sometimes i hate being such an effing empath. and i don't mean empath in the common sense: i mean empath in  parapsychology. technically they call it clairsentience:

Clairsentience (feeling/touching)

In the field of parapsychology, clairsentience [From the French clair, “clear,” + sentience, “feeling,” ultimately derived from the Latin clarus, “clear,” + sentiens, derived from sentire, “to feel”] is a form of extra-sensory perception wherein a person acquires psychic knowledge primarily by means of feeling.

Generally the term refers to a person who can feel the vibration of other people. There are many different degrees of clairsentience ranging from the perception of diseases of other people to the thoughts or emotions of other people. The ability differs from third eye in that this kind of ability can not have a vivid picture in the mind. Instead, a very vivid feeling can form.

(from Wikipedia, underlines are mine)

assdfklfjlkfljfkhj; yes. i'm not really into the whole parapsychology thing, but i can't deny empath tendencies.

most of the time, i just sense how people feel. just being in close proximity with someone allows me to pick those feelings up. like right now. my senior's definitely bored. lol (i'm at work). sometimes, i can actually tune the feelings out, which is nice. but i don't have total control over my clairsentience, so sometimes, my senses pick everything up, and it makes me physically ill. (too many feelings!) oh the headaches.

most of the time, it's good to have the senses on. happy feelings=good day. this is the reason why i enjoy being with my friends a lot.

but sometimes i get so worked up over nothing. as it turns out, i absorb other people's negative feelings without meaning to. like today. my boss was full of major negative energy - mostly due to the fact that i'm resigning. i spoke with her today, and it gave me a headache. srsly. it's making my head spin. oh the pressures of being in charge, she has so many worries. i feel sorry for my boss, but i can't help but get a little pissed off with the level my empath senses are on. dammit. can't concentrate. can't channel the feelings out either, because i've already gotten a headache, and that means i'm doomed to malfunction for the next few hours.

there's a 98% chance that this post didn't make sense, considering the MONSTER headache i've got right now, but i need to channel out the unwanted feelings. GAH.

I NEED TO FIND SOMEONE, SOMEONE WHO IS DELIRIOUSLY HAPPY, TO TALK WITH RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE THIS HEADACHE WILL BE THE DEATH OF ME.

HALP!

wtf!wtf, wtf!argh, sentience overload
