Re: The consequences of hightened empathy
Wow, Saijen, you feel the pain too. I thought I was kind of alone with that. Being crippled by very tight spasms of pain, caused by things outside the body, is NOT something to wish for. It can lead you into a lot of danger - think war zone, then feeling every bit of despair from everything - mammals, birds, trees, and spirits. That knocks you out, until your brain can filter it out. I cannot tune it down, turn it off or make it less; all I can do is try to function. Sometimes I need to surround myself with energy, just to cope with living. Not fun sometimes, being me.

Re: The consequences of hightened empathy
First....FIRLE...sorry about the freak out PM over the weekend. Bless you.
SAIJEN....I will definitely try that technique. Sounds like it would work for me.
MULADZH...I actually react to to many people as just like buzzing hornets, kind of just too noisy.
I react to animals ....with deep, pain...sadness, probably why I can't say no to any animal needing help.
They are my physical downfall...

Re: The consequences of hightened empathy
Muladzh, I've been able to feel pain of plants and people since I was little. It's rare to feel it if it's a minor thing like a paper cut, fever blister, etc...it's usually large doses of pain and sometimes, I think that's why I am in the condition I am in, and no doctor can figure out why....because there simply is nothing there that can cause my pain. However, if me taking it on helps someone else be able to handle it better, then I'll continue to deal with it the best way I can. I do not intentionally take on another's pain, because I have enough of my own....but sometimes, I think my body is like a pain magnet, and just attracts certain kinds of chronic pain. Then....there are things like with the tornado. That was some of the most horrific pain I've ever had to deal with, and feeling it, then having to shield myself as best as I could from it, really wore me out. The pain would ease off when I'd leave the area, but I had lingering problems, and think I still do, to some degree. Definitely not fun!!!
Queeny, I think you'll find things easier when you fling off the negativity. It seems like a silly solution, but it works.
Several months ago, I was at my reflexologist's getting a session, and she apologized for the hand movements and before she could explain, I told her that I understood and knew why she was doing it. She said.."OK...why do you think I'm doing it?"....so I told her, and she was surprised that I knew. Apparently, the massage therapist she shares a space with does this as well....as she should. A Reiki Master I had do a healing on my knee several years ago, also did this.....and a man from an online group I used to be a part of did. We had all taken a MOther's DAy weekend and met in Woolley Hollow, Arkansas, and had some sessions on the use of healing power, and a bunch of other neat things. I was the person he used to show the group some healing techniques on.
Got some more stuff packed up yesterday, and DH took a load to storage. I am kind of in a 'don't give-a-damn' mode right now. I think I've over extended myself, yet again, and all I want to do is curl up in the bed, only getting up to use the bathroom. I don't even really care if I eat or not, but I am eating, because if I don't, my meds upset my stomach. I will be SO glad when this is all over and I can just 'be' for a while.
Too much happening and I can't seem to keep it all straight, even though I'm putting it all on calendars, putting reminders on the calendar on my phone.....damn, old age sux!!!

Re: The consequences of hightened empathy
Saijen, I reckon you might be helped by carrying magnetic haematite ( other name hematite,or magnetite,) I use it to calm down my living spaces, and vehicles. Either stick it on something ferrous - iron or steel, or carry it around with you, but be careful of credit cards near it. If you don't have any, call next time you coming down Burem Road, and see if we are in - if we are, I have a lot of haematite and can give you a few rocks. I am sending you a PM of our home telephone number, that way you can get us - coz cell doesn't always work here.
Iron magnets do not stave off empathic attraction - only Haematite does that. Hopefully it will help you.

Re: The consequences of hightened empathy
Thank you, Muladzh. I do have some magnetic Hematite. I actually have several pieces of jewelry made with it. One of them, I don't exactly care a lot for, so may take it apart, cleanse it and use those pieces. Carry them in a pocket or a pouch of some sort that I can easily pin to the inside of a blouse or some such. I would imagine it works better if it's on my person rather than in a pocket in my purse, even though my purse usually goes wherever I go.
I got your pm, and sent a reply

Re: The consequences of hightened empathy
Queeny: No worries. I wasn't freaked by your PM. Glad you got better quickly, too.
I'm wearing black turmaline right now - I feel it's helping me stay with myself. And I just received a lovely armband of lapislazuli and rock crystal that I ordered the other day. Handmade, totally beautiful and hopefully helping me to deal with fears.
