The Shadow Side Of Being A Highly Sensitive Person

You have good instincts, but often don’t let yourself trust them
You overly blame yourself for things that aren’t your fault
You bottle up anger and then end up lashing out unintentionally
You don’t take as good care of yourself as you deserve
You do things you’re not comfortable with to avoid upsetting anyone
You try to make other people happy, often to your own detriment
You have a hard time not taking things personally
You frequently second guess your choices
You read into things too much and get stuck in overthinking
You can easily fall into putting other people’s needs way above your own
