Absorbing Other People's Feelings and ThoughtsI have recently found out that I'm an Empath. Apparently I have had this ability all my life. I pick up other people's feelings. Which I guess explains my life why I have always felt like someone else and never myself. It's scary 'cause I get so overwhelmed by the feelings and thoughts of others it drags me into a bad depression. I use music and alcohol to drown out these alien thoughts and feelings. Is there anyone out there that knows anyone or has this ability that can help me cope with this? A few tips would be great. I hate going through times like every few weeks to a month where I come close to killing myself.

srsly
i don't like to think of my ability as empathy, but i can do something similar to what you can! if i touch a person or something they've touched and put alot of emotion or energy into i can feel it and absorbe the feeling i can also convert any type of energy or emotion into pure energy and store it in my body for if i need it later. i can sometimes feel what i sertin emotion is linked to. like if some one is thinking about me or some one im close to is thinking about some one they love i can feel it and if they have been thinking abought a sertin person i can walk into there house and know who they were thinking about. i dont adaped there thoughts as my own and i dont feel there emotion as mine unless its anger. i can also absorb other abilitys kind of like peter patrellie off of heros but diffrent.
Super Power?
Really empathy isn't a super power most people are that way. It's just a simple matter of observing how someone acts, talks, etc. It Really isn't a "super power"

I recently found out I was empathic also. I could feel as others felt in waves of sadness or happiness. These sudden changes and pressure have led me in the past to physically harm myself because it really is more of a curse than a gift. I couldn't handle High School the first year so I did school over the phone. I tried going back but I gave up and dropped out. It really is a curse. My advice: either learn to dull out other people or do what I'm doing .. staying in my house 24/7 with almost zero human contact scept for my parents. No exaggeration.

I have that. I dont take the negative stuff, i always take the positive feelings and use that to my advantage

anonymous,are you the one from oxford?
feelings
Sounds worse for you.I've never become suicidal with this ability,but once I become close to a person it's like I know if something is worng with them, no matter how far. Including my really close friend, in Canada. You can believe or not as long as me and the people I know belive in this ability I have, I don't care what skepticals think.
Me too!
Wow. I'm happy I found you because I've been feeling other people's feelings for a long time. Me and my friend can do it but I never knew anyone else! The problem is it just comes to me. I can tell if people are mad at me or sad or angry or whatever. I wanna know if we can control other people's feelings. That'd be cool.
I will help you.
I am apparently a natural born empath. I have delt with others feelings and emotions overwhelming me my entire life and had no idea what the heck it was all for. Recently, I have found that it is common, actually.
Some of us are more sensative than others. I have died several times. Not me, but other people that have been near me when dying. I actually had one that knocked me out and pulled me along the ambulance as it raced past my car. I cannot tell you how intense the sadness and love felt to me. When I came to, I could do nothing but cry. I was so weak and drained that I could not hold myself upright.
I pray it is not like this for you.
I have embraced my gift and worked to make it stonger through helping people accept themselves as a spiritual individual. Animals are easier to understand now, they talk in pictures. Funny huh?
I have changed a few lives for the better since embracing my gift, including my own. You can contact me at zoooooomn@yahoo.com anytime. I would love to talk to you. I welcome anyone who has had experiences like mine and encourage anyone that is drinking to drown the emotions to contact me. Alcohol is not a solution.
I think I can also heal with my hands. THey get so hot and feel like they are on fire sometimes. I can focus it and make it hotter as well. Sometimes I hold onto cold metal or and ice cube if it gets too bad. But that's another story......
I have been fighting my
I have been fighting my emotions all my life. I have always been seen as the one in the family who was the "emotional" one. I don't like public places, because I have a tendency to get an emotional overload. There are times that I get such an overload that I just want to curl up and cry. I haven't ever been very sociable. I love nature; I finally had a place to soak in what went on that day, and get lost in the elements of nature. Throughout the years, I have learned to block emotions; hide mine from the world and keep others from overtaking me. Still, at the end of the day, I feel emotionally tired. I never really new why I felt that way; I thought I was weird, I guess. So I live introverted. There was a recent event in the family that made it impossible to hide anymore. For the past 2 months I have been trying to sift through the emotions to figure out which were mine and which weren't. I always knew I felt very sympathetic towards other people, but I always just thought that was it. My eyes were opened to the possibly when a family member came to visit who was seriously depressed, and it seemed to "spread" to me. I was in an exceptionally good mood until then. Physically, you couldn't tell what was happening to the person, but I seemed to catch on quickly. I gave her a hug and I could feel my heart sink, my tears swell up, my body ache, and I knew the smile she gave was fake.
The problem is, don't ask me what I am feeling; I can't tell most of the time. Trying to block out emotions for so long has seemed to make me numb to my own!
easy
its easy! just hang out alone for a while
WOW.. another empath.. i so
WOW.. another empath.. i so know what ur going threw... im an emapth and im precognitive as well... I just recently got this ability but i was told that if u meditate b4 u go out into a big place that u won't pick up so much emotions and all that stuff... well iv done it and it kina works... when i was going to school and i didn't meditate i was overwhelmed by all the emotions and and the pain that every body was going threw... but when i meditate b4 i go to bed ( for like an hour or two) i can go to school now and not feel evry bodys emotion all at once...

You have no idea how greatful I felt when I came across your post. For years I've been thinking and feeling I'm cursed or mental, as I have and still do experience other peoples' feelings to the same extent that it affects me physically. I've learnt to stop it putting me into a state of depression by, strangely enough, listening to music which most people would refer to as aggressive. I find that focussing on the heavy guitar sounds and drum beats calms me down. I've had to cut out alcolhol a lot as with myself I found that drinking heightened the negative side of things. One trick I taught myself has helped a lot, especially when I'm in unavoidable situations where I can't turn to music and the persons emotions/ feelings are negative. I allow myself to absorb the persons feelings as usual but while that's happening, in my mind I repeat my mantra to myself over and over while (okay this bit is going to sound nuts) I allow what I call my "third voice" to tell the person whose feelings I'm picking up on, that they are feeling calm etc. The person's mood and feelings change and I'm able to only pick up on positive feelings.
Empaths
Its hard to be an empath but i've come to terms with the fact that those that do it are the only ones who can handle sharing emotions with someone. Its amazing how empaths can make anyone else feel understood but can't make themselves not feel alone. It is a heavy burden to bear...
Empath
Hey, I know exactly what you feel like. I can sense other people's feeling too. My advice is this:
1. try to get some alone time. when your not around people all the time you can't sense their feelings
2. when you're alone try to find your personality. Look down deep. Dig past all the layers of other people's emotions and find your own.
3. when you find your personality, grab on to it and never let it go. remember it, so when you go out and are around other people, you will always remember your emotions and nobody elses.
When I discovered my Gift, I was depressed all the time. I couldn't eat, I felt awful, and I didn't know who I was. Well one time when I was all alone, I was clear headed, not suffering from someone elses emotions, I took some time to find myself. and it worked! I feel great now and I'm living (and feeling) a life that is mine. :)
