Hello there!
I really don't know if I am an empath.I believe I am but some of the information I have read about the subject, does not fit in.
For example, strangers do not open a conversation with me and don't open their minds to me.But, I sense that whenever a person comes close to me I tend to close myself up in a certain way, I even don't do it on purpose, it just happens and then the person receives the message that it is better not to talk to me.When I first realised that I was stunned.And I would really like to find a way to stop this kind of "shield", to control it and prevent it from raising by itself but I just don't know how.
I remember, when I was younger, I was a lot more sensitive and moody.I could't explain my feelings and I was so afraid of crowded places and streets that I changed my way in order to avoid them!Sometimes, I still do. but not so often.
I came to believe that I was an empath but I somehow suppresed this ability because it was too painfull to me.Is this possible and if so , how can I reclame my empathic abilities, if, that is,I really have any ? |

Generally there are two forms of empathy. Well actually there are 2 forms of basically any psi ability, there is the receiving, and the sending. You may be more of a sender of empathy than a receivier. Most psi abilities are always kinda there, and based on your surrroundings as a child you generally either learn to deal with them in whatever way is acceptable to thus surrondings. Do you think it may be possible you were told off for being moody as a child, or got negetive feedback when you read someone else's emotions, as that could be why you react in such a way.
Just a thought.

| Most of the times, when I am with people, a strange thing happens.They tell me their problems and I listen to them at first.But then I start feeling them deeply and expressing their feelings either with face expression or words, even tears sometime.I feel like a filter, their feeling coming through me and then disappear into thin air.Most of the times, the friend with the problem feels a lot better afterwards and I stop feeling their feelings as long as I am left alone. |

I've had empathy for about 4 years now... when it first came about I didn't know anything about psychic abilities and I was working in a grocery store. All of a sudden if I had a cranky person in my checkout line I'd be cranky... then if someone was in a great mood I'd be in a great mood. I started HATING work w/ a passion just because all day long my emotions were going up and down up and down. I just stuck it out and stayed woundering why i was so effected by ppl when before nothing could bring me down. You could have litterally pissed in my cheerios and I would have been like thats ok please use the bathroom next time and i'd go dump out the bowl and get a new one. Nothing made me mad.. until my empathy kicked in and then i met my now ex in college and i had my awakening... thats another fun not so fun story.  It took me about a year and 4 months before i figured out it was empathy. Once you make a sheild everything will balance out and it won't have as much of an effect on you.
Empathy lets you feel out a persons true intentions... I do this for my friends and myself all the time, if they just meet someone I can tell if they should stay away from that person or not. The other day i just walked into a bar w/ a good 40 ppl and immediatly picked out who to stay away from and i wasn't even there for 3 seconds. I love my empathy and I couldn't live w/out it. |

I had never heard about your case, but, perhaps, as Zygos says , you may be a Sender. I don`t mean to be rude, but don`t you think this could deal with your personality? Perhaps you emit bad energy and other people just sense it (because we can all feel energies) and try not to get this energy.
I have been an empath all my life (I believe we are all an empath since born, as well as other psychiq abilities), But just discovered it almost a year ago, and started healing people. |

how can it be sending when i'm receiving r e c e i v e i n g from them... Explain how i'm right everytime. I can give you a list a mile long of all the times I've been right. If i was sending it then how would i know something bad was going to happen.... doesn't make any sense.
Going back to zygos's post... I was always a very happy child and before I had empathy *or discovered it* I would always find any person in the room that was feeling down and make them happy. I'd do just about anything to pick up that persons mood.
I know I can send out my emotions as well.. most of my friends can pick out what i'm feeling at any moment...they know when there is something wrong. |

Ok, I think you need to calm down a bit. We're not having a go at you, you asked us a question and we're trying to answer it. But we don't have all the answers. Nobody does (Except maybe a cult..heh), we're all in the same boat, and though in this time/space based reality some of us have been awake in our empathy longer, doesn't mean we just know the answer to your question.
Now I need to ask you a question. When you feel other people's emotions in a room, and when you go out of that room (Into a bathroom, outside or some other area seperate than the people), do you still feel the emotion? If you do, its your emotion. If you don't...your strength could be recieiving versus sending. Or you could be getting some sort of precog, do you see pictures in your head as they are explaining things?

lol... i'm sorry lots of things have been happening right now in my life and i've found out that i'm very easily agrivated. So I apoligize for my outburst.
Zygos I don't know if this answers your ? or not but i used to go over my friends house all the time... and either I would leave feeling depressed or I'd leave feeling really happy. I'd leave and i'd start crying for no reason... I have a habit of holding everything in while i'm around someone and then when i'm away i let it out. Yeah i know thats not healthy for me... When I'd get there I'm always happy and in a good mood and i try to make other ppl feel the same way.
I just had a thought the other day i was at the bar w/ a bunch of friends and I just couldn't stand the negativity in there but when i went outside I was better.
If anyone would like to know what is going on in my life right now I'll tell ya. I'm in the process of getting away from a very controlling boyfriend. He's an empath/telepath and he placed trigger, commands and what not into my head so i'm going through quite a stressed out period and he won't just go away or leave me alone. He's the same person I talked about in the my last posting. Once again i'm sorry for being so short. |

Its no problem. I do a job where I often have my customers come in aggravated, I know directness generally drives the point.

Ok, this seems to have the classic signs of repressed emotion. Generally when we use the phrase "Crying for no reason" its a cut down of ourselves. From the info below, a break up can often be the reason for this...but I'll get into a few more reasons below.

Another sign of repressed emotion. You don't feel good unless people are in a good mood too....

There's a good post in the Magick section where as someone was being attacked energetcally by another person, so instead of recommending stuff, I'll just post the link here: http://www.mysticalwonders.org/group/viewtopic.php?t=301
Good info and advice from a variety of ppl here, and though the post may not be as extreme as yours, if someone decided to put triggers in your mind...well thats just not ok.

Well it sounds like your really repressing all of it, or he's directing his emotion into you. (Some psychics will do that to their partners consciously or unconsciously). Unfortuately the only soultion may be letting yourself feel the emotion fully....it will take a long time, but you'll feel a lot better afterwards.

| It's easy to learn empathy if you have some sensing ability, just learn to tell emotions by facial expressions, and learn what the different emotional energies feel like. easy. a pretty valuable skill too... |

Hello Fen Zero!You are not at all rude, don't worry!I have passed from the stage of bad energy.I was psychologically very down for a period of my life, severalyears ago and then people tended to avoid me, I guess I was sort of draining them.Now, I am very good and I feel them drain from me sometimes.I am sure that I am not sending them something bad because I've already done it and know how it feels!
Kisses! |

I can relate to the empathic confusion, been there...
Developing an aura shield helps, as well as WhitelIght.
If you are interested i can pass along an energy exchange of WhiteLight, and you can see how it works for you.
Negativity does not usually like light, or love, so try to beam love where there is lower energy. It can help enlighten the energy as well as get it away from you.
Remember like attracts like.
If you are in a certain place on your path you'll attract what resides i that realm of consciousness by natural law.
Being an empath can be very difficult, until ypou learn how to be centered and properly identity yourself, from the feelings coming in.
Daily affirmation for you: I am centered.
(Say this alot and ntice how it feels.)
It can be balanced, so don't despair...
Pm me if you'd like the WhiteLight energy exchange, and we'll see if it helps.
Love and light
