Welcome New Listeners & Commonly Used Mental Health Terms: HSP, Empath, Trauma, Introverts, Extroverts, Neurodivergent

In this weeks show, we welcome new listeners and will explore various mental health terms used on the show, specifically focusing on Highly Sensitive People (HSP) and ways to understand, embrace, and love our highly sensitive selves. I will discuss topics such as sensory sensitivity, emotional and mental sensitivity, and theories about the cause of high sensitivity. I will also differentiate between introverts and extroverts, and how they recharge and get their energy. Additionally, I will explain the concept of high sensation seeking, which can be confusing for many, but is important to understand and accept for those who fall into this category. Furthermore, I will discuss neurodivergent, an umbrella term for mental or neurological differences, including those on the autism spectrum, and how existentialism has played a role in my mental health journey.
