Is Being An Empath A Personality Disorder?

[@Thinkaptech]

Being an Empath is ridiculously overwhelming, especially if you’re unaware of it.

[@jdcoyote9331]

I just recently found about this empath thing. Now I understand why I have always been treated as a weird guy. I thought everyone felt a deep pain all the way to the bone at the sight of someone getting hurt. I mean real, physical pain. O well. I'm weird.

Empathy makes it possible to TRULY love someone and not criticize their character.

[@asktheetruscans9857]

I can love someone despite their bad character, but I also have no problem reproaching them as an act of love, because I care about their character. I would feel anguish if I caused someone to feel bad about themselves. That's no one's right to do. Is that what you mean?

[@AlailaLawrencelove]

I can be in a relationship with someone with a different personality than mines and not be bothered by their lifestyles because I'm aware they are simply doing what's in their nature and know nothing they do is meant to be taken personal. Instead of judging them i prefer to show compassion because their behaviors are just destroying them slowly

[@shellyj7536]

As a kid my mom could never understand why I never wanted to play with other kids & preferred to be on my own, I could pick up the vibes of other ppl & I was badly bullied. Now as an adult I actually enjoy being an empath, I never feel lonely which is an advantage too

Above the common abilities: Have Antennas to detect internal things in others, have a truth sensor as seventh sense (6th is intuition).

[@penelopelambson9128]

I’m in my 60’s and finally understanding myself. Growing up in the 50’s during the “personality” era when extroversion was worshiped, and introversion/ sensitivity was ridiculed and almost feared as a sure sign a child was doomed to failure in life, my empathic traits, were not valued or understood. They were seen as a liability. 15 years ago I found Elaine Aron’s wonderful book on highly sensitive people that turned my world around. Now with the emergence of information on empaths, I am starting to see real value in what have always been considered my “weaknesses”. Truly a very liberating awareness. I especially like this video as it answers several important questions for me. My puzzle pieces are slowly starting to come together. Thank you!!

[@kerra3699]

I am about the same age. Grew up in the same way, too sensitive needing better self control. It was a difficult time.

[@LisaLisa-dd1nf]

Empaths are born this way. We don’t decide to develop it. As we age, our abilities strengthen. We want to help others. We want to heal others. It’s not just emotions we pick up, I literally pick up people’s physical ‘traits.’ I have medical issues that weren’t mine. I picked them up unknowingly trying to heal someone else. Luckily it’s typically from loved ones and people I get close to. Many of us keep a small circle of friends. You can’t lie to an Empath, we are human lie detectors. Many of us, (myself included) are highly Intuitive, can see spirits, can communicate with those who have crossed over, can communicate with animals. We are loving beings. Sadly, we tend to attract Narcissists. They know we will do all that we can to help them. (They want someone they can control). We live and learn every day of our lives. A person can develop empathy, however Empaths are BORN Empaths. I believe we are older souls. I could go on and on but there are plenty of KZbin videos you can watch and books on Empaths as well. Wishing everyone peace and blessings.

[@jherrybarrion701]

I'm 20 and I just found out that I'm empath last month. Finding this personality identity that I have, it turns out to answer my questions with my way of thinking... Like I feel really different, that no one understands me and also how I perceived the world should be and why we should help every people that we go across. I also think that with all the thoughts that I have, we, empaths can change the world.... Thank you!! This video is great!

I am glad to find this video, it is helpful. I feel energy of a room immediately at the entrance and my face changes to hide my awareness of the energy in the room so people won’t notice or get confused, especially if the energy is negative I quickly get into hiding my emotions. But, the sad part is if the energy was regarding me and some people still try to express emotion through their physical body as I settle in and I show my emotions as if I have not noticed any thing at all, people will think I am dumb not understanding what was going on. As if now, this will change to benefit me and other at the same time, that I come to understand; I am an empath. It is a great gift from the most High to serve people. Thank you

[@christinalw19]

I’m a highly sensitive person, but toughened up due to being ignored, devalued, & without affection growing up. People laughed at me even when the teachers mispronounced my German last name. In 6th grade I started facing my bullies with my niceness and found them quite uninteresting. Poor things. Unfortunately, I am still overwhelmed by compound energies in a room. I have one of those piercing resting faces, terrifying, I’m sure. Yes, I can see into your psyche and it is not pretty. Lol. Those who know me love me. I still have my 3 best friends from high school, over 50 years ago. My daughter asked her Dad once “ how does Mom know certain things?” I could hear them from the next room. He said “ I don’t know, she just does.”

Frankly, a lot of these comments paint empathy as some sort of unnatural inherent force or ability that lets you connect more that what reality governs. I just wanna stop crying when people I hate cry, I want to be able to watch a damn video of someone eating spicy without my nose running, I want to be able to hear a story about a friend getting hurt without feeling empathetic pain run up my back.

[@3KeyElements]

DDJ that's an interesting line of thought. What have you noticed? Definitely, something I want to look more into.

[@DJLauraTouray]

Kirk Duncan - 3 Key Elements I have noticed that we (Aspies) tend to automatically be more open, gullible and trusting and taking people at face value. I also notice that we tend to push away our gut instincts (which are usually VERY Empathic and spot on!) and go on to convince ourselves that we can ‘fix people’ and please people (even if they are toxic) to make them like us (probably because we know we have never really fitted in or been truly accepted in the world.) It is actually quite heartbreaking to even write this I must say. I can not cope if I am around someone who has a problem with me when I know I have done nothing to that person. This seems to be attached to a permanent low self esteem and that feeling of never being good enough. But I believe that when I was a child, my parents honestly didn’t know how to deal with me! I also believe 100% they are also both ASD & don’t know it. It is a very deep rabbit hole. Let me know if you want to talk more about it with me. I sometimes believe that if I could empty the contents of my mind and make sense of it then I could change the world! I know so much depth about things but can’t always explain it well. I definitely feel that I have a lot to offer to people doing research. FYI - I was only diagnosed last August with ADHD & last September with ASD x

One of my bosses is a horrible, egotistical, narcissist and he has filled the shop with these screwed-up young people. He likes them young and inexperienced so that he can manipulate them. He has turned them into his winged monkeys. He dislikes me because he can't dominate and control me. He's tried to gaslight me and failed.

Empaths are born Empaths. It is not something we learned. That’s not to say you can’t strengthen your own abilities. Everyone has intuition, you can choose to develop yours. You can do your best to understand people’s emotions. However, Empaths FEEL others emotions as if they are our own. I also feel people physically. It’s certainly not all positive. It can be very challenging. Learning to Ground and protect ourselves daily is a necessity. So is Smudging (with White Sage) ourselves and environments daily.

Becouse for first time I did step out from back to front standing firm with truth when lie is spoken. Askinking direct questions and just burning lies with not even one word from my mouth. I have been lied to, betrayed, manipulated and Stepped on just becouse I would rather hurt my self then to let anyone good or bad to suffer. So I lived my life in pain until I lost my self. But finely I'm back and alive. Stronger and more brave then ever. So they know now my doors are open if you come with honesty and shut if you come with.lies and hidden aggenda. This is my life and I'm good enough for it. Otherwise I would not be alive. Dear empath it's time to respect what we are. And don't be afraid to shine with your light.

Since admitting to myself that I have abilities, I've learned to admit when someone's a spiritual vampire also. Lessons learned the hard way, of course.

Demons wanna convince everybody that people are inherently selfish and bad like they are.

Are you making more of this than what it is? If you want to connect better, be vulnerable. I think the family unit has something to do with it, if you were raised with love, acceptance and you saw this in your parents and how they treated others. I don't know many that went through school that didn't get bombed about something. I wore multicolored striped stockings and thought i was cool and kids laughed-pippi longstocking. Never wore them again. Today i can laugh about it. I enjoy your channel immensely-i think beause you're down to earth, have expierenced some of these things and bring a little humor to it. Thank you.

Thank you, excellent talk. It's inspiring and very accurate. Many blessings 🙏

I am an empath and have 2 of my 3 empaths children and 2 grandchildren ( from a non biological child) all very old souls, especially my granddon... while watching this video I linked a few more peices of the puzzle of society atm... there are a lot of empaths being born... and we need to make sure they are being raised in a supporting and encouraging way.... WE NEED the next generstion... the ones that are about 5 and younger... that generation is humanities hope....

[@aprilwilliamson1471]

It seems like I've always had someone to take care of in my life & now that my son has grown up & my mother has passed away...I don't have anyone to take care of & don't know what to do with myself... I've noticed that I won't do for myself as much as I'll do for others & I've been neglecting myself ..... any advice?

What’s the connection between being an empath and having ADHD? What is the difference between them?

[@3KeyElements]

That is a great question to research. What are the differences do you find? Who else wants to give their insight into the differences that they see?

adhd are watching the ants in the room. Nothingness thoughts. Empath: I can't register the teachings cause i feel..

[@christinemccoy4471]

@@3KeyElements I have found with me that it is the outside stimulation that induces a ADHD moment. Though I also have intense curiosity and therefore easily distracted. Once on focus look out, task is getting done. Discipline thyself.

Hello everyone, bright lights of this dsrk world!✨☯️ Am barely new here. I just found out that all those weird feelings is energy from someone else. No wonder I felt tired most of the time. I didn't even know why. Teacher I have a question regarding the presentation class. I live in Mexico cause I was deported from USA. Six years ago. And I wouldn't have the way to go with you. Also my problem right now is survival. Cause I have no money because of the narcissist that drain me out completely 😞 thanks to our creador now I'm healing. But still don't have all my energy that I had. Thats way is hard for me to work all day. Maybe u can help me a bit of info so I can start learning and searching more about me and all the great things are happening right now.

Is it possible to accumulate so much trauma that you block your abilities? I can tell a marked difference in myself after a few traumatic years and I dont know if I can ever get that back. I can feel it missing.

Do empath loose this ability some point in there from maybe health issues or medications?

Well, thank goodness. Just found this video because another presenter was trying to convince people that all empaths have BPD. 😂
