Hi All
As an Empath I know what it is like to not know who or what you are and trying to find information on the subject...so here's a VERY useful web site that I found excellent...
The Empath 101
Hope you find it helpful!

lostsoul052204 Sinesthera I've decided to block that for a little while... Empathy is not fun Why is it not fun? well, every empath who do not enjoy their abilities have different reasons for why they don't... so i know why i don't enjoy it, but not why sinesthera doesn't. with me, it is an involintary thing, and mine tends to read all emotions around me in a 2 mile radius... and after a while, it AIN'T fun...

I'm not an empath, but I wouldn't like it at all. I really admire you guys for handling emotions the way you do. I hate it when people ask if I'm an empath. I wouldn't be able to handle it!!! I just have the God given gift of understanding and discernment. sweatdrop
Until about three months ago I had forgotten about empaths until I was walking down the street and a guy told me to stop being so bitchy because I was giving him head ache! sweatdrop

Being an empath has its good points and bad points. However, I do have to agree that losing control of your ability is not a good thing. It gives new meaning to the phrase 'emotional breakdown'. On the upside, I had to create new shields and grounding techniques that actually work for me. It took me about 6-7 months, but I'm getting better.

Wow! Thanks for posting this it gave me quite an insight to myself. Which I think is a good thing. I can say though that I don't dislike or not enjoy my abilities,some days theya re just difficult to handle.
I tend to get physically sick in large crowds. Usually a bad feeling of claustrophobia. Mine seems to be involuntary as well,but I can't be too sure about that some days.

A lot of interesting things are being said about Empathy...I've never heard tha people do not like it before, but it's good to hear people know their own limits. And that I'm not the only one, as I used to think.
I've always been Empathic, it just comes naturally to me; although I wasn't aware of my gift until some time ago. Empathy has it's pros and its cons, I suppose I just learned to deal with it all after a while. But even I still have my bad days. I do feel physically sickened when something is wrong or will go wrong; and I deal because I find it useful knowledge to me. Anyways, the pain of others these days can be very overwhelming, and there is not much joy to be felt anymore, but the joy is what makes it worthwhile...only you have to search harder for it Side note: I have also noticed that auras---which I can also sense and see--have become dull, and significantly smaller. I'm seeing mostly muddy reds and blues, with the occasional yellow of a small child...I think people are fading from having true and pure emotions to corrupt ones...
Where I live, in crowds there is kind of an empathic 'blaaaaaa'; I guess because people are so unmotivated, but there are those that have feelings mixed in. But feeling others' feelings brings me closer to them and helps me to give them feelings of comfort if they need them. The only advice I'm able to give is to keep your head on straight (keeping your cool around others is essential! I've screwed up many arguments because of other's anger mixed with mine!), and ground if you need to. Empathy is a tough, tough gift to deal with, but once you can, I believe you have acomplished something truly great.
Well...that's my sphiel, I hope it helped someone. You can PM me if you need help dealing with it or would like to share your experiences! I have many interesting ones myself~

I use empathy on a daily basis. I really like sensing what people feel. It tells me what to expect from day to day. A lot of times, it's very useful. One girl that I knew had a lot of emotions bottled up and I told her to let it out and I listened for 3 hours, but it made her feel better. If you like to help people, I think it's worth it. I've learned to cope with other's feelings and it isn't that bad anymore.

I'm an empath, sort of.
I can only feel the really strong emotions weather it be in the past or present. And they always stay with me just like Rouge.
One of my freinds has three demons residing in him, and whenever I am near him I get taken over by the feelings of the demons. Some of the feelings are really old, reocurring feelings.
I thought they were mine for the longest time. I was so conflicted and depresses, and suicidal. I have just figured out thet they weren't mine. But it still conflicts me. I know there not mine, but it feels like they are. And they never go away.
