"Must reading. Her balanced presentation suggests new paths for making sensitivity a blessing, not a handicap."â??Philip G. Zimbardo, Ph.D., author of Shyness: What It Is, What to Do About It
Do you have a keen imagination and vivid dreams? Is time alone each day as essential to you as food and water? Are you noted for your empathy? Your conscientiousness? Do noise and confusion quickly overwhelm you? If your answers are yes, you may be a highly sensitive person (HSP), and this is the life-changing guide you'll want in your toolbox. Over twenty percent of people have this amazing innate trait. Interestingly, a similar percentage is found in over a hundred other speciesâ??because high sensitivity is a survival strategy. It's also a way of life for HSPs.
Dr. Elaine Aron, a research and clinical psychologist and an HSP herself, helps you grasp the reality of your wonderful trait, understand your past in the light of it, and make the most of it in your future. Drawing on her many years of study and face-to-face time spent with thousands of HSPs, she explains the changes you will need to make in order to lead a fuller, richer life. Along with a new Author's Note, the latest scientific research, and a fresh discussion of anti-depressants, this edition of The Highly Sensitive Person is more essential than ever for creating the sense of self-worth and empowerment every HSP deserves. "Elaine Aron has not only validated and scientifically corroborated high sensitivity as a traitâ??she has given a level of empowerment and understanding to a large group of the planet's population. I thank Dr. Aron every day for her having brought this awareness to the world."â??Alanis Morissette, artist, activist, teacher

I believe in aristocracy, though - if that is the right word, and if a democrat may use it. Not an aristocracy of power... but... of the sensitive, the considerate... Its members are to be found in all nations and classes, and all through the ages, and there is a secret understanding between them when they meet. They represent the true human tradition, the one permanent victory of our queer race over cruelty and chaos. Thousands of them perish in obscurity, a few are great names. They are sensitive for others as well as themselves, they are considerate without being fussy, their pluck is not swankiness but the power to endure...
E.M.Forster, "What I Believe," in Two Cheers for Democracy
Ik geloof echter in aristocratie - als dat tenminste het juiste woord is, en als een democraat het mag gebruiken. Niet een aristocratie van macht [...] maar van het sensitieve, het attente [...]. De leden van deze aristocratie komen overal ter wereld in alle lagen van de bevolking door de eeuwen heen voor en als ze elkaar ontmoeten hebben ze aan een half woord genoeg. Ze vertegenwoordigen de ware menselijke traditie, de enige permanente overwinning van ons zonderlinge ras op wreedheid en chaos. Duizenden van hen gaan roemloos ten onder, slechts een paar zijn grote namen. Ze zijn sensitief voor zowel anderen als zichzelf , ze zijn attent zonder bemoeiziek te zijn, hun moed is geen bluf maar de kracht om te verdragen [...]. E.M. Forster, "What I Believe" in : Two Cheers for Democracy

But others will be affected in time, so their sensitivity can help you avoid problems later.
