Having a good level of emotional intelligence is practically required in order to function, keep a job, maintain relationships. I would think people with bpd have very low EQ. This makes me feel hopeless. 


I can't seem to talk to anyone face to face about conflicts or I'll immediately start crying. This is pretty much the main reason I only discuss conflicts online. 


Is it even possible for us highly sensitive individuals to have a high level of EQ?????
