I dont just notice others feelings its more like I can feel their emotions. When my husband is anxious or being a jerk I can feel it, When my kids are happy or very sad I can feel it. It really stinks and can change my hold day. Its getting too me. I dont understand why I am like this.My husband gets it and is pretty good with me. Me how ever find it exhausting and dont understand it.

That could be more paranormal then hsp, I think. Happens to many couples when you can pick up the energy of your spouse, or your kids.

Scientists have recently discovered that our brain waves can be measured outside of us as well as inside us. The example the doctor gave was with animals. He said a gazelle will never walk up to a lion and ask, "are you my friend?" That's because, he can pick up the energy of a lion that's two miles away which will tell him the lion's intentions so he knows better then to go near.

We all think we have private thoughts but now they are saying that's not true because we all share the same mind. I remember when I was married, my wife seemed to know when my thoughts were where they shouldn't be and she would call me out on that. It taught me to have pure thoughts when she was around.... :)

Try not to let it bother you.

Thanks for the encouraging words Bob. Its more with those close to me. Sometimes its with strangers and when it is I tend to help if I can. If I cant it bothers me. Sometimes I just wish I had thicker skin.

It will bother you less and less over time. Since this is an older post , I am curious if it still bothers you when you are inside the mind of another?

    So mad at Xfinity!  They're trying to charge me $115 per month for the same service I had been paying $50 the last four years. I took the equipment to UPS for shipping and cancelled my subscription today!  Next door was a cookie shop called Crumbl. I had heard of it before but never went in until today. I don't need one more sugar fix, but maybe it will help with my sad) grieving heart....$15...
