What are the 7 main strengths of hypersensitive people?
1. We live everything more intensely
When someone asks me what it's like to be hypersensitive, the first thing I want to answer is that it makes me feel more alive. When a detail doesn't suit me, it can take on enormous proportions. But the opposite is also true: everything is more beautiful and everything can make me happier. I have this feeling of living stronger and more intensely. My personality means I marvel at everything, and for that reason alone, I am happy to have this temperament.
2. We have heightened senses
Our senses are also sharper because we pay attention to all the subtleties of our environment, for example, I focus a lot on my interior design (color combinations, fabrics, etc.). This is valid for different areas, because I can easily imagine and visualize things.

3. We are resilient
Since we are often confronted with our emotions, we have a greater power of adaptation and resilience. I therefore understand certain situations better because I understand all the nuances associated with them. But even beyond this adaptation, a hypersensitivity that we have learned to live with, will allow us to overcome the trials we go through.
4. We have more sincere relationships
In a social context, this is a great asset because we are more attentive to others. We have great empathy and often put ourselves in other people's shoes, because of this, our social ties are often stronger! Relationships with others are more often based on listening and caring. Moreover, thanks to this instinct, I can more easily distance myself from toxic relationships and narcissistic perverts, which is obviously a blessing.
5. We truly know ourselves
Hypersensitivity allows us to understand ourselves better because we are constantly in introspection. We make choices that correspond to us better because the "pros" and "cons" are weighed meticulously. Recently I had to make a choice that would have a big impact on my life. I took me time to think about everything that would be involved, but now that my decision is made, I have absolutely no regrets about my choice!
6. We are often perfectionists
Attention to detail is often an ally, especially in a professional environment. We will do everything to make our work as perfect as possible, even if it means spending more time on it. Our tasks will always be analyzed, performed and checked (several times). This is a real plus that distinguishes us and makes us feel good, a job well done reassures us. Besides, I have often been told that I have an eye for detail, and I find it a real strength to be so meticulous!
7. We are very creative
We are easily drawn to an area where we can use it because creation gives our hypersensitivity a means of expression and even an outlet. It allows us to regulate our emotions more easily. The truth is ideas constantly run through our minds, and we often have a more avant-garde take on things than most people.
How did I learn to accept myself?
For many people, hypersensitivity is a weakness, but for me, itās the total opposite and deserves to be celebrated! As a hypersensitive person, I make it my strength every day. I bet youāre asking how I do this? Well, simply by not fighting against what I feel. Instead, I attempt to identify and understand my emotions, so that I can feel more comfortable with them. Being more in tune with my sensitivity also allows me to identify the moments when I will break down. Depending on the context, either I let myself go, if I am surrounded by caring people, or I isolate myself. This way I can evacuate what Iām feeling and move on. I also try to always listen to my intuition because it never deceives me. It helps me to make the right decisions and to be at peace with my choices.
