According to the two self-help/psychology books i've either read ("please
understand me" by kiersey) or heard much about ("the highly sensitive
person" by someone i forgot) that is a normal part of being a certain
personality type. I do that a lot too, but what annoys me is that i'm
constantly psychoanalyzing myself.
