Sensitivity

Not really associated with the ocd like I have always been sensitive as a kid but sensitivity like if you call my shirt ugly or said something offensive I would cry and I never had autism or like anything no offense to anyone I’m saying I was just sensitive because I was and it could be from growing up my house wasn’t to big as now but was a big house and then now anything to do with my ocd I get triggered as well but like yeah but can anyone relate everyone is like I’m an empath so my emotions are drained and I have always been a good person but the thing is I don’t even think I was such or anything as kid I was builled when I was a kid I went through normal stuff and big stuff and I’m still sensitive can anyone relate to being sensitive not only the empath like if you get what I mean

Always I’m not as sensitive as a kid like now if you said something I would not cry in front of you I know they are just saying whatever but when I’m at home if it’s my parents or brother who triggered me i had a phase where I suppressed my tears and even now I stopped but yeah

Like I stopped suppressing them and all but I feel only when I scream it out in anger I’m able to cry now even as a kid I could cry quietly and I still could but I need to let it out

I genuinely think sensitive people are more likely to have ocd. I’m really sensitive. Not as much as I used to be. I realized people don’t react the way I react to things. I take things really personal and even resent people for things they said carelessly. I understood the build up was causing me more harm and pain than good. I became less sensitive when I realised everyone is genuinely not perfect. You might think you’re good and would never do anything to hurt anyone because you think well before you speak but you really can’t be sure when you’ve hurt people and they didn’t hold it on you. I’m still very sensitive and it’s why I have ocd today butt I’m working towards emotional regulation because my nervous system might be feeling unsafe due to built up anger from childhood and how much I aim to protect myself.

@toyin Yeah me to I’m in 12 th grade and my sensitivity is not as bad like I don’t cry like I think ever since I learned we all have problems as well I realized we all have problems as well I think it’s when close people like my parents or my brother when they say something it hurts what’s funny is I’m actually have alot of aquibtces friends I did a big recital and I handled worse traumas but small things trigger me even toxic friends don’t trigger me

I’m very mature with people I don’t care about my best friends luckily like I’m good with me but what’s funny is I’m like sensitive I had a happy childhood as well it definitely comes from my mom and being rich ioulf but I mean I went through normal stuff as well

What’s funny is my. aquatics was telling me I am very patient I even have this image of being mature but it matters who I am with abously with my family I am more sensitive because I care about them so my sensitivity is stronger with them

I feel I definitely am not as sensitive as I used to be where I would cry even for a small thing but it’s still there I want to learn how to manage but without suppression like I did where I thought being sensitive was bad but one time I had a friend that was to sensitive so I’m definitely not to sensitive but it’s still there and I still have it
