Re: anyone else sensitive in other ways?

[Guest guest]

I can totally relate to what you said. I am also very sensitive to looks,

glances, how people say things in speech, email, texts, etc. It's really hard,

sometimes I have to just forget about it and not react, maybe retreat for a

moment and give myself a pep talk. It's helped me in the past to acknowledge my

own feelings but also to rationalize it by saying that some people just aren't

as sensitive as I am. Or maybe they experience and view e-mail or speech

differently, have different ways of expressing themselves, or " they just don't

think about things like that. " These are things that have helped me sometimes.

People have also told me I am too sensitive. Sensitivity is great, the world

needs sensitive people... but it can also be a huge burden on us!

> i have been told my whole life that i am too sensitive. i believe i really am

now, we all only know how we are so how would we know if we were more sensitive

than other's until or unless it dawns on us? how i hear someone say something,

by the way it is said, the way i read an e-mail, what is or isn't said, i was

told by a good friend (a pharmacist)just recently who i know very well that she

see's me this way too, she also has sound sensitivity and i just told her about

our site. the being overly sensitive as i've been called has gotten me into

trouble when someone says 'i didn't mean it that way' but i am 100% sure, you

did. any one else relate? or anything else? donnie
