If you have lived long enough and experienced meeting many different people in your lives then you understand that everyone is beautifully made and with that everyone is different.

We all respond to different input and stimuli even if it's the same experience.  One of us can watch a movie and not be moved or scared by it, while others will be brought to tears.  There is no wrong or right reaction, it's who we are.

I'm a bit ruined having watched enough of Big Bang Theory and recalling Bernadette's comments as her industry is pharmaceutical, but she can be quoted in one of her episodes as saying to create a pharmaceutical, you have to create the disease. This is actually true in real life, so I read this article for the interest in sensitive people and not for the diagnosis that that Dr. Elaine Aron gave it.

It’s easy to focus on the negatives, but being a HSP can actually be a wonderful thing – and identifying whether or not the HSP label applies to you can make it easier to understand your behaviours and mak accommodations in the future

For the record, I disagree with labels too.  I think it's damaging to people to believe because they have a condition, that's who they are.  They might have a condition, but it's only part of them.

It's okay to be sensitive as compassion runs on the higher end of your emotions which is a good driver for better decision making in my opinion.  Sometimes it's hard being sensitive because that can take a toll too.  It's a fine balance.😇

Compassion is definitely a great quality to have! Though I agree, being super sensitive can get so taxing, everything bothers me sometimes XD 

It is hard when you feel the weight of emotion on every decision because it often doesn't just affect you, it affects other's too.  Try not to over think it. Let it go

Yeah, I get that, you're totally right! Also, I love that song, haven't heard it in awhile but it brings back so much nostalgia! 

....and could you ever belt this song out when you sang it too!
