New Girl Dark

I've been deeply sensitive since birth. I feel everything intensely, connect with others deeply, and experience the world differently. It's part of who I am.

Have you ever felt everything too deeply, as if the world touches your soul differently? I've been that way since birth. If you feel the same, you're not alone. You'll always find understanding and companionship here.

For some survivors, knowing someone is upset with you creates a state that’s closer to an emergency than mere discomfort. It might feel like nothing will be ok until this person is no longer angry with you.

Would you rather just swallow the pain and move on than admit you've been hurt? It can be hard to engage when emotions are complicated. Let's discuss.

As a highly sensitive person, hosting even the most beloved houseguests over the holidays can be stressful! I have to be super-diligent about finding quiet time for myself and keeping up with my spiritual practices no matter what. How about you? #highlysensitive #spirituality

Self portrait from a year ago. Lots of stuff happened since then but it still is one of my favourite pieces. I also think it describes my art (and me) pretty well.
I called it "Finally, Me"

@psicoscienze.bsky.social

Because Highly Sensitive doesn’t mean “strange/odd”, just different from others.
Respect who is struggling with something, also if that thing seems stupid for you. To someone else is enough to stay really bad.

I recently wrote a #selfcarebook for #youngteens on how to be a healthy #Empath #highlysensitive.
If an Empath does not realize they are an Empath, they soak in others' emotions & physical conditions like a sponge. The young Empath will not understand who they are or how they feel.
