What is an Empath?
Put simply, an Empath is a person who absorbs other people’s emotions and experiences these emotions as if they were their own.
Empathic people are extremely sensitive to the emotional energy of those around them and as a result, tend to commonly experience energetic overload in the form of fatigue, anxiety, and depression.
However, despite the tendency to “soak up” the energy of other beings, Empaths are highly compassionate, loving, intuitive, and insightful people.

Love what I have read so far everything in me yes yes yes they get what life seems like to me I offer blessings to you both and intend to keep up on the site
I’ve always wondered what was wrong with me. I would tell people I have this gift that I can feel others physical and mental pain. Even just seeing someone jump down off something my knees will feel a painful feeling absorbing the landing. I’ve always hated this gift. I’ve struggled my whole life by self medicating trying to numb everything. Being alone and medicated was the only escape I could find to avoid this traumatic sensitive to everything. So very sensitive I swear I can feel a speck of dust land on my skin. I developed psoriatic arthritis. I’ve been in numerous drug treatment programs. I can’t believe I’m now 46 finding out that there are others, and a name for this. It’s driven me into such major depression and suicidal. I suffer major insomnia. Worrying about everything. I hope there is help for this horrible mental health disorder. I’ve been living for my kid but each day it’s getting more difficult to find the will for another day. Light, sounds , smells can be uncomfortable especially light. I used to be told by ex that I live in a cave. All the counselors I had. Not one of them ever mentioned this disorder to me. Guess just figured I was an addict. What is the cure???
I feel exactly the same and I’m clean now 2 years.
I have had this ability all my life but for a long time I thought everyone felt this stuff, then I thought something was wrong with me because I have had depression in the past but a few years ago I finally went through my spiritual Awakening and I finally know what I am and what these abilities are and how they work its been better except it is alot. I’ve had to learn how to ground an protect my energies more then what I did back then but all in all its a blessing, many blessing’s
I am an empath and I get stomach aches almost everyday along with migraines…
