Yes, I'm a highly sensitive person
This quiz was really validating for me. For a long time now I feel like I've felt things in ways that most people can't relate to. It makes sense that I'm a highly sensitive person! Are you?

It said the same thing for me. I have to agree I am pretty sensitive, but not too sensitive.

I’m highly sensitive and I’m well aware of that, every time someone is mad at me, yelling etc, I can’t stop the tears from falling out, I can’t take pain or blood well either, I also feel really strong emotions for little things, like when I feel like an outsider, when friend groups are having fun all around me, laughing, talking, I feel lonely and it’s hard for me to not cry at certain moments, I HATE that I’m sensitive and vulnerable and weak, I’m such a crybaby and I TRY to not cry but feelings just overwhelm me, unlike my sister who takes things pretty well.

For me it depends on what is happening like if I'm letting myself be bored and let my mind wander it usually goes to thinking about death. I keep on thinking then start to cry because I love my family and friends but it is hard for me to wonder what will happen if one of them dies. Or when I die. Those are the moments. Also I absolutely HATE being late.

The quiz said I shared some traits with sensitive people. I've definitely gotten better at controlling my emotions but it isn't always easy. I overthink EVERYTHING, especially what people tell me about myself and what to decisions to make with my life.

I'm usually not that sensitive with anything unless I'm feeling sad tbh, being sad kinda makes me a little sensitive but overall I'm not that sensitive

I am not mainly sensitive. I find myself seeking out trouble on a regular basis and looking to prank people. I can keep a straight face when yelled at and I am not overly weak to pain. I often find myself seeking out violence, and some people have told me I am a slightly violent person. I would say I am mainly an angry or aggressive person, but towards close friends I can be quite the sweetheart.
