I am learning to accept that as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) I feel and experience life very differently to most of the people in my life. Coping with an increased or deeper central nervous system sensitivity to physical, emotional or social stimuli on a daily basis is no easy task but becomes an extremely frustrating one when trying to help people understand this important fact in order to keep meaningful connections with people who matter to you.

In order to deal and cope with sometimes extremely hurtful situations that can develop from a lack of care or understanding towards each other, the difficult practise of decreasing feelings for others or restricting yourself being available to those who represent unhealthy triggers, is necessary for your own personal health, survival and continuing growth.

People can only meet you at the level of development they are at themselves – all you can wish for is that the people you care for (learn to) accept diversity without having to be pushed for you to be seen, heard or acknowledged.

“We find comfort among those who agree with us – growth among those who don’t” – Frank A. Clark

What are your go-to's when trying to distract yourself from pain/other issues at different times of the day? I try a variety of crafting, meditating, netflix (and zero chill lol) and making youtube videos to help others find some unwind time too.

The YouTube channel feels quite satisfying as I thought I would feel 'productive and useful' even when I am stuck in bed. It's not really had much success though. So that's why I am picking your brains now. I have meditations, nature sounds, relaxing music and bedtime stories but what am I missing from my channel?

All suggestions and ideas very much appreciated. TIA.

i was always sad and always the one who only think of bad outcomes instead of being positive. at one moment i think i should change live my life cus i never feel okay and im running out of time to have a life worth living for. sometimes my anxiety and depression comes when i needed to do smthg important in my life, like when i need to go on a date and the date when south cus i can’t stop thinking of “what if i said something wrong” and i got panic and it became awkward i can’t even text the guy after i got back home.

i don’t think i had a good time but the positive puppet in me telling myself that “you’re carpe-ing the diem and its not your fault it doesn’t turned out good, maybe he just never deal with a girl like you and maybe next time you will know how to manage it better”

even if we are ill, that does not mean we can’t go out and have a little fun. it does not have to be perfect, but at least we try.
