I discovered Alissa’s Instagram where she shares honestly & informatively about the experience & life of a highly sensitive person and how to thrive with this trait years ago. I was 15 or 16 at the time and through her wisdom, began to learn how to love and embrace my sensitive nature. I’m so grateful to still be connected with her and to have had this lovely chat. ✨
The theme we dove into/the “caller question”:
Everybody says I’m too dramatic. People like me if I’m quiet, not if I’m loud but also if I’m quiet everyone says I’m shy and then I’m just trapped within myself with no voice. I feel everything so deeply. I’m angry at the scary things that happen in the world. I’m confused on why people aren’t kind. And everyone around me seems to be desensitized to it? I feel just so different from everyone else and seem to notice and care about things that everyone else seems to ignore. I don’t fit in and I have so many feelings. I want to feel free like I did as a little kid and have fun and be playful but I can’t ignore my deep thoughts. I feel like I can’t handle things that everyone else seems to handle just fine. Is there something wrong with me?
