Default Re: "Highly sensitive person"

Yes, I am definitely an HSP. I have read Elaine Aron's book and while it had some useful concepts in it, I didn't get a lot out of it. I kind of agree with Nick, putting 'labels' on people probably isn't a good idea although I think that sensitivity is most definitely a positive trait. Yes, if somebody is painfully sensitive than it can be negative but in an increasingly insensitive world, we definitely need more HSPs!
