I think quite a few members here may score quite well. How many "always" answers apply to you?!

I'm a full-fledged empath :D .

Some of the questions seemed like sensory processing issues and introversion to me. I agreed with all of those types of questions. If you knew me in real life, you wouldn't think I'm an empath, but I'm glad I have at least some empathy :D .

Perhaps a lot of people like you have so much empathy they have to protect themselves by "hiding the light under a bushel".

Maybe! That seems quite plausible, actually :D .

"Full-fledged Empath
You are wide open to picking up emotions and/or physical sensations from others and absorb them into your own body. You don’t have the usual filters that non-empaths have, so you feel everything! You are capable of deep love, intuition, creativity and connection with others, but must learn how how to set clear boundaries and not over-give. If you are undergoing a lot of stress in your life, you may be aware of becoming extra-sensitive and empathic, so you need to practice an increased amount of self-care. Your challenge is how to stay open and loving but not try to “fix” others or take on the stress of the world into your own body."

"You are wide open to picking up emotions and/or physical sensations from others and absorb them into your own body".

Nope.

"You are capable of deep love, intuition, creativity and connection with others".

Nope.

Pretty much none of that statement relates to me.

Yeah- it is :lol: . My teacher last year said that being an empath was extremely hard. Try being autistic! :D

Oh yeah- it's a known fact that all ferrets are empaths :D .

If you met me in person, you wouldn't believe it was me! :D I'm like a completely different person here in terms of expressing myself.

No, no no. It isn't "empath" test. It's a "highly sensitive person" test, with questions spelled differently , simillar to that one http://hsperson.com/test/highly-sensitive-test/

My result is "Strong Empath".
