Alright please please please don't make fun of me yet I'm an empath (Note:am NOT a mind reader or anything similar nor claim to be) yet nights now for me......I am awake literally far too long of stretches in the night crying my stupid heart out through my eyes over world issues problems etc not even belonging to me. I had not realized nor embraced it until being driven to near self destruction by trying to fit in and 'be a guy' like all the rest. I have no clue who I am, or where my life is headed. Everyone. Embrace the you and now, before it is too late. As for me, I have got a lot of wiping m eyes and staring at the ceiling yet to do. Cheers.

is it the world or you that is keeping you awake?
I would recommend reading David Burns book "Feeling good" as an intro to understanding your selftalk and the way your ruminations can be redirected to be more useful to your mood. |

It is one thing to be empathetic to others,
taking on their burdens..tis another to bring down anyone who reads your posts. Depressing, man. No one can help you but you. We wish words would do the trick.. but it takes action, a starting point for perspective. Maybe the forums will help you..maybe you will help the forums. Anyhoo welcome to the joys of unburdening :-) |

Sorry to be so depressing. I know I am...

Maybe you can listen to some music at night. It may not help you sleep but maybe you will concentrate on the music and forget about other things. Try soft rock or classical.

Sorry to be so depressing. I know I am... I'm not an expert, but sounds like you have depression. Might be a good idea to speak to a professional. Good luck. |

Sorry to be so depressing. I know I am... We all have our days :-) And self-awareness is a first step. |

Ironically, soft music is one thing which most taps my soul. It can be a blessing and a curse. Depression is certainly a side-effect of it, yet not all encompassing. Thanks everyone whom has replied :)

First of all you don't want to fit in like all the rest in society today cause most of them are in the same boat that you are in. meaning not grounded and it seems to me you have a lot of work to do on your self/your being. It takes a lot of work to find your true self. Start with integrity that is your foundation. People seem to have a hard time coming to terms with the fact that they need to work on there own wellbeing to eventually find their genuine self/being and if you really want it you will put in the effort to achieve it. believe me it does not happen over night I work at it everyday.

Well sounds like you need a nutritionsist. Maybe not enough water? A little puff puff will place you in sleep mode. Also, i would get a check up. Maybe need a med for depression. Fresh air and Excersise would help. Good luck bubba.

Hello..I to consider myself an empath..there are support groups for empaths on facebook..we feel things deeply and can feel people's energy which can be extremely overwhelming at times. We need time alone to recharge. Walking in nature helps to..Alot of people do not understand what empaths are. It is a gift and a curse for sure. Find a support group somewhere.. talk to others like you.

Well.op.. when I can't sleep..
I do the one thing I know that will put me to sleep.... reaches for his Kleenex box and closes the door behind him self...lol....dud.. you can either choose to feel sorry for yourself.. or you can choose to embrace the person you are... and make the most of it... everyone has bad days bad weeks and months.. but you just suck it up.. Shake It Off... and get on with the job of living your life..yup.. don't worry about the world's problems so much nothing you can do to solve it |

Us humans evolved to be ultra sensitive to danger because if we mistook the rustling of the grass to be the wind when it was really a predator we would have not survive very long. Now while that sensitivity has served us well in the past it can cause us much harm now as it can have us searching out hidden dangers and negative possibilities that aren't there and because we are so focused we find any possibility magnified. Your mission if you choose to accept it is to de-magnify your imagination down to reality |

Being an Empath is difficult. There are support groups available.
http://empathsupport.com/ for example. But if you are not sleeping nights I suggest you get your blood pressure checked as well. What you are experiencing could be partly caused by excessively high blood pressure as well. As an Empath the first lesson it to take care of yourself first! |
