These are such great thoughts Mimi, thank you for sharing with us and Caela! I couldn’t agree more that HSPs suffer more in situations that are wrong for them, but shine more in situations that are right for them. All in all, I’m personally grateful to be a HSP because I wouldn’t want to be someone who easily tolerated the wrong thing! That wouldn’t amount to a good life. And your advice about focusing on the “feeling alive” part is right on! 🙂
