Why do people have to think I'm weak for being a more sensitive person. I'm not pathetic and I'm not weak. I should be considered strong for all the **** I'm dealing with right now. Doesn't everything have its strengths? I just feel like the most inferior person in the world right now and sometimes I feel like everyone just wants to watch me suffer cause they enjoy watching me suffer cause I'm a piece of trash that deserves to be treated with hate and contempt. Not trying to put myself down just trying to express my strong emotions. I feel like I finally found the words to express how I feel. I'm just so angry and I don't even know how to explain what else I'm feeling right now. I just feel sad, angry, lonely and inferior to everyone else.

((((Hugs))))). Sensitivity is not weakness.... society creates this illusion, but in reality, it is a wonderful quality that makes you a special person, able to feel emotions deeply and experience life deeply. We need more sensitive people in this world. Perhaps people would be kinder in general if they were more sensitive, but toughness is rewarded and applauded instead... people protect themselves emotionally by being tough and insensitive on the outside, which is really just a defense mechanism.

Please don't hate on yourself. Be far kinder to yourself and have self-compassion for your state of mind. Try to look at yourself differently, and embrace all your good qualities. We all have strengths and weaknesses, no one is perfect in this world, but try to look more so at your strengths and good qualities than at any perceived weaknesses. It's good to be aware of them and to work on self-improvement for things you don't like, but not to focus on those primarily. Embrace self-love, you deserve to be happy and to feel good about yourself. (((((Hugs)))))))

I agree that sensitivity is not weakness. I actually consider it a strength more than anything. I'd rather be "too sensitive" (as I've heard I am on several occasions) than feel nothing. The world needs more warmth and less coldness. It's true...you are not pathetic or weak. I've felt like you many days. Hope things get easier for you soon.

I agree wholeheartedly

Sensitivity is not a "weakness"

I'm sorry you are having a tough time. I just went through the same thing on my thread I'm not ok. You're not alone. I hope you'll treat yourself with the kindness and compassion you show others. I'm sensitive to so I know what you're saying. Your sensitivity is a strength. Sending big hugs.
