"My childhood was very difficult. My dad died in my arms when I was 14 and my mother was physically and emotionally abusive. We were poor, dysfunctional and quite unhappy. Maybe it was my own struggles that led me to know when I was 12 that what I wanted to do in life was to help other people suffer less and laugh more.” Lindsay Kenny

Sensory Overload and Highly Sensitive People

Therapist and author Julie Bjelland notes "Sensory Overload tends to be one of our biggest challenges as HSPs.

"It is when our senses take in more information than our brain can keep up with processing.

"It is often the culprit of symptoms of emotional reactivity, anxiety, irritability, sleep issues, exhaustion, and even loss of productivity, creativity, and focus."

People say it can feel like "Someone turned the volume up on everything."

"It’s like I can’t handle one more thing in my head."
