Just found out I might have a genetic trait that causes me to be what is known as a "highly sensitive person". I've done a little research on it and it honestly explains why I've felt so different all my life. I don't even know if subs can be enough to override this. It's basically something that affects the nervous system causing me to feel things deeper and be more affected by things. So anything that would have caused guilt/shame/fear is basically multiplied for me. I always fall in love too easily and too deeply. I need time to recharge my emotions after being social. And basically I can't embrace my emotions, because if I allow myself to feel them ill just end up crying, or I just find it overwhelming and shut down.
This honestly explains everything about me and all the issues I've had in my life. I have no idea how to go about dealing with this. There are no treatment options, just therapy and advice on how to embrace it. I don't know if I really want to embrace it, I want to live normally like others, not live this way
