miho 312 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Because I'am, and it's a nightmare. For example, I'm easily upset when someone scold me or mock me (for example last saturday, a security guard scolded me and my friend because unknown people wanted to enter with us in a bar but they weren't allowed, so I'm still upset about this today yet it probably took 10 seconds for my friends to forget this). I'm always into parano mode, like "She didn't smile to me, so she probably hates me." "Will it be ok if I do this? ". I'm even sensitive to smells and perfumes, etc... Apparently 1 out of 5 people have this (so about 20%). I feel like an asocial freak tbh For those who don't know what is this shit : "A highly sensitive person (HSP) is a person having the innate trait of high sensory processing sensitivity (or innate sensitiveness as Carl Jung originally coined it [...] The attributes of HSPs can be remembered as DOES: Depth of processing. Over aroused (easily compared to others) Emotional reactivity and high empathy Sensitivity to subtle stimuli. HSP students work differently from others. They pick up on subtleties and may think about them a long time before demonstrating their grasp of a subject. If an HSP student is not contributing much to a discussion, it does not necessarily mean he or she does not understand or is too shy. HSPs often have insights they are afraid to reveal because they differ from the common view, or because speaking up is too over arousing for them. HSPs are often very conscientious, and gifted with great intelligence, intuition and imagination, but underperform when being evaluated." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SammyJe 1,417 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Oh god this is so me. I especially hate when I cry over the simplest things. It's so annoying like my Chinese teachers kinda gets an attitude when can't get things right. Usually everyone gets over after their that class but it takes me days to get over something like that.

Elisa 1,353 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Just remind yourself that life is too short for all this worrying nonsense. Its not always gonna work, but at least keep that in mind when you're stressing out. And don't give it that much thought, or else it could stress you out even more. Also try to look at the positives of being a sensitive person, its not really that bad of a thing when you think about it. Better than the opposite in my opinion, being insensitive (and theres way to many of those) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaraSiorai 525 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I can relate. For me, I try to avoid situations that may lead me to feel anxiety when analysing them later. Thats not always easy though so I try to tell myself that most things aren't as bad as I'm making them out to be in my head. As in, that look doesn't mean they hate me. That comment isn't them calling me a loser. And that not everything is personal, its tough but you have to tell yourself its not as bad as you think.

SuJuforever15 301 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I have this and I hate it...It sucks being so sensitive and crying over small things that people probably don't even care about. I also think such crazy things just because someone didn't smile at me or something and hold super long grudges.It's nice to know there are other people who have this on here.

North and South 4,680 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 From that description, I guess I am O.o I too am often really affected if someone gets mad at me. Like when my parents get mad, my brothers are able to ignore it however I will often be extremely affected by it days later. Or like the first day back, when we have to pair up for labs and stuff, I feel like I'm way too conscious about other people, and their reactions/ tones. Or I'll get really affected by books or movies that I've seen and be depressed about them. It's kind of scary, and I think it gets better when I can identify that I am being hypersensitive and try to calm myself down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
