When you are just a regular person dealing with your emotions can be hard but what happens if you are picking up the feelings and emotions of everyone around you? How would this affect your own emotions and your own mental health?

This is what it is like for people that are empaths. This is a gift from the universe that can be both good and bad. Being able to know what someone is thinking, or feeling can help you know what is going on and it can help you with different jobs and in different circumstances but what about when you become overwhelmed by all of these emotions? It is then that this gift can feel like a curse.
