I isolate therefore am I a wanderer?

[norral]

reading your description of yourself it sounds to me as though you might be an empath. you said often i feel as though im picking up
others thoughts and feelings. thats what we empaths do and at times
it can be quite disconcerting. how do you feel when you go to a
mall and walk in crowds . i'll bet you get tired no? all that energy there
and being sensitive to it and you'll be drained as you said.

Dear Norral,

Thanks so much for your post. Reading this thread I've realised I'm an empath, too. I have looked for information on this subject, and I'm astonished at the accuracy I've been described with. Now I can understand so many things in my life. I wish I had discovered this fact before, I could have avoided sooo many difficult situations (or at least understand them much better).

I'm still assimilating all this information and my recently discovered "condition". Certainly, the journey of self-knowledge never ends.

Thanks, brother, and thanks to truthseeker for opening this new thread.


Truthseeker, I had an awful adolescence myself at the same age of your son's. I think many of us have to make our own incursions in the dark side in order to eventually develop awareness and discernment before making our conscious Choice.

All my best wishes to you and your son.

Dear Lightseeker

im glad the post is helpful to you. it hit me like a ton of bricks also
when i realized i am an empath. then a lot of things that people would
say as i was growing up made sense such as "you're so sensitive".
there are a lot of empaths on this board and i believe we not only
just read the words but feel the energy of the writer. knowing this
about ourselves we realize there is nothing wrong with us but there is
definitely something right with us.

God bless
