    You’ve so clearly articulated the artists never ending struggle. If we weren’t sensitive we wouldn’t be able to interpret the world and people in a special way that others admire.

    My first grade teacher wrote on my report card “she is an excellent student, but so sensitive!” Some of those qualities don’t change much with years and experience.

      And you’ve never forgotten that! I wonder if the teacher had said “& so wonderfully sensitive,” or even used the word AND instead of BUT, what you’d have taken away?

    creatives are not sensitive due to creativity. Sensetive people are more likely to be creative.

    All my life, 63 now, I was told that I was too sensitive and I knew I certainly was different a bit odd, however a couple of years ago I came across a web site called Highly sensitive refuge and all of a sudden it was like I belonged, other people were like me. Ever since I have embraced my sensitivity. My art has come on in leaps and bounds and actually now feel confident enough to call myself an artist although I have soooo much to learn. Thank you Danny look forward to your essays and vlogs.

    I come from a long time depression and I found out a couple of months ago that I struggle from depression and I started to train my creativity.
    you described me really on point.
    I started drawing a couple days ago and it feels so relieving to finally have something to express my feelings.
    you showed me that iam on the right track to become who I really am.
    you videos are so full of wholesomeness and they really touch me.
    thank you

    I spent a lot of years shielding myself from the world around me and the people in it. Any contact with other people just hurt too much. As I have slowly recovered my arts, my sensitivity has begun to return. I don't always consider this a good thing, but I won't run from it anymore. Keep the faith, Danny.

    I'm creative a lot of my sensitivity is due to my autism which I found out about 2 years ago. Yes Ive had a lot of autistic meltdowns without knowing why. I lot of what was in the video applies. But I think in terms of handling of criticism in terms of art i find it easy. I think if I was doing professionally the stress of situation and pressure would compound criticism not because i need positive feed back all the time just because i'm feeling overwhelmed in general. So I preempt and have decided not put myself in situations that I know I find overwhelming unless accommodations can be made. Although at min i need to learn to trust people again which im finding rather difficult as I have found people like to kick you when your down. Not everyone but enough to make feel like being very very introverted. I think for know I am just tipping my toes back into society by going to social groups like arts and crafts, art lessons and volunteering. So if anyone feel like this i suggest starting very slow it can be just taking a walk once a day and building form there. Remember your own personal needs and Goldfish need water to live.
    That is all. Wishing everyone well on their creative journeys. :)

    Thank you❤ I used to think that i was not good enough, because i was this sensitive, introvert, artistic soul. That EVERYONE else was so good at getting great educations and working hard at normal jobs. And i was the only one who just couldnt bear it. Now at least i know im not the only one. It is more normal to be like this than i thought.
    Ive struggled so much with figuring out what im supposed to do with my life. I cant find a job that fits me. Being around people wears me out and i need my alone time.
    I think that we make art because it is a place where we can be ourselves fully when we dont fit into the world.
    It is a channel to prosess and express what we feel.
    It is a way to make the fine things that we pick up on visible/tangible to the world.

    I did very little art during high school, because the teacher told me that I shouldn’t take art because I couldn’t draw. Luckily when I was in my late twenties, I ended up in an art class instead of a computer class and got the best teacher who was able to steer me in the right direction. Every now and then I have to get past the block and start again. Your videos help with that, thank you

    Thank you for this. I have, at times, felt so raw I didn't think I could bear people at all. Yes, "too sensitive" was hurled at me often. One relative remarked, as I broke down in tears over something as a young teen, "boy, I hate to see her go out and face the world." I have not been productive with my art which I regret (late 60s) but another commentor used this wording: "I use my art to regulate" which you were alluding to, as well. I hope I can get to the point where that is what I am doing. There's so much I'd like to do! So much beauty, so much that is a marvel, so much to touch & be touched by. 🤞

    @mysticwellreiki 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Yes, sensitivity is a gift. From this perspective, most sensitives develop coping skills later in life (almost too late). Imagine if there were thousands of years of learning to cultivate the sensitive/artist aspect of self? Instead there are many who discount your experience, observations and creative self. You have to ask why that is? There are probably a myriad of reasons for it, but sometimes I wonder if it is fear. I am fine being sensitive now, and have a couple of tools to help me navigate, but sometimes I do feel alone in the crowd. And when someone does say something...I tell them, yes, it's my job to be sensitive. Are they up for the task? Great video, thank you.

    Being an artist means opening your heart to the world and perceiving the world with all its clarity. Artists feel the pain and compassion in the world more. This is why artists feel the pain of those in Gaza more deeply. But words and drawings are no longer enough to describe the pain:(

    Hey Danny,
    The things that you are mentioning in your video are so real to me and relatable too. I get stressed when I compare with normal standards that are already set in our society. When I accept my limits as it is, it relieves me. When I accept that I get overwhelmed, anxious, stressed easily, seeing this fact and not trying to change that, helps release a lot of stress.
    Yes, we can be sensitive people and need support from others. You and Your words are helpful. You connect us with our authentic self. And this is a very big thing I see. Thank you

    This really speaks to me, and it's a bit of a revelation. Someone told me that I was sensitive, and I took it to be negative. I thought it was a symptom of a mental or emotional disorder, but listening to this tells me that it's not because of some perceived inadequacy (of not being "normal" or neurotypical), I'm beginning to understand that it's part of a creative's nature. And I appreciate that; it helps me accept this part of me, and that I need to give myself grace and let it help me in my creative endeavors, or in life in general.
    Thank you for sharing your insights.😊

I grew up with much older parents, so I'm also a bit too serious of a person for most people...But, I am happiest when I am sketching, drawing, or engaged in other artwork...It's refreshing to my spirit each and every time.

  • @lakritzeslena

    I'm so glad i found your channel. Thank you! I always was "artsy" and sensitive, and difficult. And i struggled big time. Burned out a lot, could not do art anymore, then, got diagnosed with ADHD.
    Half a year ago i began drawing again, just for me, this time. In my childhood and youth everyone told me to become an artist, it was the only thing i could do and got compliments for- so it put a lot of pressure on producing something valuable and good...and it nearly destroyed my ability to enjoy it.
    Now, after i decided to quit trying producing art for others, or illustrating stuff.
    I can just paint and try new stuff, have fun.
    Draw in a train and take my sketchbook home with my "harvest of moments" and its a delight.
    And suffering from some obsession, and making art out of it, it hurts, but it becomes something beautiful. It makes it more bearable.
    I would not want to miss that ability to feel all of that, but it sure is hell of a job.
    I went through many treatments in my life and some medication i got, numbed me from feeling the art itch, and the deep felt stuff, and it felt worthless for me. (Other pharmacological stuff helped me a lot, not to say that it all is bad. It can help a lot).
    This evening im struggling, with emotional stuff. And i thought about buying alcohol and numbing myself a bit, and then i saw this video, and you reminded me that its worth feeling the feels.
    There is just so much wisdom in your videos, its been a few times now that you saved a day for me, and lifted my spirits.

    Thank you for talking about it ! This talk speaks so much to me, this confirms what I was thinking for a while now, about why I lost my creativity.
    I used to be very sensitive, unfortunately at that time I didn’t know it was my strength for creativity.
    Then, 8 years ago, I was fed up being so sensitive because I was not understood by people around, and it hurt so much. so I did everything I could to shut down my heart and my emotions. It became easier to deal with people….
    But I didn’t realise I was drawing less and less, writing my poems less and less, being completely sucked into a reality without emotion, focusing on my job.
    Since then, I am unable to draw with my heart. The magic for drawing like I used to is not there anymore.
    When I realised it, it was too late.
    Now I am trying to find my way back, to find my emotions and creativity again. I don’t know how to find it back, but I will try.
    Thank you for this interesting talk !

    It is indeed a great gift and a burden, but over the last 10 years or so I did manage to find such a mental health routine for myself that I now can say that I wouldn't want to miss my creative, sensitive self anynmore, although the burden can still be very heavy. Having 2 dear friends who can relate because they are creative and sensitive helps enormously, and I'm very grateful for being in that position ❤

    I am a sensitive creative. I never really connected the two pieces of myself until I saw this video. You described me perfectly! It makes so much sense. I have learned to "appear" thick skinned at work (I do customer service and have a tightly wound type A boss) but I am really just hiding everything from everyone until I reach a breaking point. My creativity has always been my therapy. Lately I have been too wrapped up in the emotions to relax enough to be creative. Watching this video, along with the one you did on procrastination, has convinced me to create no matter how I feel. Even if the art is as ugly as I feel inside, it may resonate with someone else...and make me feel better at the same time! Thank you so much for the gentle push. I needed that! Now, no more distractions...I have things to create...even if it isn't beautiful and perfect! 😂

    I’m definitely what oeople would call a highly sensitive person. It can be so bad that sometimes I just overreact and come to the wrong conclusion. We just feel like people don’t like me for no reason if that makes any sense. When I feel completely overwhelmed by all the noise and energy plus all the feelings that come with that being a highly sensitive person I find myself just shutting down, which is how I handle things plus art. It’s funny never realized that has to do with being a creative person. I just thought that’s how I was, I really enjoyed this little chat that you shared with us

    A friend once said to me that he thought a picture I'd drawn wasn't as good as the previous one and that one comment stopped me drawing for years. Absolutely NOT his fault, but it could've been phrased better. I was highly *over* sensitive until I was diagnosed with ADHD. The medication removed a lot of that and things improved considerably.

    I relate to a little bit of what you said, but not most of it. I'm sensitive, yes but not uncontrollably so. But I've been in therapy and have been working hard on myself spiritually and mentally since my early twenties. So maybe all that has paid off. I think the artistic expression I've done over the years, be it writing or drawing, has helped me regulate. I like how you called it a safety valve. Sometimes it's easy to overthink and over feel. And you have to find your way of winding it down. Calming your inner self down and chilling out. ❤

    I've always considered my creativity intimately linked to my soul.. to my spirit, to my essential Self, my spirituality. It's definitely all linked. I consider my creativity both curse and blessing. It's lonely, horribly so, so many of my friends have been alienated by my writing, my art at every level, at all periods of my life, I don't want to ever share again, anything... I don't know how to collapse the last few blocks to releasing the flood, inside and I've lost the desire to do so. This has been a terribly frustrating lifetime. I'm at a cross-roads ... I've always considered life, living, itself, a form of art. We weave the warp and weft of our lives and it becomes a tapestry that we give to God, at the end of our lives, as gift.

I have learned to stay away from energy vampires. I value and protect my time and space. Art has always been an anchor for me. My art is my expression of who I am. I don't share this carelessly. Art has healed a lot of pain in my life also. Thank you for giving me sonething to think about.

    My teacher, during my time of training, told me, that I am someone who is always catastrophizing..
    She didnt really get me ^^`
    But to be honest, i didnt get myself either

    Of course I'm sensitive! How else would i know my response to cropping a ¼" more or less makes or breaks an image. Or if this red doesn't go with that red but if you add a chartreuse sort of glaze in between it really sets them both off? If i weren't so damned sensitive. And I've trained and honed that sensitivity through my life. Being sensitive means knowing my response to something. I'm an artist to give it something to do. Aloha

    I've been considered "too sensitive" all of my life. In over half a century I still haven't grown a "thick skin" when it comes to criticism. I try to take lessons from honest feedback and use it to make better art, but I still find myself stinging from the comments--I always remember the negatives and forget about all the positive feedback I've received. Maybe after another 50 years I'll retain the lessons from the praise as well as the criticism.

    Karel here good advice I build walls, exercise an don't waste my time on negative people. Nature is a healer. At least I understand why I'm so sensitive. I'm a artist that people don't realize how much we notice about the world an there are lots of evil people out there so let's praise us, the good people of the world that care about others.
