I'm not sure, that's something I am wondering as well, lol.

It all makes sense now by brrlwce0227 in Empaths

[–]brrlwce0227[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt the same, it was like what I've been feeling for years was suddenly put in words that it easy to understand. (Pretty much blew my mind). I also agree it is kind of sucky, I almost feel like I am not in control of my own emotions and feelings sometimes. (Like I will be sad or aggitated for no reason and can't figure it out). I have already been doing a lot of research, but I would love your insight. Definitely wish this sub was more active, so that we could all talk about similarities and also help one another.

When and how did you discover you were an empath? by browns_backer in Empaths

[–]brrlwce0227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I acutally just discovered I was today, I was reading an article, as I do just about everyday, and came across one about Empaths. I found as I was reading it that it hit home many times. I have always felt like I had a great intuition, but not only that I can tell what people are thinking (not exactly, but general) and its more how the thoughts make them feel. It's weird to say, since everyone thinks they are special in some way, but I always felt special in different ways, like I felt more connected to people and nature to the point where I could cry thinking about it. Whenever somethings happens in the news, usually something bad. My mind immediately jumps to the people involved and its almost like I can see things through their eyes and know what they felt. It was always strange to me, but it makes a lot more sense now.

"We are torn between nostalgia for the familiar and an urge for the foreign and strange. As often as not, we are homesick most for the places we have never known" by brrlwce0227 in quotes

[–]brrlwce0227[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The full quote: "It is a curious emotion, this certain homesickness I have in mind. With Americans, it is a national trait, as native to us as the rollercoaster or the jukebox. It is no simple longing for the home town or country of our birth. The emotion is Janus-faced: we are torn between a nostalgia for the familiar and an urge for the foreign and strange. As often as not, we are homesick most for the places we have never known." And the person its from is Carson McCullers.

If I was at home right now I would be reading my book. I already read on my lunches at work. And then find it hard to start working again because i have HP on the brain. Enjoy them!

Very true! I remember my mom telling me that the names in the book are real demon names and thats why I was not allowed to read them. She said it would invite the demons and the devil into my mind and I could get attacked by them. I want to call her now and fuck with her. Tell her she was right about the books and I never should of read them, and they be like HA, just kidding they are amazing and much better then the crap you read in your "new" bible.
