I recently found out I am an HSP (highly sensitive person). I always knew I was extremely sensitive, but I thought it was due to childhood trauma and I didn’t know there was an actual term for it. Turns out it has to do more with temperament, which is kind of cool because it feels more manageable this way. 

After speaking with a psychiatrist about it, she let me know I have 0 emotional resilience and need to develop my self-esteem… and after dealing with it for 24 years, I’m ready to make a change. Only thing is, I’ve got no fucking clue how to do it. 

I started reading “The Highly Sensitive Person” by Dr Elaine Aron but was wondering if there are any good podcasts and other books? I want to dive in. Or if you have any good coping strategies do you mind sharing them?
