Re: Are You An Empath

I find this an interesting thread.


It shows me how some people are very open about certain things.
Like being an Empath.
Yet others aren't,they choose to,remain silent.
Some probably don't even know they are Empath.

See how different we all are?

Re: Are You An Empath

Hi Pauline, The list below is from a self assessment questionnaire :


Empath Self Assessment
1. Have I’ve been labeled as “overly sensitive,” shy, or introverted?
2. Do I frequently get overwhelmed or anxious?
3. Do arguments or yelling make me ill?
4. Do I often feel like I don’t fit in?
5. Am I drained by crowds and need alone time to revive myself?
6. Am I over stimulated by noise, odors, or non-stop talkers?
7. Do I have chemical sensitivities or can’t tolerate scratchy clothes?
8. Do I prefer taking my own car places so I can leave early if I need to?
9. Do I overeat to cope with stress?
10. Am I afraid of becoming suffocated by intimate relationships?
11. Do I startle easily?
12. Do I react strongly to caffeine or medications?
13. Do I have a low pain threshold?
14. Do I tend to socially isolate?
15. Do I absorb other people’s stress, emotions, or symptoms?
16. Am I overwhelmed by multitasking and prefer doing one thing at a time?
17. Do I replenish myself in nature?
18. Do I need a long time to recuperate after being with difficult people or energy vampires?
19. Do I feel better in small cities or the country than large cities?
20. Do I prefer one-to-one interactions or small groups rather than large gatherings?

I can relate to the majority. I do multitask though and people don't see me as introverted (I'm 50:50 on the introvert/extrovert scale). But I have been labelled as sensitive. I am the one screaming at scary films in the cinema when everyone else is quiet They don't mention body language, but I am a big on mirroring.

How do you score on these?

Re: Are You An Empath

Annie,I have done 4 tests,they all came out the same,..I am unable to open up about if I am one,or that I am not.

Now religion,that is a different matter.


My point is,..it's great that we are all different.

This has been a real eye opening thread for me.

Also,thank you for taking the time to post that,very kind of you.


Edit to add,I wouldn't dream of telling people what they should talk about/open up about,it personal to us all!

Mind you I have done in the past,another light bulb moment.

I learned the pink bubble technique from Shakti Gawain and found it helpful.
It’s breathing in from the base chakra and breathing out through the third eye using the colour pink.

Re: Are You An Empath

Interesting

I just asked my husband to answer these questions as if he were answering for me, he said yes to 15 out of 20. The other five he answered 'unsure' If I had answered the questions myself I would have answered yes to 17 of the questions.

I did the test answering for him, I said no 17, unsure about 3, he agreed in my no answers, I don't think my husband is an empath.
