1. Some loud noises could mind me and my ears can hear literally everything around me
2. Yes I relate. If someone for example cries next to me I feel bad and sorry, If someone is angry, I feel nervous
3. I relate a lot. I'm over-analytical, observant and over-thinking. When someone says or makes something to me it will be stucked in my head for a long time and I hardly forget it
4. If I don't sleep enough can feel tired and nervous all day. Actually If I can't sleep is because I can't stop thinking to what happened to me that day or because I am anxious for something (like a school test)
5. Well. I never feel hangry
6. I can relate too. I'm very self-critical (and maybe strict to myself) and I feel pressed when I am observed or under evaluation. I feel that I'll do everything wrong, I am also very anxious and I am afraid that people can hate or judge me.
I feel embarrassed when someone found out someone a interest of mine and I always have doubts about myself (for example I sometimes feel that I'm not sensitive or idk I feel toxic etc)
7. Relatable. I usually say yes when I actually want to say no. I don't want to make upset people and I never say if something is wrong
Sorry I had to write this. -.

To make others out there who didn't have ALL of these, here's my example.
1. Noisy chaotic environments: I can stand them for short intervals okay, just need to have a exit strategy to stay sane and I use it MUCH earlier then peers. For example, wedding reception, I can NOT last more than about an hour and a half. But until then I can be just fine.
2. Absorb other people's emotions. Yes. But have trained myself out of this as much as it was possible to do.
3. Analytical of others. Y. E. S.
4. Don't do well without sleep. Y. E. S.
5. Hangry. Y. E. S. Would recommend a clean keto diet with lots of salad.
6. Dislike being under observation. Amazing how I have ended in a caring career that doesn't include constant observation.
7. Saying yes when I mean no. Although I enjoy making people happy as if I were doing it for myself, I wouldn't say that I can't say no.
So there is no PERFECT fit with these. Like you I am watching this for some tip to deal with a bad day. If you're not a perfect fit either out there, you're not alone then! Guess we'll both keep searching around and maybe, in the process, decompress. Hugs to you!

I remember all my life Ive been like this also it was worse cuz I had social anxiety and still do but this year (2021) I went through this emotional rollercoaster I became depressed and my mental health was bs and I got to a point where I felt empty and cant even tear up when Id force myself to cry and now idgaf abt anything it sounds cheesy but I really dont care abt anything but these days I could cry if I tried so thats good I used to hate myself for being sensitive and used to get made fun of at school bc of it I remember during the 4th grade Id cry everyday at school and at home like. howd I have the energy? But now Im glad I have tears Ive changed a lot this year tho now if you told my 12 year old self I hate you. I wish you died your a piece of shit I wanna kill you Id just look at you blanky and if you said the same to my 9-10 year old self Id be crying abt the fact that you approached me

How do I connect with an online support group with verbal interaction? Only 2 years ago, I somehow linked on and celebrated that there was a name for hsp that exactly described that I felt the lows lower and highs higher. lights and smells were important and never ask me to view torture scenes. And INDEED, im discerning and I'm emotional sponge. Lots more going on with me as a missionary over 20 years in Asia. absorbing hurts. and then absorbing death of adult son, cancer in daughter and unexpected fast death of my Sweetheart husband a few months ago. Question: how do I 'react/answer' kind people who want to help? I'm extrovert hsp just can't handle being in group gatherings nor deal with influx of emails and texts and expectations. LOOKING FOR SIMPLE SENTENCE ANSWERS. and pressing on to do self care. Yeah. too long and blabby.

hey! i have a question. if anyone can give their opinion id appreciate it: )
so, i know i was highly sensitive (hsp) when i was younger. i didnt show all the signs, but i was easily scared/disturbed/emotionally upset, i hated loud noises and itchy clothes, i hated being startled, i had a deep thought life and imagination, i sometimes had nightmares, i showed OCD type behaviors, and i got very frazzled in stressful situations, etc.
however, now as an older teen, i dont experience these things much anymore. im a little sensitive, but i dont think im highly sensitive anymore. is it possible to stop being an hsp? or is it always a permanent trait and have i just adapted to it?

I can be so observant that I've been asked if I was a cop a couple different times. I didn't realize that I was doing it. Hangry for sure, I always called hunger my attitude changer and I'm totally useless when I don't get at least 7 hours of sleep. When I watched I Love Lucy as a kid I would get so embarrassed when she did dumb things, as if I had done them. Chaos bothers me more now that I'm elderly then it did when I was younger but I've always been kind of adventurous and never had any trouble going places by myself but now I really wish I had a partner to share my time with (to a point) I do like my alone time

Great video! As a lifelong HSP, I would say that using the word over as in overcritical, overanalyze, etc. is not accurate for me. I definitely spend a lot of time thinking and analyzing, but I'm just trying to learn and piece all the pieces together. Sometimes that means that I need to go over the same things a lot until I understand them better, but that has served me well for many years. In the video, it seems to be inferring that this over doing things is negative, but it has definitely been one of the best things in my life that has taught me so much and helped me find peace and understanding.

I can't say yet that I'm an HSP, but I did relate to 3 of the 7:
#3. Being very overly observant and anticlinal of others (especially in changes in appearance)
#6. Being easily pressured when under observation (as a gamer I can easily relate to this)
#7. Saying yes when I mean no (I don't wanna count how many times I have had to make an excuse to get out of something that I didn't want to do but I said yes so I wouldn't be seen as a bad friend or make the friend think I don't like them anymore)
I wanna say I am an HSP but it's only 3-7 and I don't wanna go making assumptions I'll regret later

While I dont like big crowds of people in general (since its overstimulating, I just LOVE playing Dodge-ball and the sheer amount of things to process in a game of Dodge-ball is barely exhausting, but big crowds are. I love dodgeball because of the sheer amount of flying _balls_ and me matrix-dodging almost everything in my path. I said almost because I got ownd several times, since Im not perfect and nobody is either.

The overthinking part started once a someone critized me harsh and truelly cruel. They insulted me and I was so angry. This person is someone important that I see in day to day life. I never dealt with my anger and it festers. It never goes away. I started to realise that I was angry at myself to. Cause deep down I judged myself just as cruel and since then I've been expierencing self doubt.

This video just solved one of the biggest mysteries in my life. I have always been over-sensitive, hated big crowds because of all the noise, saying yes when I did not want to etc. Now i am sure i am an higly sensitive person and it lifts a lot of weight knowing that it is just not me being born wierd (in a bad way) or overreacting. Thank you so much and keep up the good work!

To me it feels, people in my surrounding have a lot new information to process if it comes to mental illness and mental health, so that they have no focus for Hsp.
It's like.

Brain chemistry. depression. what?
Never mind.

I think the worst part for me personally in being a HSP is that due to pervious bullying, I for whatever reason physically cannot cry when upset. Therefore, whenever something upsets me, I seem offended rather than upset, which makes people think Im hotheaded and mad at them when in reality thats not the case.

I recognize everything except the hangry part. As you could imagine being around overly loud people is painful, my social battery is drained very quickly. On the other hand people with calm gentle voices are absolutely soothing socially to be around. I know I'm weird but that's who I am.

I'm highly sensitive on some ways. A councillor i was seeing told me not to be so sensitive. That's almost like telling a person with diabetes to control their blood sugar problems without insulin. I can't help being this way. I've tried to toughen up but I can't my most basic nature.

Is their a correlation with HSP & autism? I don't mean to make HSP sound like a disorder or anything, because it's a personality trait. I do however, relate to all of these things greatly, & I'm just curious if theirs a connection between the two.

Yes HSPs do have a lot of strengths, and are capable of working on themselves and overcoming some of the assumptions that this video makes. HSPs can and do learn to set boundaries and take care of themselves and their needs.

As a child and teen, I had all of those things, especially the last one. I built resentment. I became depressed, apathetic, withdrawn and burned out. The requests became too much. I started to resent the kids I was nice to.

Not sure only HSP can relate to these.
I do not get hangry, and I don't say yes to things I don't want cause I almost can't lie. But the rest I relate to.

I notice introverted empaths and hsps are kind of a mirror as both are empathetic but also deep thinkers but are also fairly different creatures in a way.
