If you're able to feel people's energy, then you're likely an empath / highly sensitive person. Unless your own energy is strong, or you're shielding in some way, it is easy to get overwhelmed by others' energy. I tend to avoid crowds if I can, although I am stronger now in myself to not allow others' energy into my own field when I do find myself in such situations.

I see Erin posted a link to her article. I'd recommend reading that for one strategy to deal with this. Also Google empaths and highly sensitive people for more information.
