learning

I am a spiritual being who has spent all of my life learning. I underwent many violent and painful episodes and, in fact, am still being treated for PTSD. Everytime I was beaten, I use to say "that's ok - now I know how others who have suffered feel." I became a nurse and have come to the realization that I am an empath. I literally feel the emotions of others and many times, that is difficult. I have attempted suicide 3 times and been hospitalized. Please do not think I am crazy. I am still a nurse and live as well as I can. I am not interested in material objects but spend time looking and reading about people who feel as I do. That is very comforting to me. In fact, I became familiar with your magazine during one of the hospitalizations and a special social worker recommended it to me. She was right.
