When I was younger people were always telling me, that I'm "too sensitive" and "too emotional". My empathy is one of my biggest strengths but also one of my biggest flaws. When I talked to my therapist that I might have ADHD, she told me that it could also be that I'm just highly sensitive and that opened my eyes to everything that has been going on.

[@Anaconda-kkkjjjjjkk]

I was told to be too sensitive as well, but I also have troubles concentrating so I'm pretty sure I have both.

I feel you. My peer also said to me that I'm to sensitive or emotional. My therapist also examined me if I had ADHD, but she said that I'm HSP.

[@RainbowEssence-c3w]

Yeah I feel you, I was often told that too growing up. Currently in the process of seeking an ADHD diagnosis because I think I might have it. I have to wonder how much overlap there is between being and HSP and ADHD? A part of me wonders if maybe HSPs have ADHD but just went undetected and undiagnosed because they have inattentive type (formerly known as ADD) which is less obvious and disruptive than the stereotypical hyperactive type that most people think of when they think of ADHD. Also sadly many girls have gone undiagnosed because women are more likely to have the inattentive type which, again tends to go unnoticed plus ADHD in girls tends to manifest differently. That and unfortunately a bias in the medical community that is only now being addressed that ADHD is mostly or only a condition little boys can have.

[@Imagistorm]

I am definitely an HSP but I am also quite a strong extrovert. This combination was hard to manage when I was growing up. I liked going to events to meet and talk to new people, but I was also terrified of the idea since it would take a huge emotional toll on me. I've had to learn that I need a very specific amount of time spent socializing, otherwise, if I go over this limit, I get very overwhelmed and sometimes have to take time to recover for a few days. Also, I've felt misunderstood by most of my extrovert friends who think I'm trying to shelter myself against the problems of the world when I don't want to learn about social justice issues. For me it's an actual serious protection I need to make for my mental health. I can't input the same amount of emotional stimulus that others can handle. Anyway, any other HSP/extroverts feel me?

[@ellengrace4609]

I definitely relate, about the socializing and also about limiting my exposure to the atrocities in the world. I stopped watching news many years ago. I am a strong advocate for certain situations and people who have difficulty self-advocating, but I cannot handle the overall horribleness that exists in this world. I don’t think any of us are meant to be exposed to all the bad that is happening in the world. We wouldn’t even know about most of it 100 years ago. You know yourself best, so keep on doing what you need to take care of your own needs. ❤

I have a pretty strict rule about media consumption and what news I follow. If it's something I can't do anything about, I don't dive into details, and I won't let other people get me worked up about it. I used to be constantly stressed and distressed by how much suffering there is in the world. Now I pay attention to and volunteer with things I can impact and let the rest go. I'm glad you've set that boundary for yourself. Never worry about criticism from people who don't experience things as deeply as you do. They're not the ones who can't sleep at night from the overwhelm.

@randomspacefan"Just stop being sensitive" - it's not easy like that. It might seem like it's just something that's just changed in 1 day, but it's changed over long periods of time. You obviously didn’t have HSP in the first place, or at least a more intense case of it.

[@Anaconda-kkkjjjjjkk]

My father used to yell at me when I cried and told me to stop. I was never crying for attention, but sometimes from frustration or because of small things people said to me, and I always tried to hide it. It is not a choice. I spent my whole life building a facade and did all I could so people wouldn't have anything remotely bad to say to me. A simple "no" hurts way to much, my subconscious tells me its my fault and I shouldn't have asked that. They actually said it in the video, that its a personality trait. 6:52

I have to be H.S.P. but I'm a 45 year old woman that works in retail. I've learned to express my kindness and grow in my capacity to deal with people. Because I have also been taken advantage of due to my friendliness and trustworthiness, I've learned to spot characteristics that are not positive, and to stick up for myself. You may be your worst critic but you are also your own best advocate. I'm very misunderstood but I've grown accustomed to no one getting me. I long to meet someone that does, but it won't stop me from living if I don't.

[@wimsylogic65]

I'm a highly sensitive person. I overwhelmingly check all of these boxes. Always thought it was a combination of curse and blessing. If I don't get a break from being around people, If I've taken in too much information, My body will stop taking an information. It will shut down and there is nothing I can do about it. I'll become unable to hear or taken what people say, My body will start feeling fuzzy. And my vision will start being less clear. My pariphial Vision will get faded. And everything from the core of my being and my body won't want to just lie down and sleep. When that happens no matter how hard I try I can not focus on anything. Sometimes I'll even lose control Of my body movements. My body will feel heavier, But the pivot points, Where my body can bend and twist, Knees ankles hips midrift, neck, Et cetera, Become really loose. And being able to move my body feels like I have to manually do so. Takes so much concentration. And then I'll get missed fires, Like trying to control my body with screws loose Like there's rust on the frame but the joints are all loose and well-oiled. Talking becomes harder. Have to literally spit out words and have trouble finding the right kind of word that I mean to say. And then my mouth will stumble or mess up saying it. sound drunk And stupid. It's frustrating. I'll also start feeling very cold and uncontrollably shaking. Imagine I also get very pale, More so than I usually am. And my eyesight won't be able to focus easily, It gets to the point of being like trying to focus using a microscope and constantly overshooting it. My body is hyper Aware to the tiniest changes in my self, and surroundings. And instantly becomes obsessed and investigates. All this done passively. Like osmosis. I have to cater to how my exterior body feels in order to bring harmony to inside my body. That means I have to have clothes that will make me comfortable for the slightest shifts in temperature. Or my focus will be completely on whatever is making me uncomfortable. In order for me to not become obsessed and not think about it I need to solve the problem of what's uncomfortable. Hair out of place remove it, Or in the case with my teeth actively try to ignore it. I often sometimes feel the urge to pull my teeth just because I feel pressure from them. I couldn't have fingernails for the longest time because I could feel any kind of dirt or dust underneath them and i'd obsessively be cleaning them. So in order to not worry about it I just didn't have nails. However recently I found Found nail polish to be very beneficial. Out of sight out of mind does help. But over the years I've also taught myself to not entirely act on the impulse I get from the feelings. It's like I instinctively, Deactivate The connection between impulse and action. So I have the thoughts I have the feelings but I don't entirely act on it. Oh I'm sorry this got way too long I didn't mean it to.

I will always reminisce about the day or the week at the end of the day to analyze all my mistakes, cringe moments and how I feel about them. Talking to myself out loud definitely helps but I always do it when I'm in the shower and when I'm alone. I'm my best listener cause after analysing what I'm feeling upset about and the cause of it, I will feel ready and refreshed cause I will always find a good side to it. Always think positive to overcome overanalysing.

Hey there Psych2go. I have not been diagnosed but as a young person who struggles with mental health and emotional regulation I'd say I'm pretty on the HSP side. I'd like to suggest you make a video on HSP children for parents.

[@Scribble_Dreams]

As a highly sensitive person, this is how I function: 1. I need at least 10 to 11 hours of sleep to function at my best. When I don't I become cranky or I become silly. Like that silly drunk person. Only it's on sleep deprivation. 2. I can handle noise up to a certain degree but not crowds of people. I like going to Anime cons sometimes but I always need to prepare myself (like 2 weeks in advance... no joke) and then rest for a few days with minimum socialization. 3. I am usually emotionally exhausted either from my own emotions or others. When I talk to someone, especially regarding a heavy topic it's like I can feel their emotions as if they were mine because of how intense it is. 4. I read people and situations well. So constant social interactions such as school and work are hard to handle sometimes. It's like a floodgate of emotions and different personalities hitting my "HSR Sensor" constantly making it feel like I'm being overloaded. I am also constantly told that I am mature for my age so I also have this expectation and have been told some things even from a young age that I probably couldn't handle or know how to process their emotions and mine. 5. In my case I can handle violence in movies and books. Such as a fight scene or a battle between a monster and a hero kind of stuff. It's when someone is being unnecessarily rude to someone that I don't handle well. Especially when emotions get involved. And any sign of aggression or agitation from people I don't do well with. But this is just my experience and other HSPs struggle with this. Also, I am the crybaby at the movies always. 6. I do have a hard time moving on and it could be on anything. Like a mistake I made or how hurt I was by someone. I try not to hold "grudges" but it is hard for me to move on. To not feel hurt. I like things to be resolved or fixed right away, but many times in life, it won't happen like that. 7. In my case actually I need a bit of change to feel comfortable. When I mean by change I have to every month clean and reorganize my room. Now this is probably my OCD talking but this is my experience. Though in bigger situations, indeed, I don't like change. Especially when it impacts the time that I need to myself. 8. I don't react well with criticism and conflict. I'm the type of person to always avoids conflict as best as I can. Whether it's by trying to do my best not to upset someone or always fixing other's mistakes and taking on their troubles so that conflict won't happen. When I'm in conflict with someone I am overwhelmed and sometimes due to the pressure and the amount of stress I feel I can have panic attacks and emotionally shut down for some time. It's like my "HSR sensor" malfunctioned and had to do a system reboot. This is NOT a healthy way to deal with conflict and is something I am working on. 9. Just like I said in situations of conflict I also don't do well under pressure. For example, let's say someone gives me a task to do then another person gives me 3 other tasks to do. Then a third person comes along and gives me 4 tasks to do. I know have to do 8 tasks in the same period and I have to meet the demands of each person. In situations like this my "HSR sensor" freaks out and then I have to recuperate and often remove some of the tasks and do them later. Consistent deadlines personally I have adapted to handle it due to school but it is still hard sometimes. 10. Boundaries are healthy and everyone needs them. For me, I may have more than the average person you could say but they are crossed almost constantly. Like I have been told that I am a very approachable and kind person. I am also told that I am a therapist friend. Due to this, I get told things even by complete strangers that I probably can't handle or need time to sort out. Sometimes even though I want to be there and help someone and sometimes feel obligated to I also have my own emotions and sense I can feel emotions so strong I need time to process and untangle mine and the other person's emotions and not take it in as my own. When an HSR person takes in someone's emotions it can spell disaster sometimes. Sometimes we also just need to put more of a boundary on what people share because of this. We're not trying to be mean I promise. 11. I am my own worst critic for sure. I am told this on the daily by others and I know that I am for myself. It is hard not to be honest. 12. I require lots of alone time. Basically, the amount of work I do whether it's school, work, babysitting, or other things I need I would say the quarter equivalent of that amount of time. Which sometimes is a lot and unfortunately do not have the time in my week to do so. But if I don't get alone time it really affects me and sometimes even though I am busy and tired and need sleep to function I cut into that time because I am so desperate to destress and untangle emotions. Or I just need a moment to breathe. Otherwise, even in my dreams, I will feel like I'm suffocating. 13. I am often misunderstood and told that I am being dramatic and I am far too emotional. It took me a long time to figure out I was a highly sensitive person. I do my best to understand other people's perspectives but no one can understand mine. They may be my parents, best friends, and anyone else. But no one I know understands my perspective and that can be really isolating and for me makes me feel like an anomaly or a defect in society. This isn't true but it is how I feel. And something I am still coming to terms with. That is my experience when it comes to all the issues presented in the video. HSPs even though we struggle with these issues we still want to be there for people and I do want to clarify that peoples emotions can be overwhelming and a stressor for us but the person in question is NOT a burden and you never will be. Just because are needs are different doesn't mean you can't tell your HSR friend things it just we may need more time then others. If you have questions and/or are a highly sensitive person please reach out and talk to me. I don't mind answering questions and I would like to know your guy's experiences as well. Thank you Phy2go for making this video and I hope everyone has a great day. :)

[@ArrowsmithBA3]

I’m on the fence whether or not I would consider myself HSP. Granted, I grew up with more of the common traits, but I lead myself to believe I was oversensitive. That’s why I was socially outcasted 9 times out of 10 during childhood. However, I grew out of a lot of what would bother me then. I used to be a crier; seeing anyone cry or seeing disaster on the news used to trigger that. Now, I would say I show a strong emotional sense of empathy by showing my support and strength by not crying when someone else is. It takes a lot to get me to cry. But at the same time, if I feel overwhelmed with romantic feelings that I can’t process, I do tend to tear up… thankfully my partner thinks that makes the connection greater and that I’m not immature.😅 I was labeled with “Asperger’s Syndrome” before being reclassified as Higher Functioning ASD; I was triggered very easily by others raising their voice, sudden noises and pitches and high intensities of color or action on TV/Movies Granted, I still become uneasy when watching “Natural Disaster” movies; I tend to have panic attacks/anxiety with movies with others in peril, yet I still have respect for the effects and effort put into movies like that from an artistic POV. I do tend to overanalyze things to a point of driving me crazy, and do need reminders to talk me down from a frenzy. I’m often told I have a pleasant personality and a soft approach, and people have a tough time believing I can be the most unrecognizable mess to trifle with when I rage at my worst… Granted, I’ve learned how to cope and manage my mood disorders and am at a peak point in my life, making a lot of progress. Socially I’ve come out of my shell, enough so to be in my first relationship with somebody. And I couldn’t be any more thankful for that. My partner thinks I’m very mature for my age and have a strong sense of respecting her needs and boundaries. My overall purpose is to have her comfortable knowing her sensories and needs; Knowing she’s comfortable makes me feel accomplished as a partner. Truth is I get lost when I lay on her lap and she runs her fingers through my hair. It keeps her stimulated and helps her relax. I’m not used to having such interaction with anyone, but I feel such indulgence is warranted. Nevertheless I do have some things I need to overcome, but having others that support and encourage me in life definitely helps. Idk maybe I am HSP but don’t know if associated with the term is warranted… if anyone reads this, I’d like to know your input. ❤ Be well and have a great day!

[@DoofenSpyroDragon16]

This is literally me too. I used to cry more often at the simplest things, like something unexpected that catches me off guard or someone insulting someone. I don’t anymore, but it still affects me deeply. So in grade school, we were learning about what bullying was, and we’re told to insult this little green paper person, just to show the metaphor of “you can apologize but it’ll never be the same” because the end of it was us saying nice things to it and taping it back together to symbolize the effects of bullying (beautiful bittersweet metaphor now that I think of it.) Anyway, when it came to my turn, I didn’t want to, and I’d already had an insult ready 😆 but I didn’t, I just sat there and got upset and started crying because A. First of all, I thought it was mean and B. I didn’t understand why we were being told to bully when we were just told it was bad like a minute ago! So the teacher took me aside and by that point, I was crying so hard I couldn’t articulate why I was upset (don’t think I’d be able to even if I could though) So yeah, that’s my high sensitivity story. Hope any other HSPs relate 😄

It's amazing to be able to look from the window and be deeply astounded and be moved by the simple view... or the feeling I get to see my favourite person again I feel like a puppy! Yesterday I got so moved by the first snow I cried and it was great! I love how deeply I feel everything. Until I doesn't. I can't stand when someone is angry with me and I'm hurt from the smallest things. And when I need to be strong emotianally, it is the biggest challenge for me and I get to be very depressed from it. It's these moments I wish I wasn't HSP.

[@humanbeing7938]

I think I’m emtoinally sensative. I get really upset after an intense argument or see people I’m close too argue with each other. When I’m hanging out with new people I focus less on the experience, but mostly how I’m feeling and if I’m handling it well or not. And if someone says something about me (especially if its something I’m insecure or passionate about) it tends to stick around in my mind for a LONG time. Mabye I’m an HSP idk.

[@livywithane]

4:31 this is me now. I don’t respond well with a harsh tone of voice or a sarcastic attitude. It makes me defensive and tense. My “full of attitude” of a sister doesn’t understand and says shut up to me all the time. I really don’t want to respond with violence, but when stressed I might scream and hit to push her away. I’m the oldest and I admit I’m more immature than my gifted bully of a younger sister 😒😡😭 But it’s good to see i’m not a HSP… I am more sensitive and empathetic than others so they just wouldn’t understand

​@@positivity20the rate of people having both autism and ADHD is 50% to 70% so it is fairly easy to say it is hardwired . It also can not be rewired. These are life long conditions that change the functionality of the brain. They can be adapted to some degree but not rewired and not "cured."

this Video came at the right time. A few days ago i turned 17 and Birthdays always made me uncomfortable since it is closer to graduation, moving out, getting a job (and death). My 17th Birthday was the worst so far (not the day, my friends and family were so lovely and i was happy about them), the event made me realize that i am almost 18 and then graduation arrives and so on, which means changes. BIG BIG changes. While all of my friends are excited about it, i dont feel happy at all and avoid thinking about it. I never understood why i cannot be happy about it. When I watched this video, i realized its not fully up to me, but a trait of my high sensitivity. Thank you so much. It doesn't change the Situation, but the way i see the Situation and i wont blame me as much now for not feeling excited about growning up

People say I’m great at listening and sometimes I can describe exactly what they might be feeling or tell you what they want to hear. I'm always willing to help and I can't help but worry and be aware of other people's emotions, and this sometimes overwhelms me.

I remember when it took me nearly 6 months to get up the gall to say hi to a girl in my class… And her immediate response was “you’re stupid“. Took me two years to try again after that. Not with her, I never tried again with her, I mean to try to approach a girl again. Thankfully, it was grade school, so I had a little time to work with. Joining the military helped me find the “off” switch on my own emotions, which can come with plenty of back draws, but it’s actually pretty useful for someone whose sensitivity can be set to “unbearably high“ permanently.

[@Chahlie]

Oh God, I had to go into the mall to pick up my repaired watch...there were people protesting in the intersection, shouting and so on. It really threw me. At my last job a perpetually angry co-worker played really offensive rap music at full volume- after 5 hours of this during which time 2 people got into a screaming match, I was left shaking and crying in the corner. I cannot be anywhere near conflict or anger. I wish I could find a job where kindness and compassion are assets, not things to destroy.

Seeing this actually made me think I might be a highly sensitive person. Just as an example recently, I was in a musical, and I was supposed to wear black tights, couldn’t find them and just had to wear jeans. I didn’t think it was a big deal, but I started crying and I thought the director would be mad at me, also earlier that day I missed a whole song I was supposed to be in, cause I didn’t get on the other side of the stage in time (cried bout that too-) but I am an artist, I do set-design for that musical. But to others telling themselves that they might be a “crybaby” or “stupid” for crying, that’s not true. Crying is normal and healthy for everyone.

I can relate with number 8 and 13, mostly because of my own family. I often get misunderstood by them saying that l am "too sensitive" or " I like to talk back and argue" and the worst one l heard, " stop being so weird" after a argument happens. Even when l am trying to explain myself about what happened after clear things up, they mostly say " You always like to be right" or " you always follow your friends advice" the moment l say something, which results in me not talking to them at all, even about important stuff like driving. This has resulted in me locking in my room for hours on end, trying to forget and move on. I understand that l am a highly sensitive person and can relate to most of these,but number 8 and 13 speaks volumes to me. I am moving in my own path, away from my parents. As much they love me, They SUCK at understanding that parents can ALSO be wrong about something too.

I go HEAVY on the loud sounds one: and here's a story to prove it. So my classmates tend to get especially loud, like, all the time. It doesn't help that there's six kids that are extremely loud. I've asked them multiple times to quiet down or to just be calmer, but they just don't do it. I've asked my teacher to talk to them, and she has, but they still continue to scream and shout and chant during class. One day, it got too much for me. We were presenting our projects and our classmates got to vote on who goes first. Everyone started chanting for someone, who's name I won't mention due to privacy issues. I would've been fine with it, until they started yelling it out. Louder, and louder, and louder. I instantly got overwhelmed, and covered up my ears as tears started to come in. Luckily one of my table-mates noticed and told everyone to quiet down because I'm having a panic attack. I was sent to the nurse soon after, and when I came back everyone was quiet for the rest of the day. So yea, not really a choice to be like this (;∀;)

[@Phoxcario]

Hello, Psych2go! Your videos are always fun to watch I like how you are able to break down subjects that both readily available and easy to understand. 1) I do feel groggy when I don't get enough sleep. Maybe a tiny bit cranky. 2) For me, it depends on the "loud noise." If someone is blasting music for the sake of being loud, then I can't stand it. 3) I don't remember if anyone ever told me they appreciated me being empathetic. I have appreciated others' empathy. 4) Sometimes I do notice non verbal interactions, and overanalyze the situation. 5) I absolutely HATE horror movies that are overly gorey, even if I saw a behind the scenes before hand. 6) I was recently fired from a job I thought I loved! I had high hopes for it. Been unemployed for nearly 3 months. My parents keep nagging me about it even when I am job searching and preparing myself for interviews. I keep mentally beating myself up for what happened, and unable to land a job elsewhere. 7) changing routines is hard, I'll admit that. 8) My parents have raised their voice at me before. I HATED that! They even criticize me for "sleeping too much" or sleeping so late I don't wake up till noon. Then judge me that I'm not doing anything "productive." 9) I don't do well underpressure. My former boss would give me multiple tasks to complete, and I didn't know how to express that it was too much. 10) When it comes to work, I tend to go to coworkers asking them if they need help. Outside of that, I have had situations where a friend would ask for help, and I was already busy with something else. 11) I am my own worst critique. For me, I do this because it was brought on by my parents. They held high standards for me, so I then have to hold high standards. When I'm criticized in anyway shape or form, I shut down. Beat myself up for it. 12) I've recently told my parents I don't want them visiting for a whole year or more. However, I gave them a condition where they can come and help me without criticism or judging me. 13) I think I'm mostly misunderstood from my family members. I try everything I can to get my parents to understand me. It's unfortunate they never will truly understand me.

[@sofiapalombini9577]

I related to almoust everything in this video, except that I am extremely extroverted and a party animal. Being this sensitive used to really bother me, and it still does sometimes, but learning to love myself, accepting crunstuctive criticism, creating boundaries (even if that means letting someone down) and letting myself be as sad as I need to be is helping a lot. Being an HSP makes me a better friend, artist, and person. It is a good thing, and nowadays, I see how important people like me are to the world. Of course, there are days when I hate myself and feel guilt over meaningless things, but that's okay too, I try to think in my head: if a loved one was going through this, would I be this mean to them? Probably not :) Love yourself because, at the end of the day, you are going to have to be you for the rest of your life.

I am highly sensitive and resonate with a lot of the problems highly sensitive people face. Combined with growing up in an abusive environment, I believe is what led to me developing BPD (BPD is believed to come from mixing certain temperaments with an unfavourable environment).

Though dissociation lets me stay calm under pressure, I can “turn off” all my emotions and only do what is needed in a situation.
