Are you a highly sensitive person?  — 4 weeks ago

http://www.hsperson.com/

HSP-”...highly sensitive people, which would represent about a fifth of the population, process sensory data much more deeply and thoroughly due to a biological difference in their nervous systems…”
(from wikipedia)

This test indicates that I am. (I answered 25 out of 27) The test states that if you answer more than 14, you might be a HSP.

This is surprising.

You have indicated that 8 of the items are true of you.

I’m not as sensitive as I thought.

Uncle Enore Meh...

And I...

...am a complete clod with 4 one time and 5 the next.

I think this helps

you and Serenity balance eachother out.

Uncle Enore Meh...

That could be.

The baby sure is a sensitive lil thing.

Yet, I think I am too. Overly sensitive a lot of times.

Meh, it’s just another idiotic internet test.

That's exactly

what a non-HSP would say. :)

I disagree on it being idiotic, but for someone who doesn’t fit the mold, or know what it feels like – I can understand where you might think that.

OHHHHHHHHh

you called me baby

You have indicated that 5 of the items are true of you.

I’m not sure did I really understand what all of them meant. But I don’t think I am highly sensitive person.

I’ve had the language problem too. :o

No brainer here for me!

I have seen this book. Yes, I answer yes to most of those questions.

thats just borderline sensitive .. but I wouldn’t say I was really, I certainly don’t feel it.

nicolasc is, has been, and will be only popping in and out of 43T for a bit.

for me, too.

gee, I'm shocked

although I answered 25, i have trained myself to deal with the sensitivities that relate to work. also, although i am sensitive to pain, I have a high pain threshold.

That was one of the ones

that I answered no to. I have a high pain threshold as well.

Not particularly surprised

I scored a 20.

huh

Tink promises to find time soon to reply to all those birthday messages.

I'm not easily overwhelmed...

...by sensory input, which seems to a big part of what Dr. Aron means by “highly sensitive.”

I do tend to notice subtleties in my environment (especially interpersonal subtleties: facial expressions, body language, tone of voice, etc.), and I definitely need plenty of solitude to remain feeling balanced.

All in all, I’m not surprised to have scored a below-the-threshold 9.

as well

too. Borderline, I guess.

I scored a 14.

i am on the low end of highly sensitive. i can deal with that.

14? You?

I scored 20. And I’m as rough as a cob compared to you.

I admit,

I was kinda surprised – I figured I’d at least be a 19 – I’m afraid I am turnin’ into an apathetic old lady.

nah

you just need a little tenderizin’

;)

lemme see if i have any marinade handy

i'm certain

you’re capable of spicin’ things up a little bit.

but I think that being a HSP is a good thing.

I’m definitely very sensitive. My sister says I’m like a child (I need to keep hydrated and fed, extreme heat or noise really bothers me). It’s really annoying… but I think it’s good when it comes to appreciating the arts.
