"Don't take it too badly"... What kind of personality is someone who often hears this kind of remark?

Hmm..

I don't hear it often, but I sometimes hear the phrase "don't take it the wrong way."

But I thought I wasn't particularly sensitive.

 

However.. I tend to expend a lot of emotional energy.

Furthermore... upon observing the signs below...

Why are there so many things that suit me?

 

Was I a sensitive person? Haha...

Thinking a lot, paying attention to details, empathizing well, disliking negative feedback, and...

Kind and attentive, also good at catching what others might miss...

 

Well... since there are many advantages... even I didn't know that I was a sensitive person...

I should think positively.

A very sensitive person, has many flaws but also many strengths.

The concept of a "Highly Sensitive Person" was introduced by American psychologist Elaine Aron. According to her theory, 15 to 20% of the population falls into this category.

Biologically, sensitive individuals receive more internal and external stimuli. Several studies have shown that the activity of brain regions related to attention, emotions, behavioral planning, decision-making, and intense internal experiences is more active in these individuals.

In reality, very sensitive individuals are praised for their creativity, fairness, and ability to lead teams in unique ways. However, they tend to experience emotional exhaustion.

Situations that would cause moderate stress for most people can lead them to overthink excessively. If your emotions are so intense that you feel confused and unhappy, consider how you might turn these traits into strengths.

To do that, you first need to understand the unique personality traits of sensitive individuals. Based on information from the American psychology specialty media 'Psychology Today,' I have summarized signs that indicate whether someone is highly sensitive.

When feeling pressured, one may freeze = It can be anxiety-inducing to complete work within deadlines, and expressing one's opinions in meetings can feel terribly daunting.

When tasks pile up, it becomes overwhelming to handle. Therefore, it is very important to find ways to manage your time so you are not overwhelmed by too many stimuli.

Good at empathy = Sensitive to detecting others' emotions, needs, or anxieties. This has been scientifically proven. It has been revealed that sensitive people have more active 'mirror neurons (nerve cells)', which play a role in understanding others' emotions.

People with high emotional intelligence and empathy are skilled at communication, conflict resolution, and inspiring others. Conversely, they may also try to please others or prioritize others' needs over their own work.

I often hear the phrase "Don't take it the wrong way." Sensitive people tend to react more strongly to situations. While others can easily brush things off, you might wonder why you are more affected by your surroundings and whether you are reacting too sensitively.

Thinking a lot = having good self-awareness and generating original and creative ideas. On the other hand, there is a tendency to overthink and analyze everyday events, which can lead to self-consciousness and self-criticism.

Dislikes negative feedback = reacts more strongly to criticism. Therefore, they go to great lengths to avoid criticism, such as working excessively until they are exhausted.

Making careful decisions = being afraid of making a 'wrong' choice makes it difficult to make decisions. This is because they are conscious of how their decisions might affect others or how others might perceive their decisions.

Values details = has excellent insight. Understands detailed aspects and notices even the smallest changes. A meticulous personality is used positively in many situations.

They are very sensitive to others' likes and dislikes, which allows them to quickly win over friends or allies. However, if this tendency is not carefully managed, it can become perfectionism. Remember that perfection is not always good.

Being kind = Often praised for being polite, courteous, and having a clear understanding of right and wrong. Honest and keeps promises well. Easily gets annoyed because of uncooperative colleagues who do not share the same personality or values.

Recognizes what others overlook = reacts very sensitively to external stimuli such as background noise or disturbances and handles them accordingly. Therefore, aspects that others do not notice can be a significant issue for sensitive individuals.

Good at problem solving = dedicated to assigned tasks. Always pays attention to the environment, detects conflicts, alleviates issues, and seizes new opportunities.
