I'm really tired so I may not make any sense of what I'm trying to say. This topic has to do with every relationship I have with people. Like or dislike it doesn't matter. I have this overwhelming empathy for others. I emulate other people's feelings/ emotions like they are my own. It doesn't matter who it is their aura has such an effect on me that I get overwhelmed with that feeling. Their sadness leads to my depression, their happiness leads to my giddiness. If someone is even sick I literally start feeling sick, having the same symptoms as they describe.
Am I the only one who suffers from this I'd say EXTREME empathy for others or is it normal?
Do I just need to close my eyes and go to sleep because I'm rambling?
Lol!!!
What ever the case I'm finally going to get some sleep good night.

If you think you have codependent tendencies, a great book to read is "Codependent No More".
Being there for everyone all of the time is actually bad for you. You have to put yourself first before anyone else. Only then can you be there for others.
