I'm not sure if this really does go here but whatever, I'll get over it. Well anyway, its really weird cause if I'm talking to somebody and the start saying they have a headache, I'll get a headache. If they say it's like right in the middle of their forehead, that's where it'll be. And if they say it hurts alot, my head will start to REALLY hurt. I think I heard that it was Dakota Fanning or some other famous girl that had the same thing. Does this sound familiar to anybody? Does anybody know a solution cause now I've got a headache just like I talked about above.

Sounds like empathy to me. I've got it and it really sucks. Don't worry, you'll learn to suppress it.

i agree with elegance. it does sound like empathy. the key is one thing and one thing only. shields. all day long. grounding can help with temporary spikes but sheilds are whats gonna help you get through the day.

empathy is that other people's auras are actually entering and altering your own. thats why you use shields is to prevent others from altering you. one thign i do is carry around a charged piece of black tourmaline. its a stone that is good for protection and grounding and so the combination makes your life so awsome. ever since i started using that ive felt better and am able to live a much more normal life.(sorry if i didnt mention it, i'm also an empath)

Hey good idea.


@ love my gum...

You really should find a way to cope with it. Otherwise you'll end up not caring about people. Basically, you'll feel but you won't actually care. And that is not good.

I went through a phase where I just plain didn't care about anyone's feelings. It was really just a defense mechanism. I mean, I had my own issues to deal with and having to sort through other people's emotions on top of that was maddening.

i think probably every empath on planet earth has done that. ive doine it a few times. i had a good friend that could tell that i'd reached my limit and was clamming up. she hated me being like that cause you kinda just take on a ******** the rest of the world type attitude. its rough and not worth going through trust me. but stuff like shielding, grounding/centering, getting either stones or small sachets of herbs(whichever is easiest for you), or starting daily meditation if you have time. all of that works. and its even good to do multiple things. every morning i meditate to align, cleanse and sheild my energy. then i have my black tourmaline on my person at all times to aid me in that. you do what you have to do to take care of yourself. then you worry about others. its cruel but necessary
