How to Determine If You're An Empath

You can start by asking yourself some questions about how well you relate to others and how you physically and emotionally respond to big emotional events taking place in your presence. If you find that you answer "yes" to most or all of these questions, there's a good chance you're an empath:

• Do you find yourself taking on others’ stress?

• Have you been accused of being too sensitive in the past?

• Do you feel overwhelmed in crowded spaces?

• Would others describe you as empathetic?

Since there is no set criteria for whether or not you’re an empath, answering that question is entirely subjective and may ultimately come down to whether or not you believe yourself to be one.
