Yes I’m a HSP. And at least one child. 😊

We’re making a whole club right here on Substack!

Oh my, yes! And I've always thought it was my fault (I can hear my mother practically hissing "Why do you have to be so sensitive???" when she was exasperated with my reactions).

That's two of us cousins wired pretty much the same. It makes me wonder if there are others of us ....

Well, I have an HSP daughter, and at least two HSP grandchildren, maybe more. We are hiding out there!

I can definitely relate to almost all of your HSP traits. I can’t begin to tell you how much strife looking at all sides of a situation or plan has caused me. I definitely used to think it was a personal flaw and that I just needed to loosen up or shut up. When I first read about that in your post on introverts I can’t tell you the relief and validation I felt. I’m not a pessimist or a downer. I’m an introverted HSP and that’s how my Father made me. Issues with that can be taken up with Him! 😂

We are two peas in a pod! Isn’t it nice to know someone gets it?
