There isn't an empath that doesn't bear the scars of the many horrible things we've been called. Of course, because we truly DO feel everything and we truly DO take everything to heart, this can impact us at such a deep level that we take their perspective on who we are as truth. Because of that, we try to hide the depth of our feelings, and we shove the pain we are sensing deep down within. And, we often get sick from this - powerful emotions have a tendency to make us sick if we try to deny them after all.
It's time to stop feeling shame because you feel so much. It's time to stop feeling like you are weak because you care.
The weak ones are those calling you names, because they DON'T feel all that you are feeling. They walk around NOT having to carry the worries and pain and emotions and anxieties of the whole world. They get to NOT feel a constant need to DO something to stop the pain that others are feeling.
Frankly, they've got it pretty freaking easy.
You, on the other hand, carry it all. Feel it all. Look suffering right in it's face and decide that you will do something to help. You care more about others than you do yourself. You don't walk away, because you can't, and, even if you could, you wouldn't.
You are part of the solution. You carry this huge emotional burden and you keep on working to make things better.
That makes you stronger than anyone who called you names.
You are an empathic badass. Own it. Live it.
