Are you HSP?

Here is a self-test to see if you suffer from HSP (highly sensitive person).

http://www.hsperson.com/pages/test.htm

If you flunk the above mentioned test then perhaps you should refrain from posting in forums where you aren't always going to hear what you want to hear because quite frankly, I’m sick & tired of getting kicked in the teeth for actually possessing a sense of humor.

    If you fail the test, you should probably become a hermit. (Or just grow a set)

    Is there some kind of patch that can be worn for HSP?

    They really should come with a warning label of some kind...

    I had this brief moment of conspiracy theory where I was like.....

    "He has spent the last several months reporting everyone he hates....now the people that "bullied him" have been dropping like flies in the past couple days.....and he has risen from the ashes. "

    But then that's not really what happened.

    IMO one can still be HSP and have a set of balls. It's just a matter of being smart about it IE not taking things personally, or with a grain of salt when appropriate, etc.

    On that note I barely passed lol :D

    Question from test:
    "I become unpleasantly aroused"

    - my first thought was: is this like an un-wanted boner or something? or is it kinky, like you become aroused by something unpleasant...

    Truth: I understood the question just fine, the dirty little voice inside my head just overuled logic.

    I failed the test. But I'm sarcastic and thick-skinned so I don't get it.

    I'm actually surprised I passed that test. I've always thought of myself as super sensitive ....

    But then I thought about above said poster (who will not be named by me) and realized I'm not all that sensitive at all. Although it was funny to watch him get all bent out of shape when told he was ...

    doing it wrong!
