Traits of an Empath

1. Often quiet but emotionally expressive most of the time. 
2. Some empaths have gotten so use to blocking emotions that they may seem the opposite from what an empath should be. Possible at times not wanting to be touched even by those closest to them. Often not feeling like being out in a crowd but rather alone or in a small group. 
3. Uncontrolled empaths can often spend more time focused on others and ignoring their own needs. Empaths often put others first. 
4. Empaths often avoid tense or harsh situations. They may shrink away from any situation that proves tense. 
5. Empaths are emotionally sensitive to violence and general chaos. Yelling... oh yelling is not an empaths favorite to be in the midst of. Now let me say that some Spanish people tend to talk loudly any way but this is not a bad thing for empaths if the emotions are positive ones. 
6. Empaths can often feel something as they see it happen...for example, seeing someone cut their finger an empath may sense the pain as it happens. 
7. Distance does not affect what an empath feels and often you may be able to feel or sense something going on with someone at a far distance. 
8. Empaths are sensitive to loud noise. 
9. Empaths are sensitive to various television programs. In particular, television programs that depict emotional drama like the news and police shows as well as movies which depict certain emotional or harsh situations. 
10. Empaths have a hard time understanding cruelty and criminal acts that involves hurting others. 
11. Empaths are super sensitive to suffering in the world and are often idealists who theorise about fixing the worlds problems. 
12. Are often found working as volunteers, with people, animals or the environment.
13. Empaths are often drawn to areas of music or the arts. 
14. Empaths are often very charismatic and have the ability to draw others to them. They often find that a complete stranger will tell them their life story while standing in line at the grocery store. 
15. Are great listeners as they generally have an interest in other people and to know more of what they already sense of a person. 
16. Can seem very moody with drastic mood swings. This is mainly due to picking up the emotions of others without realizing it and then with those emotions reacting to others.
17. May have experienced other paranormal experiences such as out of body experiences, De Ja Vu, observed a ghost, and just knowing things, as well as other psychic abilities. 
18. Empaths often have trouble focusing and space out/day dream often.
