Yes. Sensitive to the point at which I feel like my skin is on inside-out. Weird image, I know- but that's what it feels like. I am constantly striving to overcome my hyper-sensitivity. And I'm not only sensitive for myself, I am also for others...including animals and any other living things. It can hurt even if inanimate objects get damaged or broken. I can't kill bugs or insects, except I will (miserably) kill black widow spiders because they are truly dangerous for people and pets.
I HATE being so sensitive; it means I'm in emotional pain all the time. I've been told that it's a gift, blah, blah...all it feels like to me is sensitivity to the point of mental imbalance.
As for perfectionism, I am extremely hard on myself. I do believe I learned that from my mom, though; she was a harsh perfectionist of herself and others, especially her children.
