When You Feel Too Much

You've been told your whole life that you're too sensitive. You're not.

You feel everything intensely - other people's moods, criticism, noise, beauty, the news. A busy day leaves you frayed and desperate to be alone. A harsh word replays for hours. You cry easily, absorb everyone's emotions, and have come to suspect something is wrong with you. Here's the truth: nothing is wrong with you. You are almost certainly a highly sensitive person - and that is a real, normal trait found in about one in five people. Your reactions are wiring, not weakness.

When You Feel Too Much is a warm, grounded, practical guide for the emotionally sensitive - the deeply feeling overthinkers, empaths, and introverts who are overwhelmed by a loud world. No mysticism, no 'just toughen up.' Instead it helps you understand your sensitive nervous system and work with it, so your sensitivity stops being a burden and becomes the strength it truly is.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

• Understand why you process more deeply - and overload sooner than others
• Calm overstimulation and recover when the world is too loud
• Ride big emotional waves without being swept away
• Stop absorbing everyone else's moods - care without drowning
• Soften the sting of criticism and stop it replaying for days
• Set the boundaries a sensitive person needs, without the guilt
• Build a life - work, home, relationships - that fits your nature
