I'm hurting. Nothing new.
Dear everyone who doesn't understand my over~the~top emotions,
Just because I feel differently than you, or feel more than you doesn't give you the right to look down on me. I am sensitive and it's harder than you could ever, ever imagine. Who are you to judge that?
Who are you to exploit that?
Could you walk a day in these shoes? Caring is harder and more painful than most people could ever imagine. Would you make it if you cared like I do?
Chronic physical pain and chronic empathy have made me who I am. I wouldn't trade them, and I wouldn't wish them on my worst enemy.
The only person who can imagine it knows who she is. She is loved and her empathy rewarded every chance I get. I love her and we hurt together.
Could you hurt like I hurt?
I value honesty and empathy. I crave honesty and empathy. I thrive when surrounded by people who posses these traits.
Honestly empathetic, that's where it's at.
My emotions are not "dramatic", they are not fueled by a need for "drama".
They are real and they are mine.
It's one of the worst things you could ever say to me; that I like "drama". It's up there on the list. But....that list is long. It's like saying I thrive in discord. It trivializes my emotions. Don't do that. Don't ever do that. It isn't true and that's why it infuriates me. It isn't honest.
If you can't understand the thoughts and feelings of others, if you look down on them and use them to feel superior.....
what does that say about you?
