Hi, I'm an Empath.

Aftermath of Dealing with people.

One thing you should know about empaths is that, alot of the time we are drained. Like, really drained. 

For me, after being at school all day and having to endure the energies of every student, teacher, janitor, bus driver, you name it. If they are there I'm probably what they are. Which, you would be surprised (or maybe not) as to how much negative energy there is. There is A LOT. And for empaths, Negative energy can be the most draining. 

This is why, a lot of the time, I get grouchy or hostile for no reason, or I just don't want to talk to ANYBODY. Even over the phone is an issues for me. Because if I have a close enough bond with the person I'm texting/calling, like a best friend or family member that I'm close with, I can still feel what they feel even though we aren't physically near each other. And I know you're thinking, "but if they are talking to you and they are feeling happy you should be fine right? not being drained? right?" wrong. even positive emotions drain me. It's weird how it works I know. But It's my life. 

So how do we solve this issue? How do we find a way to peacefully.. restore our sanity and energy, well I'll tell ya. 

Well, for some empaths (I say some because I don't know how other people go about their life as an empath so bleh), spending time outside in nature, around maybe some woods, or a natural body of water, maybe just sitting outside under a tree watching birds and squirrels, can be a great way to relax and let those other energies that aren't theirs drift away. Some also just prefer to simply be left alone for a bit. Hang out in their rooms and watch tv or play a video game, for me I even prefer listening to music. but not just any music, music that actually makes me FEEL, like certain songs by billy eilish or twenty one pilots, even songs about depression, somehow they help me cope with the different energies I've acquired during the day. 

But again a lot of this is just my perspective. If you have any questions you would like me to answer, please, LET ME KNOW, I will answer it as thoroughly  as possible. Don't be shy or afraid to ask ANYTHING. no question is a bad question. Until next time.. buh byeee
