I just discovered that I'm an empath. It is eye-opening, and gives me a great deal of insight into my strengths and glaring weaknesses....why I struggle to fit in and be normal, am shy though I don't want to be, and spend so much time separated from people, even though I love people and long to help the world.
I have a question for empaths:
How have you advanced your gift (sensitivity to other people) from a liability to an asset?
for non-empaths - what has been your impression of empaths? are we overly-sensitive assholes or confused soytards...? or gifted counselors?
