Your article describes me perfectly! And yes, decades of this. But I am getting stronger by the day and am very hopeful that I can get over this. Gave up on my not very helpful therapist.💕
Stronger by the day is an amazing way to go through life Sandra! And don’t let one mismatched therapist keeping you from looking for another, the right one for you is out there! ♥️
There are bad seeds in every profession, but speaking from personal experience, there are life-changing ones too! Don’t give up hope! (Someone once said to me about finding a therapist “hire slow, fire fast” and that approach has worked well for me.)
As a highly sensitive and empathic person, I totally resonate with what's said. And this is what I've realized as well in my self-discovery: to give myself all that I was so generously giving others. And to know my limits and boundaries. Without closing the heart, but with being selective of who's getting access to it as well. 👁️👁️👁️
I posted a note a while back that said: “ I wonder if sometimes it’s better to be blissfully oblivious rather than painfully aware.”
High sensitivity is both a gift and a curse depending on the situation and it’s taken a long time to fully accept that this is who I am, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything; yes it may hurt more but it also means we feel things like passion to a greater degree.🩵
I still watch Sensitive the Untold Story every so often, to get a refresher look at who I am and So Relate to Alannis Morissette’s song—That I Would be Good. I didn’t become famous but was similarly exploited.

I’m getting ready to find one here and do telehealth! 💕
Oh the games they play as they empty your wallet 😢.

“Hire slow, fire fast!” Easy to remember and helpful! Thanks, Will!
Luckily that never happened to me. Sorry it happened to you, Donna. 💕
The price we pay for being human and opening our souls to pain...
A steep price, but not one I’d trade for anything else.

Thank you for this.
Love this🩵
THIS...To be sensitive with our own pains. Be intuitive with our own needs. Be kind in the very same places where all our woundings live.
The places they abandoned, and we can no longer afford to.
OMG Will! This HIT me smack on the forehead. Thank YOU!
I recommend your book to my clients on a regular basis - thank u for writing it!
Every Word Resonated With Me ❤️🙏.
Awesome Donna, that makes me so happy to hear. Thank you my friend. ♥️
