I read this today and oh wow, it is so me. Apart from when I read about ADHD I never read anything so accurate How do my fellow ADDErs find this , particularly Petra, Jan Contrary Mary, others I'm sure that I just haven't communicated. With so much? www.themindunleashed.org/2013/10/30-traits-of-empath.html x

Wow, I relate to this!
The days of the week thing is interesting - I've rarely done the 9-5 thing, but always have an uplifted mood on a Friday, and hate Sundays, but for no particular reason!
Very interesting xx

Hi Ditzynerd Yes, I get the Friday feeling even though I haven't had a finish on Friday job, so the last place in had proper weekends was at school, which was eek 20 yrs ago. Crickey am I that old? I also used to go out clubbing and take things, I've stopped now but I can still feel high in a room of high people or drunk in a room of drunks - well sometimes with the drink - Mostly I feel malingering stress ...perhaps the default setting in mainland UK, I usually feel lighter when I leave the UK

I feel overwhelmed by crowds and being in a busy city. I hate weekend shopping! My stress goes away when I'm near water, especially the sea, somewhere without many people.

Me too I want to live by the sea I live very near a river which is nice tho. I can't cope with cities and crowds at all, one reason I thought I had aspergers, which I now don't think I do, partly thanks to you ditzy, writing about social anxiety and avoidance thingmagig Thanks!

I read this today and oh wow, it is so me. Apart from when I read about ADHD I never read anything so accurate me too. how truly weird. (tho how do you read these long articles?! i was seriously flagging even once i worked out to skip to the bottom and skim the 30 points, which for some reason i had thought were going to be 10 points. but mebbe it's because i'm seriously exhausted at the moment... ) i will try to re-read it slowly and respond a tad more fully than me too contrary m

Hi Mary, oh I don't read them in one go! I skim read and jump to conclusions, cut paste n post
Then go back and read it a couple more times, always uncovering a huge chunk I had missed
Just.bbeing impulsive I suppose! Having reread it I still agree it fits me though
Must intuite alot of it really just fill in the gaps with feelings?
Xx

Hya CB wow where do u find this stuff - interesting - can't do long post as still got no internet and on my phone ( the universe doesn't want me communicating at mo it seems ) - i really relate to most of this stuff - hard to rem all of it - nit the extra weight bit as was dead skinny most if my life - shopping centres are places i detest - missed the sea so much when first left wales - live next to the woods now. Am thinking may be part if reason that i had melt down after confrence as well - too much adhd excitement floating about - thoughts cant flow on this tiny bloody key board on phone will think on this - thanks - it cements a lot i had sussed about myself but often forget funny the day if the week thing - have always felt that and often wondered why i enjoy feel of certain days even though am not doing anything diff from another day - love sundays - and the easter thing - exactly me - fuckin hate mondays so much - even if not working xx

I would say that article is about me It is nice to be empath but sometimes it is a heavy burden.

So don't spend the time then. Nothing's compulsory. It was only a suggestion in case peeps were up for it.
Edit - deleted it. Can't be bothered!
Off to pick up the in-laws
