I am a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) and ISFJ (Introversion, Sensing, Feeling, and Judging.)
“Emotional impact
For HSPs, they can face a combination of emotional highs and emotional lows. They may be highly touched by beauty or other people’s emotions.
They may cry when watching heart-warming or sad videos. HSPs may also appreciate the small things in life and may be very grateful for the life they have.
Whilst they can be highly affected by positive emotional experiences, they may also be more deeply affected by negative experiences.
Aron summarizes the aspects of high sensitivity through the acronym DOES:
D – Depth of processing. This means that things are thought through more thoroughly and how it can affect others, with lots of time needed to think about life and how the HSP feels about it.
O – Overstimulation. This is when HSPs get overstimulated by stimuli such as noise and lights. They may need a lot of time to recharge after being stimulated and may actively avoid unpleasant stimuli.
E – Emotional reactivity and empathy. Not to be confused with being an empath, HSPs can know how someone is feeling, can sense other’s moods and hate conflict.
S – Sensing the subtle. HSPs are able to notice small changes in people and their environment. They can often sense when someone is upset and change their behavior to make the other person more comfortable.”
