Since I recently found out I am an empath I have been trying to talk to my boyfriend about it. We always end up fighting, And I don't understand why. He says I am being negative but I am just trying to be honest. I sense that even though he says he believes me, I feel he doesn't. I feel like he just thinks I'm crazy. I just feel cursed and upset and lost. I don't really talk to my friends about it or my family because I feel they really don't get it or just think I'm crazy. What am I doing wrong? Any advice would be nice because at this point I don't think I have ever felt more alone.

i do not talk about it much myself. Unless a person is an empath or a Highly sensitive person they don't get it. I do not want this to be a curse but a blessing. I mean come on when we feel other people pains, emotions etc... it is a lot to take in. When I finally figured out what I was I started learning how to best help myself. One of the things I do is to ground myself by walking barefoot outside as much as possible. I do not watch much t.v. too much violence for me to take in. I find peace and tranquility in the woods, the smell of the grass, sound of the leaves  rustling in the wind, any nature sounds. I avoid large crowds and angry/negative people. I pray for God to help me utilize this gift he has given me.

I appreciate your help, thank you. Do you often have dreams about places that you have never been before? Or people you have never seen but you seem to know them some how? When you walk barefoot what exactly does that do?

Earthing or Grounding. Research it. Mother Earth has magnetic energies that we can glean from. Refreshing, energizing and soooo worth the time to NOT put on our shoes. There are also Earthing mats available. You plug them into the third prong of an outlet, the ground hole. Put your feet on the mat and enjoy a cup of herbal tea. Wonderful!

Best wishes on your journey of bettering your gift. It's difficult and most people don't understand empaths. I'm still learning, myself, on how to control what I let in. Some days I'm overwhelmed. I've since shared with my daughters and a cousin, my gift, to find they have the same abilities, and have also struggled with acceptance.

There's a problem with most people where if you state your observations, they will tell you you're being negative, even when it's what comes to pass. People are frustrating in that way. You're not crazy. You are seeing what most don't see or want to see. You really need to be with someone who validates you. You will be miserable otherwise.,

Thank you for your help Gary. I also feel that I don't fit all of the traits of empaths that I have read about or researched. A lot of sources imply that empaths are shy or that is what it seems to me. I do not think of myself as a shy person. Is there a spectrum? Like I said I have read a lot about empaths but maybe I am not reading the right sources? These may be really dumb questions. I just feel really new to all of this still.

No, not dumb at all.

Many empaths are shy and many are not. it just depends on their sense of self and their confidence. I used to be shy when I was younger but I'm less so now. Still, I don't cope with parties and being around 'the boys' so I clam up. I don't fit in.

While there are many traits to being an empath, you only need one to be one. To feel others feelings.

Gary and the rest of you who have chimed in on these posts,

 I just wanted to say what a job well done. I have only recently thought to look for other empaths online. For those of you who are true empaths, you know how lonely this existence can be. No matter how much someone close to you says they understand where you are coming from, it never is really to a degree where they can truly understand what we go thru.

although there don't seem to be many new posts, I plan on sticking around for this. I love to help others and knowing there are more makes me feel more safe. "normal" hahaha..now that's a joke heh?  Anyway, thanks for being who you all are.

Hello Rachel. This is important. Empaths and our existence goes further than either of us first anticipated. I'm literally 12 and have almost full control over my powers. I have information if you need it. gumbal...@gmail.com the newer generation of Empaths is growing stronger but we need your support. Your boyfriend doesn't understand how you feel but you know how he feels. You have to power to control the situation all you need to do is contact me. I know you think my age makes my entire comment seem irrelevant but it doesn't. We know how you feel and are always here to support. The future is becoming the present and Empaths will soon populate the earth but we need the older generations of empaths to help us.

I never figured this out really.
Gary is right, but I would say you are crazy :-) Is that so bad ?
I don't have any personal contact with other empaths, althought I would like to have, and I see cooping with life is to see that there are different layers, different planes. It is like you have to wear a mask sometimes. The problem is not between you and other people, it is between you and the mask
You should get a comfortable mask.
I hate shoes with all my heart, but sometimes I have to wear them.

Angela,
I shouldn't write in "you" form, I should write in "I form". I'm sorry.
Naturally I'm referring to my own fear of being crazy :-)
At the same time I would miss the craziness if it disappeared.
And yes, some tools I need. I need good curtains in my windows, that I can open and close depending of how much I want to let in.
These are only things from my life.

Love
Peter
