The sensitivity quiz · With Heather Dempsey
Understand how you feel the world.
Honor what you need.
Empath, highly sensitive, introvert, or a blend of all three? Discover what really drains you, and what helps you feel at peace.
These three get mixed up all the time, because they overlap. Each one has a different root, though, and knowing yours changes what actually helps.
EmpathYou take on what other people are feeling, sometimes before they've said a word.
Highly SensitiveYour nervous system takes in more and processes it more deeply, the good and the hard.
IntrovertTime with people uses up your energy, and time on your own is how you refill.
There are no right or wrong answers. Check every answer that sounds like you: one, a few, or all of them. Go with your first instinct, and think about a typical week rather than just today.
