Empaths - how are you dealing?

Same here.

I'd like to empathize with your blockheaded constant stupidity but I just ate.

Agreed.

The last 3 weeks of my life have been probably the toughest weeks ever to deal with. The vibe is still not up-to-par after Sandy. I wonder if it ever will. It's really hard to keep light and vibration up. No one seems interested in doing so. Many are just going by and doing their everyday lives.

I can't shut down. I refuse to allow anything to pull me down or shut me down. But it's very intense dealing with it every day. The hardest it's ever been. Even harder than the aftermath of 9/11.

Agreed. I just took 3 sleeping pills to try to get some sleep and stop feeling for a little while. I never take anything but I haven't been sleeping or eating for 2 days. This is rough and it seems to be affecting every single thing. I am trying desperately to stay in my light but it seems that there is so much against it right now.

I'm speaking about all around hurt, not just this, at all. I am well aware of all of those kids as well. My point was that it is all around, everywhere, every aspect and it is suffocating....and I've felt this way for quite some time, not just since the 14th.

Shutting it out, other than focusing on the evidence that it was a total set-up.

It's possible to focus our attentions on Universal love and feel the joy of the. Not always easy, but necessary to stay sane.

Anyone feel a wave of something really nasty in the middle of last night? I literally woke up shaking in fear. Something I have never done before.

I do. I'm not trying to burn out either, I'm trying to get past it all and stay positive. It just isn't working.

That's what I am trying.

I was up most of the night last night...extremely shaky, as has been the case all day.

Pls ignore the religious nut. He can take his sanctimonious crap to a different thread.

Left NYC 4yrs ago. Excellent circus to learn how to manage it. Now near Rocky Mountains. Big change of energy to come here. Since the CT event and shortly before, felt a huge shift. Many folks around me are losing it and i feel like a bouyant ship with wrecks circling. Not easy for sure, but i suggest other empaths focus on helping others cope without getting sucked in. Contributing to the healing and balance of others, done with caution, can help you center your own inbalances.

I'm an empath, but only regarding hot girls. I feel them.

I really don't care much for kids - or guys. They will or won't take care of themselves. Girls need to be taken care of.

My breakdown:

I've transferred the same feelings, and intensity of emotion from what I've witnessed so far. Much in the same way the intensity stops in cinema, because of the movies distinctive ending - Sandy Hook's feelings also come to an abrupt halt.

Tragic events have a tendency to taper off slowly. It takes a good while for the collective psyche to reconvene at an a neutral, or calm, state.

Thing is, perhaps we are all being conditioned to take these types of events as ordinary. Even though the intensity of the damage that was caused here was so extreme, I feel like our collective is acting inappropriately.

We should consider that this was all staged. We should also consider the reality of this crime - which did include victims.

yes, focus on what you can control and not what you can't. and keep moving on.

Luckily I was travelling when it happened and had no access to tv. I have not followed it at all. I hate lies and deception.

Check out my comments for you on your other thread re energy sensitivity. Again, your HS can help with *anything* at the energy level including blocking out/transmuting unwanted energies from anything and anywhere.
