I'm OK with being affected BTW, I think the world needs more people like us frankly! But yes sometimes it gets to be too much and a person has to make sure they are taking care of themselves first.

The 3Am thing sucks, my time is 5 AM, I asked t about that before and she said there is a reason you keep waking at that time. I looked it up online and it is about my health a warning.
I think the world needs more HSP too Mars, the more understanding we give each other the better.
Thanks for this!
