Being Empathic Without Being Brought Down

Now, I know I’m tough as nails. My sister, The Mayor, does not agree.

I’m sensitive. (BS!)

Most things don’t bother me but a person who chronically complains, is forever sad, etc. tends to bring me down and keeps me in a similar rut.

Turns out we’re all susceptible to being tuned into someone else’s vibe. This Lifehacker article explains how to guard against that.

No one likes feeling lower than a storm drain, especially because someone next to you is feeling like a Ninja Turtle.

  1. If someone keeps being down, and its draining you, try to get them to talk about something positive. Or drop them for a little bit!
