are there any empaths here????

I know I’m an empathic person. My BF actually gotten scared because there was a day where emotions were flying, but I didn’t know they were happening like right around the corner, 30+ people around me, and there was a fight breaking out in side the house, where I couldn’t hear anything. I knew these emotions weren’t mine, because I had no reason to feel so much anger for no reason, but I couldn’t find where they were coming from so I ended up having a panic attack instead. My BF freaked seeing me like that so he’s always cautious about taking me to mass places. if another fight breaks out, and I just get another panic attack, he wouldn’t know what to do. I tried to explain to him, settle the emotions, it’ll settle my empathy skills, I don’t have the control I need, just intense receiving of emotions, sometimes 10x worse than what’s around me.

I too get the irritating premonitions in my dreams… I hate them because they are never good news. Hell, I told my counselor in junior high and high school about one particular dream I didn’t like… 4 years before it happened…. it was 9/11, I fucking hate them, because I have no control over what I see, or knowing when something like that will occur. I literally had to walk to my counselor’s office after what happened, and just screamed at them, “yeah, who’s fucking crazy now asshole!” Now I just keep that shit to myself because it’s not like anyone listens anyway.
