I think this is the right forum... Sorry if it's not...

Oh and by the way, I'm Ziroshi, and this is my first post here ^_^

Well, I think I might be naturally empathetic... The reason I believe this, is because I never want to hurt anyone, on an emotional level anyway... And when some one has... I guess a strong emotion I can feel it...kind of... Especially fear, and saddness.

I'll give an example...

I was sitting in science class and all of a sudden there was this bright flash of light, and then I got the feeling... Like my heart was being ripped out... I was scarred, and I couldn't figure out why...

It turns out that some kid was playing with an electrical outlit.
There have been alot of times like this... And I have even almost been to the point of were I would take the blame just so that the person would feel better...

Any thoughts on this?

ok well i have been studying on empathy ok
and i have that ability too and intuition too not too brag or anything lol.
but i think u got the wrong idea sorta well here

Some of the abilities that are empathist staples are as follows, and in no particular order...

1) Heightened (stronger) emotions.
2) Comprehensive understanding over a broad scope of (if not ALL) emotions.
3) Capacity for want/need of self-sacrifice - giving, basically.
4) Excellent communicatory abilities.
5) "Dreaming."
6) Pre-cognition.
7) Emotion reception.

hmm let me see
1) well I definitley have stronger emotions, everything from saddness to anger... Though happiness evades me alot of the time...
2)Dont quite know about that...so I assume not...
3) like I said in my first post, if there emotions are strong enough, I feel the need to do whatever it takes to help them.
4) hmmm... I usually try and stay by my self, but I have been able to talk some pretty depressed people out of being depressed... Even when no one else could... So I guess yes.
5) when I dream, it is very vivid, even the most strange dreams, I'll wake up in the middle of the night, and take a few minuits figuring out weather or not it was real or not...
6)Hmm... Well I used to get Deja vu all the time... Not so much now...
7) and as in my post, if it's a strong emotion, or if I am super focoused I *think* I can feel others emotions...

So what do you think, some one who is empathetic, or one of the 100s of other kids who have tricked themselves into thinking their special >_<... Or inbetween?

In psychology an empath is someone who can relate and understand the emotions being exibited by a client, but does not exibit those emotions themself.

A psychic empath is a bit different. They can sense emotional energy that is not being displayed by normal means. For example: residue energy left in a room or on an object after an intense display of energy---

I came home from a weekend camping trip with my parents and went to enter my room. As soon as I opened my door I felt as if someone had just thrown me against a brick wall. The anger was intense. I realized that someone had been in my room while I was way. Nothing appeared to be out of place, but it just didn't feel right. So I confronted my sisters and their friends who had been home all weekend and learned that my one sister had been drinking while we were away and got into a really bad fight with someone. My other sister and the friends had to drag my sister to my bedroom so she could calm down.

Another example: Being able to identify the emotional level of someone who isn't displaying their true emotions
Deanna Troy on Star Trek: Next Generation would do this.

There are also the sympathetics. They are the emotional sponges. They not only feel the energy, they absorb it and will exibit these emotions as if it was theirs.
