The Hidden Danger of Feeling Too Much: When Empathy Turns Against You
I’ve been there.
It’s tough when you feel the world in high-definition, while others seem content with standard definition. But remember, your ability to feel deeply is not a weakness; it’s a strength. It’s your superpower.
However, if this intense empathy is leaving you feeling isolated or misunderstood because others can’t relate to the depth of your feelings, it might be a sign that your empathy levels are running high.
It’s important to surround yourself with people who understand and appreciate your empathy, rather than making you feel like an outsider.
