And all this time I thought I was just an overly-sensitive, introverted, woosie nerd. I’m afraid of carnival rides, hate violent movies and feel uncomfortable in social situations. Stress makes me sick, literally. (I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome.)

On the positive side, I’ve been told I’m compassionate and creative. I love to write and people seem to like my quirky but likeable characters. My stories are character driven. Unfortunately that’s not selling now. The public loves horror and I can’t read it, let alone write it.

If HSP really does make up 20% of the population, maybe I’m not such an oddball. Maybe I’m really writing for that 20% that also hate horror and want to read about HSP characters, too.

Thank you for giving me hope.

Being highly sensitive it was hard for me to listen to interview as I kept picking up on the nervousness of the interviewer. That caused me to find myself honing in on him rather than the wonderful information presented by Ted.

I think we need to start honoring all people and stop looking for left brain information about people who process from the right brain, and from then gut and perceive life on many levels. As our world spins more out of control and things get faster and faster we may need the hsp’s to help us process the information on a feeling level.
