Are you a highly sensitive person?

You may be a highly sensitive person.

What do my results mean?

Based on your answers, it appears you may be a highly sensitive person (HSP). Being an HSP isn’t a negative thing—it just means you likely feel things more deeply than other people and are more sensitive to external stimuli (like crowds and loud noises).

You may have been told as a child that you were “too sensitive,” and you may have needed more quiet alone time than your peers (and still do!). Sometimes you might find yourself getting overwhelmed in busy places or during a particularly hectic school or work day.

There are definitely perks to being an HSP, however. For one, it’s likely easy for you to develop deep, close bonds with other people. Also, appreciation for life tends to come naturally to you. You almost can’t help but be moved by the beautiful song you heard on the radio or that heartwarming video sent to you by a friend. And the small, fleeting joys that others often miss? You notice and savor them, which makes your life more fulfilling and rewarding

What do my results mean?

Based on your answers, it appears you have some highly sensitive traits, but maybe not enough to be considered a highly sensitive person (HSP). You might get overwhelmed by lots of stimulation sometimes, and maybe there are times when you experience your emotions more intensely than others. But these things don’t seem to happen consistently or to a degree where it significantly impacts your life.

Keep in mind that “highly sensitive person” isn’t an official mental health diagnosis. Rather, it’s a personality type that some people identify with. Ultimately, you know yourself best and get to decide what labels you identify with!
