Hiya James. Welcome aboard. Nice to have you here. This statement you made above is a clear sign that you naturally cary the ability to perform Psychometry. Have you ever tried holding an object and seeing what you get from the object? Feelings, pictures, stories, ect? Experiment with it if you have not by having someone you trust and know give you an object you are unfamiliar with that has a history. First things that come to mind, feelings, ect., call out. See if you can get close. This is a very nice gift and I wouldn't doubt that you would be able to fully open that side up with some practice if you have not done so already.

The sadness is so overwhelming that I was choking back tears and had to get out of the area. Once I left the vicinity I was normal again in less than a minute. |
Learn how to shield yourself or unplug the emotion. Being an Empath has it's pro's and con's but you always have the ability to control it. Sounds to me like you've done a good job learning how to decifer what is your own emotion and what is not your true emotions. Just decifering helps a lot but when you no longer want to feel what another is feeling, instead of having to distance yourself, learn how to shield and you won't have to run off.
