Dr. Orloff’s Empath Support Community
Hi, I have never done this before, doing group therapy that is. I’m nervous telling my story. Here goes, I looked up groups for empathy because I feel Like I’m the only one, I haven’t been round another empath. I am raising a bi polar daughter and this is the hardest thing I have ever done. I am also in a relationship with a man that is lying to me. On top of all this I’m going to school. I am being pulled in so many directions that I want to give up. (Not suicidal) But run away and be alone. Any suggestions on what I can work on?
Hi. For long I have know that I am an empath and probably a starseed. In course of time I learnt to shield myself and cope with everything else, purely intuitively. Now I feel I need more guidance about what can I do to use my abilities for good and how do I do that as presently, most of my energy goes in shielding myself and at times listening (literally and also silently) to a few other people who I can’t avoid. I seek purpose and a better understanding of everything that comes with being an empath. I have read a lot stuff online, but it is mostly repetition of the same and not really helping me move and grow further. Your help would be really appreciated.
Love,
-K
Thank you for your quick response, I really appreciate. Im going to check it out for sure.
I wonder if there are support groups that don’t operate through Facebook. I am not someone that wants to go on Facebook and don’t think I will ever want this. It seems too public for me, I’m afraid.

Any other recommendations?
its best not to operate through facebook has they have a tenadancy to build a profile on you thats not good for empaths, hsps alike all sensative people need people with open minds and understanding
I just had a conversation with my therapist yesterday, and she labelled me ” empathy”, while she did for my on/off husband as ” narcissist”. It was my first time at the age of 47 to hear about these personality types. She encouraged me to do a research, and the findings were shockingly true, and matching my personality and that of my husband. The main purpose for seeking psychological help was becaue I knew i was different, i found it difficult to blend in most group situation, and i am more likey to be taken for granted and advantage of. I am highly intuative and super sensitive, but I feel deeper then most people. I can easily recognise bad people etc… just like everyone mentioned here.
Now I am in dilemma, because from my research and what I have learnt here, it seems as if there is no chance for these two types to succeed in marriage, let alone in long term relationships. In one article I read that the best is to start figuring out the ways to get out of the marriage. This is traumatising because there are kids involved. How do I drop a marriage just like that when there are little kids to consider? Please help me with an alternative way of dealing with a narcissist , and not separate from him.
I am an empath. Went 57 years of my life not knowing. Thought we all were the same but turns out I’ve been taking on others feelings all my life. No wonder I was so confused & off balance. Moreover I see clearly this is my lifes’ journey. I can love others really unconditionally. I go the distance to help them process. I’m a strong heyoka. The 1 thing I didn’t get was my journey was about loving myself as perfectly as I love others. Lots of childhood trauma & PTSD from loosing a child & 6 miscarriages. These events made me more empathic. I’ve always been precognition. I know what people are thinking & their motivations. It takes me 2words to determine a bad person. I’m Clairsentient where I just know. I’m Clairaudient. I’ve also seen things others don’t. I’m hoping to find a community that will help us sharpen our skills yet weed out those who don’t understand this is a real visceral experience.
Hi, I’m an empath that just escaped an Narcissist Husband. It is difficult to start over but worth it. He has poisoned the minds of my friends and his friends that dont know me. I seek others like me because I cant handle people dishonest right now. A support group would be GREAT! I am in tune with animals, people and the spirit world… would like to learn more!
I’ve known for about 2 months now that I am an empath, and I feel like I’m alone. I just don’t know anyone who is also an empath. I want someone to relate to.
I remember as a young child, I would beeline my way out of church. There were way to many people and too many feelings. Kids don’t have coping skills to deal with this stuff. I saw things my mother didn’t. I knew things as they were happening.
My Mom told me that my Nana was talking about a man in a tuxedo. I told her that doesn’t Nana recognize Grandpa? He has been waiting for her for 10 years. For 10 years my Grandpa came to me in my dreams, he was always chained down and I couldn’t reach the key to free him. I was closing in on 5 when he past. But he came to me one last time shortly after my Nana died, and we were sitting at my Nana’s kitchen table drinking tea and having coffee cake. He told me, he loves me but he can’t come to see me anymore. I never dreamt of him again. My Nana stopped by for quick hello as she waited for my Mom.
I have gotten drunk, just by being around friends who were drinking hard and I wasn’t having any alcohol. It took me a few minutes to get air and distance from the bar.
I have the ability to feel others pain, if I open myself up. I can walk into a room and bam, hit with anxiety and I realize it isn’t mine and I look around for the person, and protect myself.
I am scared of my son, he sucks everything from me, he is paranoid, misinterprets things, has severe ocd, anxiety and Tourette’s syndrome with rage. He was having one of his fits and I started to get my positive energy going the strongest ever, he came in and I pushed my energy to him, he fell to his knees. I don’t know how I did it, but I think I may have had an assist. I am scared to death my son is going to hurt me or my husband. I feel what he is about, and I worry that he is going to stay in his world and not have a life of love, kindness, tenderness, empathy, joy.
I have ability to ease other’s pain. If somebody says lets say the point to shoulder, I feel heat and touch it with one finger and find the spot, which normally isn’t where the pain stems from. I hit pressure points and have taken pain away from some people. One day, a coworker, who normally comes to me with headache, was having belly pain. I didn’t want to touch there, you weird factor. So I went behind where his pain was and I pushed energy through him. I did same thing to my husband, they both freaked out and asked me not to do that again. But the pain was gone.
I see auras but, never color, brilliant light, weary grey, and black.
My brother in law was in the hospital sitting with his wife, kids and my husband. I could see them, that was a first and only, but I told my brother in law to stop sticking his middle finger at me, cause he couldn’t believe I was seeing them. I also knew she was gone, and the life support was keeping her alive.
I love animals, and I hate to say it, I think I like them better than people. I talk to the animals like some crazy person, they don’t answer me, but it would be cool if they did.
I just admitted to myself what I have hid for years with a myriad of addictions. I am an Empath and a Highly Sensitive Person. Right now I’m kinda glad because this explains a lot about my life. But I am definitely functioning on a higher “frequency “. I’ve got to wind my life back too get to know myself and to fulfill my purpose. I do this through meditation. I’m somewhat apprehensive while processing this all. Basically I’m afraid.
Hey everyone hope everyone’s been receiving good energy lately. I’ve always felt like my intuition was weirdly higher than people around me. But this last year I’ve really tuned in to what is really going on. I believe I am a Empath because I can pick up on things without having any reasoning. I’ve seen things in my dreams before that involved my deep relationship at the time, and also friendships. About a week later the events that happened in my dream added up right when I saw it happen in front of my eyes. That was just one experience that changed it for me. Also when someone has a negative attitude I can’t deal with it as much as I used to. One day I came home from school and that day many a few people that I don’t talk to much were talking to me, and I came home and cried for no reason. But I really know that it had something to do with a few of these people. One of them is going through a really hard time and is sad. I feel it on a different level. Another one was just talking about a lot of people negatively and it just made me feel not the best. Overall this is a positive thing I am just now aware of more boundaries and me time! Also having people that are genuine around, and genuine as in doesn’t act , they have a good heart, non judgmental, honest and overall a good vibe. Those are my people! I love making sure everyone around me is good and am always there to talk about anything. Maybe I care a little too much sometimes, but it can be a good quality!
