 Are you a Highly Sensitive Person?

Find out by answering these questions below.

Instructions: Answer each question according to the way you personally feel. Answer Yes if it is at least somewhat true for you; Answer No if it is not very true or not at all true for you.

Scoring:

If you answered more than fourteen of the questions as true of yourself, you are probably highly sensitive. (Your trait is normal and innate and you share it with about 20% of the human race.) If fewer questions are true of you, but extremely true, that might also justify calling you highly sensitive.
