Psychiatric/Neurologists please answer: Is there such a thing as hyper-empathy as many believe? Humans, please answer: Are your responses to life within conventional ideals or outside. If so, why? Everyone: Do you think emotional empathy can be learned? #empathy #humpday #ThxU

I think emotional empathy is a builtin. Chimpanzes get upset if experimenters give different rewards for the same tasks. A jaguar has been filmed taking care of a little monkey after eating its mother

Yes, I believe most folks have the capacity. I am asking about a disorder not the act of empathy. Hyper-empathy is paralysis in the face of anything, even killing your own mother and having a Jaguar nurse you back. That's nature. That's not about empathy IMO.
