The biggest mistake that HSP's make is thinking that their high sensitivity is a flaw or defect. You are not a walking basket case. Do you have any idea how strong you are? You've gotta be incredibly strong to have an amplified nervous system and survive in this world. You rock. ♥️

Things that affect me: 1. Rude or ignorant people 2. People afflicted with stupidness 3. Criticism 4. Confrontation/arguments 5. Physical touch/closeness makes me cringe or shrink, so I've never had a girlfriend. 6. Bright lights 7. I can sense people's negativity/miserableness. 8. I am anxious about using a phone and freak out if someone unknown calls me. And YES ! I DO take things personally and blame myself severely for failures.

I was diagnosed as bipolar in my early 20s, but I'm actually just a highly sensitive person. All of these descriptions apply to me. As far as the violence goes, I was raised on action movies and have no problem with violence, but excessive blood, gore, and suffering I can't take. If it starts going into torture, I'm out. Shows like Game of Thrones or movies like Saw are absolutely no-go. The biggest one for me is I cry a lot. Happy tears, sad tears, being moved to tears, it's a thing, and it can be really embarrassing when I look around and I'm the only one. Then family members tease me over it and the sensitivity to criticism kicks in. Getting over toxic shame and learning self-love has been a pretty good shield against the more difficult aspects of being a HSP.

I used to absolutely love scary and horror flicks. I'd watch all of them, but since about 5 years ago I have turned opposite. I can't stand them. At one point my anxiety got too overwhelming just watching a TV show that had a simple conflict as part of the story that resolves at the end of the hour. I can't even watch the news any more. It's unbearable

I will get into conflicts when I feel there is an injustice because I obsess over that. I hate fake people or having to be fake myself. I enjoy being around kids because they have easy emotions and accept my emotions. I am a librarian at schools. But I run for smoke breaks even if I dont need or enjoy it. I have zero control over it and I'm now realizing what this is.

I’ve never gelled well with my peers. Even as a small child I preferred to hang with the grandparents, great aunts and uncles. I avoid conflict like the plague. I also am very sensitive to noise, smells, and certain fabrics against my skin. The worst is wearing a bra!! Cannot wear that thing long at all!!!!

I was in the library studying with my friends and after the 4th or 5th time that I moved seats and tables my friend burst out laughing asking why I always do this. I said that I can't study with the certain combinations of lighting and noise, facing too many people, or seeing too many people walk by. I always thought everyone was like that. I always tried to figure out why I really really struggled to work in public places even when it is quite, but too many people are moving around near me or the lighting is off or something else. It's weird how small things like this start to make sense.

@a Don't give up. If you seem to be having a bad time getting friends, wait. You yourself is good enough, and nobody can take that away from you. Someone will like the way you are and take contact. Especially if you keep your authenticity. I know it might seem hard right now but I believe in you. I too have hsp, I think. I don't handle parties well with all it's noise and people getting drunk and making me feel uncomfortable, and I certainly don't enjoy when someone is acting in another way that's not right. But, that's okay. There will always be those who keep their masks in order to fit in, but you don't have to keep in contact with them. Being sensitive is hard in this world, and I can't even imagine how though you have it. Friends, even if it's one really good friend you can talk deeply with is such a blessing. I want everyone to have at least one friend they can connect with in that aspect, and I feel sorry for those who don't. I wholeheartedly want you the best. Having no friends must make you feel so hollow, so misunderstood and so damn sad. I can sometimes go in one of my sleep deprived (or that's what I think they are) fits, and feel every harsh comment and my evil head hanging around my shoulders saying I'm worthless, I'm nothing and I don't have any real friends left. When I feel these terrible thoughts and feelings spir up inside me; I can only begin to imagine how bad you must have it now. I'm not one who cries often, and I don't think I've been able to so for the last couple of years, but to you, if I could, I would.

Listening to this video. Just brought flashbacks of memory all the way from childhood. Like it hit me like I was always this person, the signs were always there and it only after 30 years did my family start to pick on it. I remember going to this movie with my mom and it affected me so much like I was crying and it affected me like I started thinking about why life was cruel and all that stuff. And she couldn't understand it. It's good to know that I am not crazy and that the reason for me feeling a certain way was not just me.

I started crying today. The other day my teacher said "Well because you're not paying attention" because I simply didn't understand something. Today, my mother told me to get something from my brother's room, and I knocked because the door was locked. She yelled "What are you doing? This is what Mr.Holiday was talking about! You don't listen!" So I started crying. She called me sensitive and tried to hug me, I didn't want to be near her. But being a child I "had" to go to her. It's been about 20 minutes and I'm still upset.

In my experience, not everyone is cut out for dealing with a highly sensitive person. I'm basing this on my own attempts at friendships etc. with insensitive or self-centred types... it's really hard. I can't speak for others, but as an HSP myself, criticism seems to be the least of my problems as long as it's constructive and not just a rude dig. Sensitivities that cause me to physically react (loud sounds, bright flashing lights, uncomfortable clothes, extreme heat, confrontation etc.) seem to be the most difficult for friends/family to empathize with. They just think I'm being 'difficult' again.

I sent this to my family and told them that; “This is why I disappear into my bedroom on occasion.” I’m 60 and hope that all like “us,” including the younger folks, hear this message... You’re just fine as you are. Also, lighting and onions hit me like a hammer! Love your “sessions.”

Thanks for this video, you've described me to a T. I've been ridiculed for being 'too sensitive' my whole life. I can't drink caffeine without bouncing off the walls and then sinking into depression afterwards. I try to avoid it completely. I tend to take everything personally...reading far too deep into things people do and say. Loud noises, bright lights, extreme heat/cold, heavy scents are all hard for me and if clothing is not soft, I don't wear it. Any clothing that feels confining makes me irritable....tight clothing, turtlenecks, tight sleeves, belts etc. The minute I get home from work, off come the fitted clothes and on go the soft, comfortable lounging clothes. Conflict is the worst for me so I hide away from it. This has cost me relationships. I even find that if I'm watching a movie where everyone is fighting, I have to turn it off as it will sink me into sadness and agitation. As for sleep, I need a full night or I get scatterbrained and depressed. If my train of thought is interrupted, I'll snap back and be agitated for a while. Loud crunching, rattling of shopping bags, fireworks, loud noises in general, jar me and agitate me. It's all these reactions that have had me judged as 'difficult' by family and friends my entire life. I've been diagnosed with anxiety and depression but I don't understand this as my symptoms usually follow one of the triggers I've mentioned above. Neither the depression or anxiety lasts long, they're more 'reactions' than anything else. On a positive side, my intuition is off the charts amazing. I get feelings about people and situations long before other people I know. Sometimes this is very overwhelming too though. My latest 'brick wall' that is causing me to freeze rather than proceed is a project where I have to finish and paint some baseboards in my house left incomplete by a contractor. These baseboards have been staring at me for months, supplies ready to go, but the minute I look at the job I feel overwhelmed, then make some excuse that I'll do it later rather than finish it up. These baseboards have become a taunting antagonist in my life lol.... It's ridiculous. :)

I'm definitely a HSP. Especially emotionally.I am extremely aware of my surroundings and am extremely self-aware of my thoughts and feelings. And really, to the point where it has its debilitating moments. It makes it somewhat difficult to remain emotionally stable because I have (had) a tendency to drown out the noise with things like weed, alcohol or other depressant distractions which always have cons in some way or another. I love caffeine but it gets harder and harder to stomach the older I get as its anxious effects are beginning to outweigh its pros. I'm extremely sensitive to drugs (prescription or otherwise). It even used to confuse me as a child why people didn't notice or were not as aware of certain things as I was. I also have this insane drive to face things that bother me - which as an HSP leads for an interesting life. For instance, I hate conflict...but I must know how I will handle it if it arises (i.e. what am I made of?) so I put myself in conflict (not seek it) to get better at it. Truth is I only get better at it in practice, not because it "feels" any better. I'm easily anxious about anything and everything but I insist on pushing through those feelings by challenging myself to pretty uncomfortable levels (sailing a boat alone/in a storm, traveling the world by myself, having a job to give presentations to hundreds of people at a time on complex topics, skydiving, talking to a girl out of my league, performing music, riding a motorbike through Vietnam haha). These aren't impulsive actions but anxiously crafted events if not obligations. My therapist is confused by it, and frankly, I am sometimes as well because it leads to some extremely tough days. But the pros have always outweighed the cons, even at the cons worst- because as being an HSP my "life highs" can be extremely rewarding, maybe moreso than most, despite the uphill struggle. And it's the struggle that makes the highs so special. I appreciate relationships more, I empathize more, simple things mean more to me, and when I win at something I feel extremely accomplished not just because I won, but because I can feel all the steps it took to get there. And as I cope with my HSP qualities and recognize what makes me happy and what doesn't, I find that depression (which used to be a common part of my life) is rare. Self-care is of the upmost importance to a person like me (or us), I believe. Anyways, I'm not sure why I'm writing this, I thought this video was interesting and made me reflect. Maybe someone can relate. Thanks for posting it!

I was thinking when you almost got to the end and you hadn’t mentioned “ hating injustice “ that was going to be the one you missed, then you described what that would be like for a sensitive person . I am a Christian and it hurts me so much how my church treat gay people, or anyone that had a bad past. I find myself standing up for these people, but feel that I mostly stand alone because the few that feels like e I do are afraid to say anything. The sensitivity to coffee was right on point as Well. Caring, work better alone,the noise level, love working with others, but work better alone. I thought that there was something wrong with me and wondered why God made me this way. I saw it as a course not a blessing because others would criticize me for being too sensitive. Thank you so much! I want to watch it again! Lol

This is so enlightening and encouraging to me!! I am so relieved to know I’m not alone in feeling a bunch of things so deeply. A lot of the scenarios strongly resonate with me. I wish I could enjoy wearing scarves and turtlenecks because they ARE warmer, but I can’t deal with the fabric around my neck; it just freaks me out, and I lose focus. I also can barely exercise in leggings as opposed to shorts or looser pants because my legs just feel trapped-not exactly hot, just trapped. Conflict doesn’t make me just uncomfortable; I often cry whenever I have conflict just because I really hate how it feels and how MUCH of it I feel. I can’t get into arguments with anybody because I’ll just cry, and even conflicts that are quite mild cause me anxiety. Saying no and disappointing people are great causes of stress and sleep deprivation. Thinking I have to turn down somebody causes so much inner conflict because I don’t want to make somebody feel the way I’ve felt in the past... I don’t want them to hurt like I ever have. When overwhelmed, I do need breaks too. I don’t know that urge is even a strong enough word; it’s more like a compulsion to just freeze everything going on and cry for a few minutes-and then I can get back to doing things. The strongest of these for me is being afraid to fail. Rock climbing is a significant part of my life-it’s my primary hobby and my career. My climbing performance feels like such a big part of my ego, and while I’d be happy to try hard in it and succeed, I’d much rather just not try in the first place because I don’t want to fail. I don’t want to see myself fail, and I sure don’t want others to see me fail. I’m so much better at giving up. I’d rather give up than give it all I’ve got and find that it wasn’t good enough. Anyway, thank you for this. I need it.

I’m 52 and still feel hurt if I argue with my sister. It means you love her and you don’t want to have pain. Try to stop in the middle of arguing , walk away, think , relax. Come back calm and talk out why or what you’re both arguing about, see if you can come to a fair solution. Not easy but it’s worth a try instead of heartache.

Great video...I’m in there on way over half! It’s good for fellow Sensitives to know there are more pluses than minuses and to be careful about being taken advantage of, or worse, manipulated. Blessings from an ISFJ, and an Analytical Amiable...so this all fits in too.

I have been binge-watching your videos while doing my nails. Yellow nail polish with a fine gold glitter for an accent nail! Nothing like a little sunshine to bring up my mood during this epidemic. Also, I’m a highly sensitive person. Thank you for sharing your videos! Your voice is so soothing and reassuring 🙏🏽😌

I have been in a verbally abusive relationship for 13 years and just woke up to this being a real thing. I learned I may be hsp after getting reoccuring asceptic meningitis and multiple hospitalizations. So I researched why, the docs had no answer. Trauma can be from prolonged subtle abuse. Cptsd mirrors much of this. Patricia Evans has great books to help. I believe HSP is deeply linked to abuse. My 2 cents. Thanks for listening.

Please reply to me. I think I may be HSP. Have recently left what I thought was abusive relationship- my husband is trying to get me to go back- he is saying that he is not abusive, but that I am HSP. Do you think that HSPs will " hear" abuse when its " not really there"?? Please help!!

That was me on 90% of those characteristics. Especially the bs meter. Thanks for the video, it helps to know that others deal with this too. I don't really know many people that relate to this and it leaves me feeling isolated much if the time

I’m going home tonight after work to apologize for not understanding her, and to share this information with her. I believe that this information will be a huge help to understanding who she is and to a brighter future for our relationship!

Tide commercials! I’ve cried at commercials at least once. My dad and I are both super sensitive and there was a military commercial on when we were watching the super bowl together, the commercial’s story was about a father and daughter, and I was very very moved and I heard my dad tear up a bit. Miss him. Loved your video and others like it, bringing awareness about such an important topic. I’m 31 and I think it was 5 ish years ago that I stumbled upon the term and what it means and it’s so fascinating and intriguing and important!

I related to everything here. I have an intensely hard time choosing perfume (I love it, it's a hobby). I love a wide variety of things (but spray less than most people) and like to keep variety around. I really love and appreciate tons of them and I'm super indecisive of what I'll wear each day

This is me 💯 percent. Thank you so much for this. I feel alone for the most of it. My older sister and I are the same. No one in our family understands. My husband has taken advantage of me because of this. So has my children. I have the biggest problems with boundaries. All in all, I have said YES to every example that you gave. It made me cry. Thank you so much. I will share this video with my sister Sherry and she will say the same things.
