Couch Time with Amy Wine

Dealing With Overwhelm as a Highly Sensitive Person


Listen Later

Every single one of us is affected by overwhelm, but some of us are more prone to it than others.  

 

Have you ever heard of highly sensitive people? It’s a term used to describe people who are more sensitive to stimuli like sights and sounds as well as the needs and emotions of other people. 

 

If you find yourself becoming easily overwhelmed by too much noise around you, a cluttered space, or the heavy emotions of a friend, you might be a highly sensitive person. We’re everywhere! But society isn’t really set up for us, so we have to figure out ways to protect our time and energy so that we aren’t constantly overwhelmed. 

 

In this episode I’m talking about what overwhelm is, what causes it, and how it affects highly sensitive people differently from everyone else. 

 

Whether you are a highly sensitive person or not, I guarantee someone in your life is, so it’s really important to understand and have more empathy for them. Tune in to get started!
