I have severe social anxiety, ADD. And I get easily overstimulated.
Do these sound like characteristics of the HIGHLY SENSITIVE PERSON?:
I have acute hearing, I get startled VERY easily over the littlest sounds, even when I am anticipating them. and I think I am sensitive to light(i wear glasses) I am a very picky eater, and dont eat much I like odd foods. I think this is because I may be a supertaster? I think I am sensitive to pain. When I have a hot beverage, it takes forever for it to be cool enough to drink, while other people easily drink hot things. I cry very easily, I have very thin skin, im almost always anxious. My heart is always racing along with my thoughts.
I laugh easily, my face gets red easily from emotions. I don’t ever have enough energy, i fatigue easily. I absorb Other peoples emotions all too easily. I’m paranoid. I get distracted easily. I hate my voice. I cant concentrate that well. I have very messy writing no matter how hard I try.
I have so many problems. I suck at sports. Im awkward
I don’t even know If this is ADD or something else?

Being HSP is a gift actually. Seems like a nuisance I know. I’m very sensitive. You’ll create problems for yourself if you judge it. Just accept it or let it be what it is. You don’t even need to label it. There’s lots of sensitive people in the world. The trick is how to guage your radar as to what is your stuff and others emotions.
You can intend to only pick up the good positive stuff from people if you choose, but it depends on how you tune your antenna. Good luck!
Hey idunno,
Take a look at Aspergers syndrome…sounds classic….has to do with an overactive amygdala.
Namaste
