Are you Overly Sensitive?

Post Reply New Topic

I am. If someone says something that I do not like I get offended here is an example.

Im in walmart looking at the fish in the fish section while my sister was in the bathroom. A guy who worked in that dept. came down the isle and said "do you need help?" in the dullest way possible, And I tried my best and said "oh no I was just looking" And he walked off into the bathroom and did not say "oh ok" or anything.....

I told my sister when she got out of the bathroom and she said "that was not rude your to sensitive!"

So yeah.....

what about you?

If I treated a customer like that at my job, I'd get in trouble for it. So I'd say at the very least it's bad customer service.

I'm very sensitive, have been ever since I can remember. I have a terrible habit of tearing up whenever I'm yelled at. So that's embarassing. Also, I get in trouble at work sometimes for being too emotional, but I'm an artist so I have a little more leniancy than most people do.

I am very sensitive as well. I have been told I can be overly sensitive. I have teared up when being yelled at. I have always been really sensitive. It's who I am.

Yup. I cry with anger every time someone yells at me or says very bad words with seriousness. Usually i get into the meltdown phase and then it becomes a shutdown. Then i am tired and go to sleep

Extremely. I'm a crier too which is pretty pathetic looking for a 21 year old to cry over small things. My family gives mean especially hard time about it.

I was always very hypersensitive but that is one more thing that anti depressants helped me with, that and therapy. I am able to get over it sooner instead of dwelling on it forever. I still have to intellectualize myself out of it though.

I'm overly sensitive as well, and I feel like that I always have been. For example, when someone yells at me, I feel the need to curl up into a ball. And, when people ignore my ideas, I feel really sad, and that I don't matter to the group that I'm talking to.

Yeah, if someones having a heated argument I need to get out of the same room or I kind of breakdown/feel ill. Same if I'm having an argument and it get's too dirty or loud I have to walk off.

I'm definitely sensitive to when I'm in a heated argument or getting criticism, but I will also cry if I deal with bright lights or loud noises. I try to control my crying but now I've learned to just let it come out so it will end faster. I would probably be fired if anyone saw that on the job.

I am, yes, I always take thing over the top and just wind myself up and get more and more upset.
