Let's talk about being an empath. It leaves us being tired and empty and I think it is time we open the discussion to talk about it. Specifically Physical vs Emotional empaths #Empathy Listen to the Happy Times: linktr.ee/theh...
Thank you for making videos. I am an emotional and a physical empath, as I can feel peoples pain. Actually feel their pain. If I hear of someone or see someone that is hurting, whether it is emotional or physical I feel it. It can be Debilitating at times because until I learned that I was a sensitive person, which when I was growing up was construed as a weak thing, I did not understand what was going on. So now I am trying to learn to stay on attached emotionally the best I can when I am around others. It usually does not work.
Definitely an emotional empath. I have a personality disorder that amplifies it, as well as depression and anxiety, the whole 9 yards haha. It's definitely an eye opener when you're feeling all these things, going through all these things and all the sudden you learn why. You learn "hey you're an empath" "hey you have this personality disorder" and you're like wow, now I know why I've done this this and that, why I feel this or that way all the time, and it's so eye opening and so cool. Love the podcast Joey!
Emotional empath here! Growing up, it was difficult to be around people who were hurting or sick (physically or emotionally). even if one of my siblings was sick or going through something difficult, the pain of feeling them in discomfort made me wish to be in there shoes, rather than watch and feel them go through it. I also relate to the girl at the end from TikTok who shut off... I did that in a couple of ways for years because the pain, the emotion, the draining feeling I was left with sometimes would be too difficult. Like just existing in the world my energy was being pulled to other people rather than myself. However, recently I've found myself opening up again; this time with curiosity and love. Super interesting topic Joey, I would love to hear more about it :)
This was so eye opening. There's not a day when I don't utter the word empathy in atleast one conversation and to find out why I did that! Freaking amazing. By the way I'm definitely an emotional empathy. And am really intrigued to read the book now. Thank you Joey. Lots of love and blessings.
Joey this was an eye opener for me. I am really thankful that you made a video regarding it. I am an emotional empath. I really wanna learn more about it . please make some more podcasts on it. LOVE from INDIA
I guess I would describe myself as an intuitive/emotional empath. And that feeling you have with animals, I do to. I work with traumatized horses every now and then, and I often can just feel their anxiety through my whole body. As soon as I calm down, they usually pick that up aswell and calm down too. It's crazy to feel and see but non verbal comminication is so important.
Just realized, when I was younger I sometimes felt like I was being choked out of nowhere (I thought). But I slowly learned to control it by not letting things and emotions get to me, so maybe I could fit in with being a physical empath as well😅🤷🏼♀️
So what if you answered yes to more than 5 for each? It's obvious after watching this video I'm seeing a person who can have both emotional and physical empathy. That's me. OMG the pain I feel daily is so draining and overwhelming. I'm really beginning to wonder about things because I have ADHD as well. People who have ADHD can feel things others who aren't ADHD can't feel. It would be an interesting study.
Hey there, so yes I am an empath, me and my friend did the quiz and got alot of "yes" to the questions, almost all of them I just wondered if I am sick some how?! and if though, did you figure out any practical solutions from that book? With love 🤘
I am definitely a physical empath however, I am also a partially emotional empath. The pain i get has started to become get more intense. I wonder if anyone is doing research on this?
I feel pain when loved ones are hurt sick or dying. Physical pain. They have a stroke, I get a headache. It happens prior to events. My body is a lightning rod. I get depressed suddenly for no reason. A few hours later, the phone rings. Psychic empathetic and trying to use it for a purpose. I need down time often. Yes to all questions. Caregiver burn out. Savior complex? Co dependent? Hyper sensitive and creative. I live in a different world.
