You Might Be An Empath If...
I (Peter) spent the first 25 years of my life unaware that I was an empath.
Growing up, I was an extremely sensitive kid. I learned to suppress my emotions because as a man, it was deemed a sign of weakness. I thought the anxiety I was experiencing was normal and that others were experiencing the same feelings as me.
I had so much empathy for others, but I didn’t have empathy for myself. I never questioned why I felt this way and accepted that was just the way it was.
I struggled to say no and resorted to people pleasing tendencies because I thought I would make myself feel better if I made others happy, and they would like and accept me as well.
I didn’t feel comfortable in my own skin and struggled being in large crowds because It felt extremely overwhelming, and I didn’t feel I could fit in being myself.

Growing up in a home environment with alcoholism and domestic violence, I always felt on edge and that I needed to protect myself. I did everything possible to avoid conflict because I would feel guilty if I upset anybody.
It wasn’t until I realized I was an empath in my mid 20s that I started becoming AWARE of why I felt the way I did for so many years.
When I started understanding that being an empath was actually a GIFT, and that it was through societal conditioning and childhood trauma that my inner child felt unsafe + misunderstood how to use that gift to benefit me growing up... I started to have empathy for myself and began my healing journey.
