Highly Sensitive People HSP Community Group
The highly sensitive person (or HSP) is someone who cares deeply about everything ... feels emotions with great intensity ... is highly conscientious ... has a rich and complex inner life ... is very intuitive ... is often creative in a variety of ways... is easily overwhelmed and/or overstimulated. A HSP needs lots of quiet time,space, and freedom. If this sounds...
I have already been drained. So much going on, within me and outside of me. I signed my part of the divorce papers with a notary today. I met him at the mosque (safe place) to sign over car titles etc. The last steps. The man burst into tears. Not just tears running down his face, sobbing, messy tears.
I am just battered. I feel his confusion, that he loves and cannot. I feel my cousin who is strong, but insecure fighting her battles, so much strength and yet such uncertainty in herself. I feel my friend, who is losing so much and almost losing faith - feeling I'm his only thread to hang on to. I feel my mother, worried about me, her own loss of another son-in-law and worrying about my dad's health while ignoring her own health and that scares her more than anything. I feel my daughter, fearing imperfection, ignoring school work because she is overwhelmed it won't be good enough and missing home. I feel my son, too much a teen to admit he misses his sis and that he's left out without a dad and two overly sensitive women who share such a strong telepathic link.
I can usually filter and flow, but I can't. I'm done. I don't know how to manage my own emotions and be just "ok" with all of this beating at me every day. I feel like at any moment I could snap and maybe never get me back.

I certainly understand how you feel. Hang on & do whatever gives you comfort. Take extra good care of yourself until you start to feel stronger.
I am terrified that I may never get "me" back at present- the activity in my mind is similar to your challenges- I try to remember to:
Breath, believe, and most important (for me) retreat to what allows you to celebrate you- and "be"- just "be"
It does seem as if things are getting harder in life- but I still try to say- "this too shall pass"- and "life ebbs and flows"- I 'll take the flow from here on....
Hugs and Support
my goodness,,you do SO much for other people,,maybe you should give yourself "permission" to slow down and focus on you, cause after all if you crumble,,you can't help anybody. Allow yourself to nurture yourself, is there something just for you, that you can do to help you relax and reenergize? Like a day at the spa? Amovie you love? A massage? Take care of you,, you too precious to your people and family!!!!
HUGS AND SERENITY TO YOU!!!
For me, I have to keep reminding myself, the true inner self, is our foundation, our strength of our truth of what we are and who we are. We can not save the world. The only thing we can all do, is help others find that true inner self within, our true energy. It is when we get off of our foundation, get knocked off, I feel, when I start falling into that lower vibration, where none of us can afford to go. I certainly understand how we can get wrapped up in so much, with so many, because we care so much, wanting people, our loved ones to be happy too. Its easy to look more, feel more, from the physical aspects of everyones 'change', they are making for oneself. Many who has been here, like us, many times, trying to awake to ones true self and not be ran over by the worlds training programs in the skin, physical world of unhappiness they feed.
I feel what you are going through, many are feeling drained as well, including me. Wanting to help, wanting to rescue, when we can't save the world. We can only give a fishing pool to help them fish, and then support as much as we can, not leaving our own foundation of our true self.
I know right now, I have so much on my plate, in the physical world to fix, in my life, as well, those in my family. So, I certainly understand how you feel.
However, we must fill our self up, day and night. Empower our self. I let myself be drained, because I let my guard down....with the gifts I have, I cannot afford this. So, I know for me....I have to close my eyes, go within, find nature to flow food to me, to close the world for a bit, and refill back up, allowing that flow to be and not get damned up with physical waverings that make me lower those vibrations. Where I'm no help to anyone, especially to my self.
Find a spot, thats private, a good feeling spot. Close your eyes, go and 'feel' your self within. Put your palms of your hands together. Let the foundation pull you to it, relax....let go....trust.....feel the air on your face, feel the fire around you, feel the water cooling you, feel the earth around you, within you, relaxing your every moment. Till you are now....home. recharge....renew....feeling the energy.....that is within you. Breathe it outwardly to your body, keep your palms together. Feel your heart chakra, feel...completely.
and sleep, let your self go home, let your body catch up....
We are here to support each other, thankfully we all have gifts to help. We all feel this way....and we all need those who are right now walking with solidity....to do this....thank you to all....for walking together in strength, in a difficult physical world of challenges. However, I do believe, when we are solid on our foundation, everything is possible to move mountains, just we need to believe.
Don't you just wish, we could just make a city, have all those with gifts live all in one area? that was just a fleeting thought passing by...smiling.
I'm sorry for all that you are going through physically....as its been said...this too shall pass. I will send energies to all....
