I am an Empath
I know it sounds like a Great thing to be. As a Rule most people, with the exception of Sociopaths can show Empathy to people...Ie having Compassion...
Being an Empath is something all together different.
Imagine if you will you walk into a room and feel phyiscally everyones emotions as well as there Physical Pain...Now do that 24/7 365 and have to teach yourself to block unwanted emotions...
That is a True Empath
Still sounds easy?
Well then lets throw your life into it...
For me its Working at a Hospital and Working in a Retail Store...where there are thousands of people I have to deal with....
Now you might come close to understanding why I call it a Curse....

I wouldnt call it a curse I know where your coming from because I'm an empath as well and when you feel everyone's emotions its like you absorb their pain and feeling and then their fine you have to learn to block their feelings while still helping them as well as protecting yourself

I cannot say I know how you feel.because only you.can understad it besides another empath, but im sure it is very hard to deal with on a daily basis
Being a sensitive is bad enough

What if someone is Empathic but they just don't give a fuck about people they don't love or care about? Do they still get all those feelings? Like, do you have to know the person to feel them or is it just with anyone?

I understand how that feels. Believe me! LOL
I am also Empathic. It's a lot of compacted terrible emotions that you do not want to feel.. You end up caring way too much more than you really should be and it ends up creating problems. I totally get it. Anytime you need to talk, you know where to find me!! ;)
