One of my closest friends was misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder as a teenager. Instead of calling it a misdiagnosis, she's told that she grew out of it. =/ I knew she was an empath but this was before I had known the word empath even existed. I ...

I did my best. Last time I saw that young man, he still believed that women in the workforce were the root of the world's biggest problems. Baby steps... lol

Hello Anthony, Hadn't heard the term FOB before. Your response and actions in opening the co-worker's eyes to what he could not see is just what Empaths need to do, tearing down walls of ignorance and prejudice, one soul at a time. :-) JAJ

I have issues with the empaths being associated with any religion, regardless of whether it's old religion or new age. Where I live, Christians are taught to be very fearful. They associate things they don't understand with the devil. Then sometim...

Oh, and now's a good time to start looking for others like yourself. There may even be a few at your school. If you find them, keep them close. They'll be a big help later on. ;)

I love the way you express yourself. I had similar thoughts when I was younger. All I can say is just hold on because it gets easier when you get older. That's one thing to look forward to.

I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say you're probably really hypersensitive. The more information you take in through your senses, the more potential you have to develop advanced empathic abilities. The advanced empathic abilities come abou...

Most of the other empaths I've come across were introverted but there were a few extroverts. Extroverted empaths are often intoxicating to me.

I'm only interested in using the 'An' at the beginning with my children. I just likes the way it initially feels when it's pronounced out loud.

There's the concept called 'old souls'. It means a lot of different things to different people. Where I'm from, it's used to describe young people that have knowledge, wisdom and/or mannerisms that are beyond their years. This is something I've se...

My mom named me after a man that possessed the same qualities you speak of. In a way, it feels like I'm carrying someone else's torch with this name but that's not bad... It's a cool torch to carry. Perhaps the name influenced both of us the same ...

I'm secure enough with my masculinity to go by Anthony and you are 100% correct. The balancing is complicated but very useful.

It seems like you've been exposed to other strong empaths throughout your life and inherited from them. If those empaths were a part of your family then I can see the connection.

I have a pentacle tattooed on my right upper arm. When I was younger, I enjoyed the company of pagans because it seemed like they were the only ones that understood what was going on inside my head. I had pentacle necklace that I wore around my n...

I've noticed that words invoke emotions when they are spoken out loud. The most emotions seem to be invoked with curses or through words that are used for people's names. This is difficult to explain. You can feel it when you say a curse word. You...

Profile Information

Are you an Empath? (either way is fine!)
Yes
What you're looking for in our community:
I'm just simply looking for a community. We are a bit of a minority but people are gradually gaining interest in us.
About You:
I don't know how to go about this without sounding crazy. I come from a family of empaths but they're really tight knit. I seem to be the only one of the empaths within our family that's venturing out. I'm also a CODA (Children of Deaf Adults) and there seems to be a lot of highly empathic people within that community.

One of my aunties did a lot of research on this in the past and I helped her a little. I've been seeking out other empaths ever since I was in high school. Two of my closest friends are empaths also and many of the other people I've come across are... well... complicated.

Since I come from a family of empaths, I feel I have a little more experience than others I've come across. I try to be as helpful as possible to both empaths and non-empaths.

Syncing with other empaths... FOB

A co-worker I was mentoring called a young girl a FOB. I didn't know what it meant at first and when I figured it out, I made an issue of proving a point to him.

The co-worker had been observing long enough to notice there was something unusual about me. When he began to ask questions, I explained everything to him just for the sake of my own amusement. I talked to him about advanced empathy, hypersensitivity, heightened awareness and heightened consciousness. After I explained it all to him, h… Continue

Syncing with other empaths...

I was working in a retail store. A lady customer came to me and asked me to assist her. I began following her and we walked half way across the store. I had noticed that this lady had passed several of my co-workers while searching for someone to help her. I immediately understood why.

The lady lead me to the toy department and asked me fetch a toy that was too high for her to reach. I reached up and grabbed it for her. Then she asked to see a similar toy that was also too high for her to reach… Continue

Synching while in conversation.

I call it syncing. It kinda feels like hypnosis. Sometimes when I'm having a conversation with someone, I tune in so well to what they're thinking and feeling that gradually over time they stop talking to me. They stop talking to me and begin talking to themselves. It's as if I become the voice within their head instead of the person at the other end of the conversation.

I don't think most people are comfortable saying exactly what they're thinking and feeling. I'll make a person feel comfortab… Continue

Natural Born

I did not one day suddenly discover that I was an empath. I came from a family of empaths. When I was little, I thought everyone was like us. When I grew little older, I did suddenly discover that they were not.

The new agers use the term 'natural born'. I'm not sure if I or anyone else was born this way so I'm usually not comfortable using that. I only use it because it is widely recognized and for the most part expresses the sentiment I wish to convey.

They call us natural borns because we p… Continue

Hello, Anthony.
I'm very new to this site, and don't know how to send personal messages, or anything else like that, so I figured leaving a comment would be just the same right now.

I've seventeen, and trying to determine whether or not I am truly an Empath, and have been searching for someone I am be able to talk to about it. I was immediately drawn to you. - If, maybe, you could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Of course, feel more then free to say no.
