. I have to find someone closer to this character

A few years ago I needed a CT scan for a different issue, and one of the notes in the report was “extreme brain activity “
I feel electrical charges from the same area of my brain and moving down my spine. I have fibromyalgia, which I believe may be related to it as neurons are overactive and sending signals to the receptors that a person feels pain or itching.

I do enjoy it, I see the world as if I'd sit in a movie or my own imagination. when I see birds flying all I see is magic, when I feel the wind blowing, all I feel is the touch of the natures spirit, I love writing poems when I am travelling, I love imagining the world and the particular view from above the trees as if I was a bird. only disadvantage that the other people feels cold to me, I feel like I have way stronger relationship with animals, they come to me themselves.

I am jumpy, easily startled. And very sensitive to “unusual” sounds even if they are in a room FULL of other sounds I can pick out the weirdest little sounds. (Like a tv screen that is on)

As an HSP unfortunately I'm surrounded with toxic people,narcisists family too, who like to manipulate with my guilt and my empathy.I found the best way for me is to get rid of it is to go for a run around the block,there is no mind chatter then.You can also hit that boxing bag or improvise it.I found It works even after heavy family fights which otherwise negative emotions stays in my mind and eats me alive.

Talk about feeling like your crazy, because your emotional level is always on a high. U get enough people telling you, your too sensitive or your crazy, why can’t you just let it go. Even though I see these traits in me, my trauma makes me feel like I’m super awkward and just don’t fit in.

Do you find difficulties in navigating through the daily hustle of life ?How do you deal amidst triggers especially when you know you have no one in the world?
How do you know treywhite9611 doesn't have 'no one in the world'? Might want to reconsider how you phrase things, that could come across very hurtful... or did you mean for it to be hurtful? @@poojachanana2889 Little *insensitive* there.
Growing up a male HSP is beyond brutal. Lots of ppl hurting your feelings and bullying you, and most ALL women you have a romance with eventually always break up with you because they all say your to sensitive and hense not spousal material. 90% of all woman want a man they FEEL protected by and can then respect, most male HSPs will not give off those feelings to most women, so being a male HSP usually means having a very lonely life..
Exactly. Finding the right person or people? Hope you have better luck than I have had.
You might be enneagram type 2, and ESFJ in MBTI. Do look into MBTI and enneagram -- merely learning about personality typologies and cognitive function stacks might help you a lot.
While I am not in favor of sensitive men brainwashing themselves into giving up their superpower/god-given talent for being sensitive, you might learn a few skills from Nice Guys Finish Last, without destroying the core of your identity in the process.
I'm madly in love with a HSP man, and since I am HSP myself... please keep your fingers crossed :-) Wish you all the best.
Develop yourself as the strong, silent, aware type of HSP. They use their sensitivity to help others and keep 85% of their own pain to themselves. Not speak out your own pain will tend to decrease it over time. Focus your attention on God and on others and you will become a powerhouse with your gift of sensitivity and kindness.
I used to get anxiety so bad in middle school, it would distort my perception of time and make me feel like I was moving slowly and everything else around me would start to move faster....getting brighter and louder and louder.....
I had to close my eyes and try to slow my breathing to get it to stop....
I had biofeedback done and my resonant frequency, i think it was or some activity measurement, was 50,000 and the normal levels were 3,000-7,000 10,000 being extremely high. The practitioner was dumbfounded and right away sent signals trying to lower that but my instincts said, no, it didnt feel like a bad thing to me instinctually, i know i am deeply connected to nature when i am feeling something intensely the nature around me responds like the fairytales. In fact its the only place i experience true peace, the most u disturbed by human natural environments. But i love humans. At 19 i remember pondering heading into the woods to live with nature but immediately had the awareness i would feel everything humans were going through anyway and i like humans i guess. But plants and animals i am certain i love.i love humans. Creation creativity. Remember its ALL Connected

Wow! I feel like I could have written this... That's crazy.
It only takes me 2 hours being around people to feel exhausted.
Is there a place (on internet or in real life) where highly sensitive people can come together and discuss ideas and eventually make some new friends?
I feel my serotonin levels and endorphins go completely haywire. Hungry but you can't eat. That's when I force myself to eat. At times I just don't eat. Then cortisol kicks in. Due to stress, it causes belly swelling. You lay in bed and feel your adrenaline flying . It's all spiritual to me.
Get a good vegatable juicer.
Start running at least 1/4 mile a day and work your way up. I’m 50 and have been a long distance runner, have just now started sprinting, all the health benefits of running are a medical cure. It literally obliterate stress.

I've not really heard it discussed that traumatized children could be more likely to develop highly sensitive abilities from being forced to feel their environment out, or have had close relationship with suffering. I'm not saying some aren't born this way, even in a good childhood, just saying I'm curious to know if traumatized children are more prone to develop this.
Could it be vice Versa . Easier to experience trauma as a kid because of the sensitivity
Both, in my experience.

They get depressed easily. So its important for walks in a peaceful park. It's good for everyone's rejuvenation n mental health. If you like animals n live in an apartment. You can get your doctor to sign papers for an emotional support animal. Also strong family emotionally support can help you. Even your best friend can support you emotionally as well.
I like going to the Zoo, parks, n eating outside weather permitting. Invite a family or friend over n cook bbq outside depending if your apartment management allows it or go to a park where they have grills. Go to the library or church. Or church with your preferred denomination. Churches always have food drives, serve/sell food n have activities. There are alot of free things or low cost things you can do. Such go fishing or lat out on the beach with a friend. The sun is free n so is the sun. Don't sit at home. Being Highly sensitive can be reinvigorating.

Having testrs recently for something else the dr said when testing my reflexes I have higher than normal automatic reactions. Makes total sense along side my hsp and adhd, strong personality and also extrovert! Taken me a long time to figure all that out but I'm now so happy in my skin because I finally understand myself, well mostly!!
I am an HSP/EXTROVERT. SO I FULLY COMPREHEND EXACTLY WHAT IT IS AND DOES.
THERE IS WONDERFUL AND TERRIBLE NEWS TO BE DISCOVERED BY ME. (I AM SO BRAVE
AND SO SCARED)
I'm astounded the percentaged of hsp's is so high!
Didn't know there was a term for this.
I have lived with it for a long time and it can be disconcerting depending on the situation. Negative emotions and hate are worse ones ever. To sense that feeling when someone walks into the building where my office is is weird. It engulfs the entire building and everything feels uneasy.
To pickup people’s emotions while weird it’s nice as well. I use to have a brother from another mother that would help me when I would get caught up in sadness because it pulls me down making me feel like I’m drowning. I am still working on learning how to deal and I’m only 40.
Good luck. It's more than hsp. Its called contagion empathy. You actually feel it with out wanting too. Most think they are like this but no. They see it and act empathic. But yeah, when you can feel the hate in a room from a person it's hard to get that hate out of yourself. That's how strong it is.

By God’s grace he carried me through but to hear my parents say “Get over it, it’s the past, why do you live in the past, how many times do I need to say I’m sorry, we did the best we could”.

Same here. I was told you're too sensitive, you wont talk to her, that's not you, is she going to dump you, I dont want to hear it, and basically NEVER got advice geared toward ME, if I did, which was rare, it was about what THEY would do. Making it irrelevant. No advice or concern over who my friends were, what my real interests were, womens nature etc. etc. In fsct I always felt like my father was disgusted by me. Naturally I grew up with no boundaries and no confidence in my own direction. You never finish ironing it out
Do your healing privately, don't share your joy and growth with anyone who does not support respect accept and get you. Dont be needy. If you must, show agreeable neutral non emotional way, even act, but build a strong seperate sense of self outside of the pain circle
Privately write how you feel, daily if possible. That's how you put hurts behind you.

I work as a tradesman, work out , look after myself, but during a run of work, I start to struggle with the world.
I make enough money,than I take myself away, retreat at home, my a fuss of my adorable cat.
I read, play music, listen to music and eventually my mood comes back.
I've been told that I think to much , too sensitive, this normally switches me off from those that say it.
I do see things that others don't and have wonderd wether it would be better to be arrogant, loud, full of myself to really make it in this world.
@doombardevon6099 I think they term they use now is highly sensitive person.
Any of you super sensitive to sudden noises too? Especially that of the phone ringing which is the most annoying? Why does psychology have no term for this? And how do normal people filter out sudden noises and interruptions but I can't? Is there any medicine that can reduce our sensitivities?
i am glad I found this video, I wish I found it long ago. I knew i am different than others, and others are very different - more like robots. feels like others simply see 0 in something when I see 100, I know the reason now. thank you :)
Being an HSP is not always a superpower...You can sense your own emotions plus that of other people and animals too... That's feels overwhelming! The thing is you can't just shut down yourself from that..
In this world be HSP this is hell .thanks so much for informations about this trait very clearly speech !!!!!!!
If you suspect that you’re an HSP, see about getting pharmacological gene testing. Perhaps you won’t take any meds, but you might see the short and/or long alleles talked about in the vid. All my life I’ve been treated like there’s nothing wrong with me and I chose to be depressed. Turns out, I’ve had funky alleles in my brain all along as is shown in my test results. Take that, world!!! 😝
This is very interesting. It’s funny how i knew these things but didn’t know in terms of scientific research. The curse turns into a blessing…
I gotta ask since I’m sure a lot of other HSP’s are watching this video. Do any of u other HSP’s find it difficult waking up in the morning? I have been the heaviest sleeper ever since childhood, constantly sleeping through alarms. It’s like my brain just totally shuts down or something when I sleep because it’s so beat from working at the rate of speed that it normally does every day.
YES!!!!!!!!! For sure.
Yes, and it's also common in people who endured trauma

Yes!!!! I have to peel myself out of the bed every morning no matter what is going on that day!
Yes for sure. I've put lots of work into sleep habits and getting enough which is hard but necessary as I'm naturally a night owl which works against me. I also take lots of supplements as eating a healthy diet never feels enough.
This is the most comprehensive and scientifically supported video I have ever heard and seen about HSPs. Iam going to save this.❤
I am an HSP.
I may be an extreme version of being an HSP but I'd like to know if there are any type of studies or tests being conducted to be sure or find out?
I cannot even begin to find the right words on how to describe how I feel seeing this being posted here.
IF there is any type of testing available I'd be more than happy to volunteer. I'd even sell my right arm to be studied and or tested.
HSP's need so much attention. I know there is much information on the internet, but the scientific studies are almost null or dismissed, so this is great to see.
I am also a MCS (multiple chemical sensitive) person, which I am sure many are as well. But again, I feel I am an extreme case.
Thank you so much for bring this to the forefront and to the public. Please keep me posted if any volunteers or studies are needed. I will do just about anything I can to help.
ps...I am probably going to go cry now. (lol)
Read the book by Elaine Arons: Highly Sensitive Persons. It helped me a lot.
@@berdinedevisser8593 thank you so much, I already read that book about 8 years ago and had the pleasure of speaking w Elaine. She was very helpful and kind.
You could be hypersensitive.
I am ultra sensitive to caffeine.
Breathe DEEP...Breathe SLOW (through the nose)
This is where you find control of emotional intelligence and willpower etc.
Make it the first thing you do before leaving bed and again when entering it...repeat throughout the day.
This will change you...mind body and soul.
This will begin reprogramming within your brain.
Change the way you think...begin by changing the way you speak.

This is very interesting . I get predictive dreams and some have been connected to another’s pain ... later I get a call regarding there death or hospitalisation . Those people were not around me at the time. I feel others emotions etc . I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia recently, which doesn’t explain anything really . Other than it apparently makes a person pain filled and I’ve looked in to typology . I’m an INFJ-T I get fried by being around people. I’m now on SSR for serotonin. I’m on the right track I think . I was annoyed with Drs for giving me antidepressants because I’m not depressed lol
How does the SSR help?
I'm HSP and INFJ-T with fibromyalgia too.. emotions are so damn hard to deal with..
Same w/me....all my life I have had predictive dreams, connected to either someone I know (or don't know), can be in close location (or far away), & next day I read how that person died or got severely physically hurt.....how that may be related to HSP (or being an Empath), biologically, would be interesting to know.....
Wondering?!?! I’m extremely reactive to so many things--especially EMF dirty electricity which includes most electrical devices especially digital! For example reading this via my iPhone is driving me nuts! I love technology but I’m having to limit my exposure as it creates a multitude of negative reactions! I fear if something doesn’t chance WE THE HSP’s are headed towards extinction!
Do any of you react similar to technology?
I am hsp person I can pick up when someone walking past me is suicidal. It’s terrible because you can’t do anything too help.
Sometimes just a smile can help them...😊
@@thedude7099 yes true, but sometimes when they are in that mode, they have already decided. And will not see it sadly. 🙏

I don’t understand why people are hiding behind ‘sensitivity’ here, sensitivity is about tactile feelings, not subjective feelings based off of belief systems fractured by trauma…the 5 senses in HEIGHTENED states vs. overthinking things must be broken down more than a victimized standpoint, I’ve been through hell, but I’m not going to cry any more than that because I consciously choose NOT to ignore that I ignore.
