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

Maybe one thing is to step back and observe your emotions instead of acting on them. Just feel and think about it, but delay action. That's one technique that has helped me to disassociate from some of my more destructive feelings and figure out how to channel them better.

This also helped me with weight loss. I feel hungry, but I logically know that I am fine and I observe the feeling and ponder its insignificance and my power to say not right now.

I've wondered for a very long time with that impulse control could be altered through a wide range of therapeutic attempts including medication and meditation. It did not work for my mother who did not seek help. I always have and at 57 I've achieved a minuscule nudge at best.
