Empaths. Might be real. Could be bullshit.

  I keep catching other people's emotions. Or maybe I don't, I don't know, the point is I'm sometimes decently accurate when guessing what someone is feeling, And I always feel like I'm picking up on their emotions whether I'm right or not. I know absolutely nothing about science, anatomy, or biology, but I do know that brains are incredibly powerful little computers all tucked up there doing god knows what so it makes sense to me that they could be subconsciously analyzing body/facial/auditory cues and interpreting them, and maybe I'm more aware of the process than other people. In short we're all empaths some of us just aren't paying attention. Does it sound less braggy if I say I would really like to turn it off? It's not that I don't care or don't want to help, it's just that I'm legit drowning in my own emotions without picking up everyone else's.

  I also feel like sending someone good vibes when they're down, trying to will them into feeling better, might be a real thing, but I'm crazy so don't quote me on that. At least it can't hurt to try.
