I feel that you could be working against yourself by insisting that you are "hypersensitive" and all the other things, you reinforce that message and make it more difficult to change. It's like you're wearing a groove in your brain that labels yourself, and then you behave in ways consistent with that label. It may be that you need to give yourself permission to observe the changes you have made and alter your self-perception, if you can't shift the label itself, inside your head.

That is a very good point Anne. I don't know if it's one the same thing, but i don't feel i walk around describing myself as "hypersensitive" exactly i just used that word in this post to describe what i feel is going on, like i FEEL or ACT in a hypersensitive way rather than labelling myself as " i AM hypersensitive". This is an example of how words aren't enough to describe experience.
