Does anyone feel they have higher than ussal sense of empathic ability. if why do you belive you do.

For me I seem to have an acute sense of how people are feeling and at times I seem absorb what they are feeling.

This maybe silly but my girl friend and many others over the years have comment that I am psychic. First, I do not believe I am a psychic. But i do believe there may be something to this because i have had it told to me so often.

just curious. that should be my screen name lately.

It sounds like to me you just want some answers possibly because you are looking into yourself and it is nice and reasurring to hear what others think too. I have good listening abilities and my face is the one that i find others look at when someone is talking they look at me because i am interested in what someone has to say.

Not psychic. but much more empathy. I mean I can't even stand seeing trailer trash mom yelling at her 7 kids in Walmart. I hate seeing kids cry, I hate seeing them resist going into daycare, I can NOT stand to see them get spanked or pulled along....god it just makes ME wanna cry and go take them. With adults I am more patient and listen better when there is an issue, I can feel their pain and get an insight into it. One thing I can't tolerate is ignorance...lol...I was always like that. But yea...that empathy thing is through the roof now. I think we have gained some "positves" from our abuse, although you younger people won't believe that right now.

I have noticed I have a good intuition.

I just get a good sense/feeling about things, and just seem to kinda 'know' things or what might happen.

My intuition has grown stronger as I have grown older and wiser...and has also developed and helped a lot in my Nursing Career. I could sense things even when everything seemed A-OK right now.

i like you have empathy skills but not quite the same i thin haha. I cant feel my emotions but i can feel others aound me i no when they are happy or sad with out them telling me. they can smile but i no when they are sad and just faking it. I mean i smile and and cry to put on a show so i seem some what "normal" but really i donno how i feel i just go along with what i no is sad i cry to and so on. but i can feel others emotions its odd

Personally I think empathy comes when we ourselves begin to fully understand the events that took place in our lives and also from the experiences, education and skills we have gained over the years.

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
