  • Do you consider yourself a deep thinker and feel things much more intensely than others? If you answered yes, then chances are you’re part of the small percentage of people who are highly sensitive. Being a Highly Sensitive Person - or HSP - means that you are naturally predisposed to process and perceive information on a much deeper level than most. You’re also likely perceptive, empathetic, intuitive, and self-aware. HSPs are also emotionally intelligent and incredibly creative, passionate, people.
    As you can imagine, though, feeling and processing more intensely has some downsides. So without further ado, here are 13 struggles only Highly Sensitive People will probably relate to

    I am highly sensitive. I have great friends that I grew up with and still are friends. What I realised is I can't take jokes. I don't know how to differentiate between jokes and mockery so I tend to take offense when they are just foolishly joking around. I know how it feels like to me so I don't do the same to other people. I don't want to go out often because it's tiring to feel hurt all the time.

    We can sense the atmosphere the moment we walk into a room, or if there is the slightest change in mood, even if only between two other people, we feel the tension and become unbearably uncomfortable where others would not even notice. It is also harder to receive love - in my case it’s always “what’s the catch?” or hold back because the more reliant we feel about someone, the more severe the anxiety of how we will cope when it inevitably end. Also, or certainly in my case, HSPs annotate and will not ask for help.

      Yes it happens , it feels like we care abt the other person so muchh that we want to be there for them , but smtms we become overcaring bcoz we observe a slightest chng in them and other hand it even hurts bcoz some people can't feel the same way you do and they will never understand .
      Smtms we even expect someone to feel and understand us and be there for us just like we are there for everyone just because we feel so deeply

      Asking for help has always been a huge challenge, even something as basic as asking someone to help me move a heavy piece of furniture. Since early childhood (am now 76 😱) I learned to be self-reliant and not let on that I needed anything.
      Thanks for this.
      I discovered years ago when Elaine Aron first came out with HSP information that I was an HSP, but it helps to be reminded. It's easy to fall back into the feeling that something's wrong with you, especially when someone close to you flat out tells you so. 🙏🏼🤗❤️

    "As a highly sensitive person myself, I can totally relate to these 13 problems! It's tough feeling everything so deeply and being easily overwhelmed by sensory input. But at the same time, being highly sensitive can also be a gift - it allows us to appreciate beauty and connect with others on a deeper level. It's important for us to recognize and honor our sensitivity, while also finding ways to manage it in a world that can be overwhelming at times. Thanks for sharing this insightful video!"

      It's a gift and a problem, like any other trait. Some of these problems can be lessened, I managed to not take things personally and, very important, to say no. Others, I doubt can ever be solved - like needing quite alone time.
      My biggest concern was always being accused of being lazy when people can't understand that dealing with interactions, others'emotions and social setting exhausts me, us, more than others.

    I have this thing with noises. If the tv is on, my husband is listening to music and then gets on the phone talking loud, I have to turn one of the noises off and go to my quiet spot. It takes me 10-20 minutes to regain my composure and come back out of the room and maybe continue the tv or whatever. I get scattered and frazzled easily. I tell my husband “ Nope! I can’t to three. Turn that off or I’ll turn mine off.” I can’t really do concerts anymore, too much stimuli. I don’t understand the need to all crowd together and have loudness from every direction. I also have a preconceived notion of how things should turn out and they usually don’t go that way and I’m constantly let down. Oh and I noticed that as more and more people get around me, the more I can’t focus and get nervous. I love one on one friendships, groups are to scattered for me. I do admire people who do associate in groups. Recently, if I see violence on tv, I turn the channel, it’s just too much. Society has gone wild. The news isn’t in everyday in our house, I have to take a break from it often. I want to laugh, and find it hard to find truly funny comedy anymore.

So I cry more because I feel bad because I just swatted them or maybe even scratched them/hit them because being touched while emotional makes me uncomfortable and irritable, so I might have hurt them because of my past trauma, which wasn’t even related to them, but anyways I feel bad for maybe hurting them while they’re trying to make me feel better, and then i just think back to the trauma and then I get uncomfortable and angry and shameful and embarrassed, and viola, I cry some more.

    I relate to a lot of these as an autistic person, and my neurodivergent friends share and talk about issues like these. Most of them tie in with sensory overloads/sensory issues in general, as well as the general issues caused by autism and other neurodivergencies. Some of the ones that I experience personally, like needing excess alone time, are caused by masking too much and needing to wind down after sensory overloads, meltdowns, or just being with too many people for too long.

      A lot of people tried telling me I was just a HSP my whole life. I'm not. I know that lol. I've always known that. Since I was born, the talk about possible autism didn't really stop, it was constantly hinted at and redirected with my other comorbidities... my psych finally said its time to get evaluated, they've exhausted their resources.. I'm sure hearing HSP to someone either not or on the neurodivergent spectrum (but not ASD) can be helpful but this drives me up the wall sometimes because this actually downplays the intensity, frequency and life long hindrances of my own "behaviors" mainly avoidance, and the issues I struggle with daily. My providers trying to label me as HSP didn't help anything but exasperated my issues.

      I wonder about it too. When I'm feeling down, when someone tells me one bad thing about myself, when someone tells me I could have done something differently, when someone wants something from me and I try explaining them I don't want to, but end up saying yes and then being mad at myself. Being sorrowful that no one understands me. Wishing I wasn't so sensitive. Worrying about everything little thing that happened. Putting the blame on me while justifying others.
      They don't have a problem pointing things out when I do something wrong. But when I, after being silent for a longer time, finally say that what they do is not okay, they're so surprised. They suddenly feel attacked and find me unreasonable.
      Yeah how often I wish I was different. Or maybe for others to understand my point of view. Why is it that I can understand them and justify their actions while they just can't or find me unreasonable. It would be just so much easier if no one was sensitive. I mean why would I care about those little things? Why don't others care? Why can't I not care?
      Does it make the world a better place? Does it? What does it give me that I notice the smallest changes in people's moods? Right but it's about me, not the world. Honestly at the moment I don't see how is it good for either; me or the world

    I can honestly say I check many of these boxes. The things that I can most definitely relate to are: I get emotionally exhausted easily, I scrutinize social interactions, I have a hard time moving on, I’m somewhat uncomfortable with change depending on what it is), I don’t react well to criticism or conflict (this is a big one for me), I don’t do well under pressure (I get overwhelmed easily), boundaries are easily crossed (I have a hard time saying no), I’m my own worst critic, I require alone time (my famous phrase is, “I need peace,” & I’m often misunderstood (100% on this one!) I often feel that I have to explain myself because I’m very much understood. It’s exhausting & frustrating, & many times it leads to conflicts. This is because people think I’m complaining, when all I’m doing is trying to explain myself. I truly am a kind hearted & friendly person, but over the years I’ve become more introverted because it’s so hard for me to get others to understand me. I also feel deeply & always go out of my way to help others. This often leads to people taking advantage of my kind nature as well as confuse my kindness for weakness. That’s when I get mad at myself & wish I could be less sensitive & have the ability to say no when I need to. 😔

    I'm a man, 68 years old. The way I learned I was "sensitive" was around my 7 years, being a boy ans sensitive is a good recipe to be bullied, as you said, I didn't understand violence and cruelty, so I became the target. As teen, I had mastered the art of "not crying", what ever happened, I also learned I could not hurt other people without hurting myself.I became stoic before I knew it was a thing. It didn't stop the bullying, I was a "strange" guy, I could "read minds". I was a "difficult child", so I've been expelled from 4 schools, not understanding, then, why. Later, as an adult, I got used to have perfect strangers telling me their life...and their problems. Why to me? When I ask to some of them: because I seemed a "nice" guy. My daughter, years later, told me I was HSP, The concept did not exist when I was young. Now I know, but I still can't stand more then 5 people around me. Saturation?

    Once when I was in fifth grade a friend that lived in my neighborhood had been sick for a long time and came back to school on the day we had a test. I sat next to her and was so worried about her being able to do well that I glanced over to see how she was doing. The teacher thought I was copying, I was not. I was so upset. She embarrassed me in front of the entire class and I was mortified. But how do you explain that you care so much that you were worried about her and who would believe you! She changed my seat right then. But being so sensitive I didn’t say a thing. I couldn’t believe she would think I would copy, much less copy off of someone that hadn’t even been in school for weeks. I am now in my 70’s and have never forgotten this. Just lately have been watching things about HSP’s and am so glad I finally understand that being sensitive is not bad, just different. Always was told I was too sensitive and emotional like it was a bad thing. But, learned to appreciate my sensitivity. My skin was even sensitive when I was very young and I remember that some clothes actually hurt to me because some seams would bother me. I loved the story about The Princess and the Pea because I felt that at least someone understood and was like me! Bet the person that wrote that fairy tale was a HSP!

      If it gives you anxiety, you can best work on your posture (so you will stand stronger/better in your own energy). Try to find what the cause is of the anxiety, so why are you anxious, judgement? What kind of judgement, and why again.

    Wow I really feel understood now! For months i’ve been thinking I was depressed or that I have anxiety problems but now I know
    i’m just an HSP, as much as I don’t want to admit that i’m a sensitive person I am. People tend to say i’m overreacting with things that are actually very hurtful to me and I never understood why I get so hurt over them because there small things. My mother always tells me to toughen up and she always wonders why I act and feel the way that I do. But I have came to a realization that this is just simply who I am. Sadly I can’t change it but at least I can come to terms with it.

    A question to you all....
    Do you people ever feel like you want to save or change the whole world around you, you want to have more social interactions with people about feelings and thoughts and you are very passionate about the beauty of the world but somehow you drown in your own thoughts and can't step out of your brain? Like, actually doing passionate things to make people smile or the world better but you're overthinking so much that you're exhausted? You never really feel that people REALLY understand you, as you think you're alone with this HUGE galaxy of thoughts in your head? Like, really feeling alone because you have noone in realife who is like you but is finding comfort in yt comments, where I don't see the people behind them?
    Did you ever feel like this text could be wrote by you and you have a strong boundary with a stranger that could be anywhere?
    ... This was not supposed to be this long but at least you might guessed by now that I am an extremely sensitive overthinker. :) you are not alone with this. I love you ppl.
    Edit: hey I'm so happy to see you guys feeling the same as me, this proves to me that these thoughts are not wandering in my head alone:) there are more of our kind.

      You have to reign in your mind. Having a sensitive and fast mind means you can drown in your own thoughts and emotions, sit still and contemplate things for 20 minutes a day and try to control your mind. You will be a puppet to your thoughts and feelings if you don't slow your thoughts down and challenge your emotions, you can do the things you want but only if you act according to how you know you should and according to plans you make. Don't allow whims and fallacies to control your actions.

    It's amazing how the discovering of being an HSP has changed my entire perception of my personality. I am no longer something that needs to be 'fixed'.
    I've always enjoyed being empathetic though, and truly connecting with people. But it does make connecting all the harder, as I find I can only truly form bonds with a fare few people. The rest I find too loud, or that we completely misunderstand one another.
    This video hits the nail on the head for me, except performing under pressure and taking criticism. However, this is due to me being a designer and web developer.You can't be in the design industry and not take criticism, but this took a lot of practice and I'm proud to say criticism washes over me little water off a duck's back now

      @@_froskkk_58 That's why I have stopped caring about the opinions of other people some time ago. In this mode you are putting additional pressure onto yourself, which you should avoid by all means.
      The best thing is staying true to your heart instead of warping yourself into some form that isn't you (and which you most likely don't like, either).
      Once you stop doing that, you are going to notice that you are feeling much more balanced, which in turn should be enough to reduce your need to cry.
      Nonetheless there's nothing wrong with crying since it is a natural way to express your feelings.
      Besides, who is the stronger person? The one who is suppressing his feelings, because he has to prove everyone that he is strong or the one who has no problems expressing them and doesn't give a damn about how others are perceiving him?

    -thinking inanimate things have feelings
    -overthinking others words/emotions
    -being uncomfortable around major emotions (anger, sadness, etc)
    -great at reading body language
    -love being alone at times
    -others dictate your feelings (how others feel is how you feel)
    -easily falling for tv characters
    -feeling like no one can help how you feel
    -you hate change
    -you’re neutral in fights
    -stress is 100x worse for you than others
    -you cry for everything and anything
    -you might be more artistic
    -movies move you more than others
    -you have a hard time saying no
    -people enjoy being around you
    -people say you’re a great friend
