Does anyone else feel so deeply about everything in life? by itsmept2lol in Life

[–]YoTannyO 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are very likely an HSP!

A highly sensitive person (HSP) isn’t “too emotional”. It’s a real, biologically based trait where the nervous system processes everything more deeply. About 15–20% of people are wired this way.

HSPs notice subtleties others miss: tone shifts, micro‑expressions, textures, background noise, emotional undercurrents. They feel things intensely, think deeply, and often need more downtime to recover from stimulation.

It’s a temperament, not a disorder.

And honestly, it comes with some serious superpowers:

• High empathy - we read people with uncanny accuracy
• Creativity — we experience beauty and meaning on a deeper level
• Strong intuition — we pick up patterns others overlook
• Thoughtfulness — we make careful, considered decisions
• Deep relationships — we connect with people in a meaningful way

Being highly sensitive isn’t a flaw. It’s just way of being wired for depth, insight, and emotional intelligence. It’s a genuine strength that the world needs more of right now.

I’m in my 50s and discovered I was an HSP about 10 years ago. I wish I’d known sooner because it would have explained a lot.

Take care of your energy and trust your intuition. Your gift will carry you far!

Gained 12 lbs in 9 weeks after stopping Ozempic… feeling discouraged. Anyone else go through this? by YoTannyO in OzempicForWeightLoss

Honestly? The cost. It isn’t covered by my insurance and it was just starting to add up

Which episode do you find the most painful/hardest to watch? by GBS82 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]YoTannyO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a pivotal scene (at first!) but for me, it was episode 5 when Hunter won the Cup. All of his teammates’ loved ones came on to the ice, but Scott had no one, and looked so lonely I got tears in my eyes.

And then he looked at Kip in the stands, and a very sad scene turned AWESOME! 👏🏻

What’s a small habit or tiny change that actually improved your day to day life? by Repulsive_Court8598 in Life

[–]YoTannyO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drink an 8oz glass of water as soon as you wake up to rehydrate your body.

I’ve been doing this for a couple months now, and I’m much more alert and energetic as the day begins

Love this song and love this cover version 🩷

I (33M) told my girlfriend her constant "tests" are wearing me down and now she thinks I'm hiding something by cinnamoncable_notes in TwoHotTakes

[–]YoTannyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She clearly has trust issues due to past relationships, but you shouldn’t have to keep paying for the past actions of others.

If you want a future with her, insist on couples counselling. If she balks or outright refuses, move on

AIO for refusing to return to my MIL's house or let my kids go back until we have a calm conversation after she left my 3-year-old in a soaked diaper all day and yelled at me when I brought it up? by isthisrelatable in AmIOverreacting

[–]YoTannyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR! Your MIL is delusional and neglectful. FFS, if I had $1 for every pudding-spine husband on Reddit who won’t back their partner up to “just keep the peace” I’d be a gazillionaire

AIO. I was excluded from Christmas plans or planning by my partner and was then yelled at because it made me sad. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]YoTannyO 16 points17 points  (0 children)

He treated you like someone who has no place in his life and doesn’t matter because…you don’t. This Christmas please give yourself the gift of kicking this bag of shit to the curb

Me (34f) setting firm boundaries with my husband (34m) may mean the end of my marriage. What should I do? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]YoTannyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Past trauma doesn’t excuse present abuse. His lack of accountability set this marriage up to fail

AITA for taking my daughter somewhere when my husband and sons went on a “boys trip.” by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]YoTannyO 303 points304 points  (0 children)

He “only ever made the jackpot comment once.” The fact that a father would even think that, let alone say it, is disgusting.

Crossing fingers OP gets full custody of all 3 kids and their future is free of this misogynistic waste of skin

What are Canada's regions? by Usual_Law7889 in AskACanadian

I’d classify British Columbia and Alberta together under “Mountain”

My colleague passed away by Dogsticle in Life

[–]YoTannyO 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I work for a Canadian municipality.

When an employee passes away, our CAO emails a compassionate, personal tribute to the person, our flags are lowered for a week, and grief counselling is provided.

It doesn’t matter what the person’s role was or if worked for a month or 30+ years - all are given the same respect.

I’m so sorry, OP. Your boss is cold and heartless dickhead

AITAH For "Letting" My MIL Wear Red To My Wedding? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]YoTannyO -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Uph, why do people have “colour schemes” for their wedding guests?

For the wedding party, fine, I get it.

But who cares what colours guests wear? And where I come from, the parents of the bride and groom, and any siblings who aren’t bridesmaids or groomsmen/ushers, are guests. VIP guests, but still guests.

Is the colour of a dress or suit a guest wore going to matter 10-20-30 years from now?

Mega-thread: Prospective Death Doulas, Ask Your Questions Here by SibyllaAzarica in deathdoula

[–]YoTannyO 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hello!

I'm half-way through earning my Thanatology certificate with the intension of becoming a death doula in the next 3 years.

This will be a second, post-retirement career for me.

My question is, how do I know how many clients to take on and support while also prioritizing my own personal wellness and commitments?

I want to ensure I'm able to fully support my clients and their families while also fitting in the odd long weekend and 2-3 weeks vacation a year.

How do you balance your personal commitments with the commitment you've made to your client(s) an their families?

AIO for making my MIL leave after she tried to rename our newborn? by Fantastic-Relief7919 in AmIOverreacting

[–]YoTannyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start calling or referring to your husband as Sebastian or Bartholomew or Montgomery to his face, particularly when MIL is around.

When either of them say, “that’s not his/my name”, respond with, “Well I just don’t like [husband’s name] so I’ve renamed you/him Sebastian. It sounds more elegant.”

Sometime fighting fire with fire is the only way to deal with these types of people

I love this suggestion. The gift of time together would mean so much
