Can there ever be too much empathy?
Under the help of a capable psychic medium, I discovered I have the natural tendency to pick up a lot of emotions from others. Eventually, bearing all the emotions are excessive and I confuse them as mine.
Empathy is regarded as positive by many, and I also value it as a wonderful life skill. I am also assuming empathy mostly translates into emotions, strong enough that we are noticing it's kicking in.
However, for me, feeling too excited or crying too excessively for any cause result in headaches, loss of sleep, and sometimes loss of appetite. The current method I use to remove excess emotions is praying. Can empath ever be too much for a person spiritually? Can this tendency be positively utilized in other ways?
