nnamdiosu: I feel you well Brother. Can't count how many times things have worked out for me similarly. Any hsp that turns psychopathic will most likely be one who became frustrated. And that's my reason for starting this thread, so any hsp out there can know that he or she is in good company, not alone. And that he or she is perfectly normal, in fact gifted. 2 Likes |

As an hsp/introvert, I will no longer force myself to attend overstimulating social gatherings just to avoid making extroverts uncomfortable. I will not apologize for staying in, opting out, or preferring one-on-one conversations. I will not be shamed for being "different." I like who I am, which is why I enjoy my own company, and it's okay if I try to socialize in small groups for a few minutes but then need a break, it doesn't mean I need to "come out of my shell" or "live a little." Let's not push anyone to conform to social standards, but rather update social norms to include the people happily playing games in one room, others reading a book in another, turning on the closed captioning to be inclusive of everyone, and please.. ask before you hug anyone. Never assume everybody drinks as much as you do (or at all). This invitation to be considerate isn't complete (feel free to add your own as a comment), like some people are terrified of dogs and are not okay with yours being off-leash, while others would rather play with the pups than with humans. As a general rule, just ask. No matter what it is, just ask. Here's to a future without shaming or pressuring anyone, more understanding, and plenty of growth. 2 Likes

.... True! When an extrovert is around an introvert, e no dey blend well. It's discomfort to the extrovert. Imagine trying to create a lengthy conversation, and the other person is not talking much.... Just nods, chips in yeah! Really! Ok! Good! Now and then. The talking is coming from one side. Hmnnn.. it's discouraging to the person wanting to create a conversation. |

Re: Are You A Highly Sensitive Person(hsp) - Come In Here by Newborn27(f): 9:36am On May 06, 2023 |
My question is....why do others see HSP as being proud? They think you're forming to know too much. ...how have you guys being coping with such especially at work? |
Re: Are You A Highly Sensitive Person(hsp) - Come In Here by Awakened38: 8:32am On May 07, 2023 |
Newborn27: Well, HSPs know "too much" compared to non HSP's; it's a fact. Naturally people who know too much can't be unnoticed, because they are bound to sound the alarm when they sense danger coming, give advice even if unsolicited, share their knowledge, etc. All of these tend to sometimes awaken jealousy and envy in some people. One thing you must know is that, you're not responsible for what others think or feel of you. If you make it your responsibility, then you end up people pleasing all the time, and certainly this is why a lot of HSPs are miserable; because we worry so much what people think of us. We think we need to apologise for being intelligent, for being gifted, for being too incomprehensible for other people's ego. But you didn't create yourself, you're not responsible for being a HSP. All that you need to do is to get comfortable with yourself and your gift. Accept who you are, and recognise that whatever hate you're attracting is because you've got something in you that makes others feel insecure. Learn though to not force your viewpoint on others; as a matter of fact, let your wisdom become your priced asset. Learn to give your opinion only when asked and if you so choose. Enjoy your aloneness. Do not feel guilty for minding your business and keeping to yourself if you so feel. Wish you well 2 Likes 1 Share |

OP everything you Wrote up there Is True. But With Regards to the Fragile Part, You are right on that too. As for me, I used to be Fragile. To buttress my Epistle, I have this Babie Facial look which some people tend to tease me with like "Hey Babie Face"😂 But due to Some Unanticipated Circumstances which resulted to Bad Experience. I had to develop A Very Thick Skin. Although I still have my Good Heart Intact which nothing will ever Change. But my Antennas are always at Alert now most especially when I'm around Strangers. I will always keep being myself Regardless of Some Situations I have gone through In life. Since my Childhood days, I have always known who I am. I have always known there Is something special about me. I'm the Most Intelligent among my Family Members. How I wish I could go Into details but this will do lol. I keep learning so much about Life and Myself as I continue to grow. Knowing and discovering more about myself was the reason why I choose this Monicker Treassured. You've literally said everything about me In your Post except for the Fragile Part which I emphasized on earlier, Thanks to Evolution. Everyday I fall In Love with myself. Although I'm a Mild OCD & PTSD Patient. Neatness, Cleanliness, Orderliness, Quietness, Just to mention a few are some of my many Attributes. Some Ignoramus people see me as Weird but Who Cares. I'm Highly Sensitive. I'm me and I love Myself❤ 7 Likes |

Rach310: Lol I perfectly understand you because I have been there. The good thing about me Is I have Evolved. You need to Pick Up Some Books, Read About and Research on Human Nature like your life depends on It. Visit Different Places, Meet People and Experience Real Life Experiences. It took me Donkey Years too before I eventually discovered Human True Nature and Many classified Informations I have an Insight Into now. Some Human Beings aren't exactly what they Potray themselves to be. Some Humans are Predators. I wouldn't want to Dive Deep Into this Hole. It's what you must do by Yourself. It Is the reason whenever I look at Myself, I always say to Myself I'm A Treasure because I know I'm a An Altruist. And we all Know Altruistic Humans are Few In Numbers. The Picture below depict how some people would take Advantage of you when they notice you are too Nice and Fragile😂 5 Likes

Treassured: @Treassured, its a delight to have you share your story with this community of the gifted. I can assure your that every HSP here can comprehend and relate with that your long story that is too long to tell here lol . So we welcome you with open arms. As for the fragility, in fact you couldn't have been more correct. One of my goals here is to help HSP's do exactly what you're doing, which is toughen up. Every HSP has got to toughen up, otherwise we will remain miserable. The truth is that, HSP's are not Fragile in the sense of the word, it is just that others tend to see us so. What many don't realise is that, like someone did mention here in a post earlier, a HSP can be just as vicious if not more vicious than non HSP's when frustrated. But my goal here is to make sure that no HSP has to travel that path because of ignorance about what is supposedly a gift of nature. I agree with you, we must reject been exploited by others for our humane nature. 4 Likes |

Treassured: You're very correct when you said, it's a journey of self discovery; I speak from experience too. Its a long but rewarding journey. One possibility open to all HSP's, is the opportunity of getting to know the Divine, of spiritual awakening, and possibly, spiritual enlightenment. And no, I'm not talking about religion; I'm talking about real spirituality, where you're not taught by anyone to know God, where you're not shown God by anyone, but where you experience the Divine for yourself. It's a beautiful path; that's all I can say. I'm grateful everyday for being HSP, even as I struggle with the challenges therein 4 Likes |

henrimoto:Extroverts loves introverts a lot cos they don't interrupt them when they talk unlike fellow extroverts. They monopolise the conversation. Give it to them. They won't even notice you don't talk. Introverts will prompt you to talk more. They really love it. Anybody worried that introverts don't respond to their conversation isn't up to 50% extrovert. |

Treassured: Lol 😂. Travelling around the world is it for me too. Just not for material pursuit I mean, but for the adventure. There's no greater fun for me than that. I think it's same for most HSPs. 1 Like |
