However, many empathic people are 'overwhelmed empaths' (meaning that their high empathy has gone into a state of overdrive.)Here are some signs you are an overwhelmed empath:You feel other peoples' emotions vividly and profoundly, and have trouble shaking off the energies afterwards, even after the other person has moved on You often have a hard time working out whether you're feeling your own energies and emotions, or someone else's You have become a hermit and withdrawn socially in order to avoid other people's energies You cannot visit crowded places such as shopping centres, stadiums, train stations, or nightclubs because the energies are so overwhelming You feel physical aches and pains, or manifest physical signs of nervousness or sickness, around certain people When it comes to movies, TV and books, you do not like watching or reading anything that features sad or difficult experiences for the characters You often find yourself playing the role of counsellor and caretaker in your relationships and friendships, but you find it a draining role to take on You often wish that other people would follow your advice and get their lives back on track Your relationships are a source of obligation and stress, either because you self-sacrifice, have a hard time saying 'no' to people, or take it upon yourself to help others with their problems You feel like your empath gifts are a curse, and you wish you could be less sensitive.
