Hugs, you’re not the only one. I have several people close to me like this and it’s so tough. Wondering what’s wrong with you etc. I have other areas in my life where I ask the same question and wonder why I can’t just “get on with it”.

Thanks for your raw sharing xx

Everything we feel is valid, Harneek.

Sensitivity is a good thing. At its core, sensitivity is responsiveness.

Feelings are always valid; they are one's truth. Interpreting them wrong is misguided, but feelings aren't for interpretation to begin with. They are best felt and acknowledged, not necessarily acted upon.

Wonderful poem!

Last, thanks for sharing that essay, Harneek. I appreciate very much.

Oh my gosh, Harneek. I was just appreciating and basking in your poem. Then I scrolled down and saw you'd shared my letter from last week. Thank you!

I'm quite sensitive to such things as well, Harneek. I've been dealing with social anxiety for a long time now.
