Helping others is probably a part of who you are, you can help them to recognize their emotions and the way they think and at the same time learn for yourself, I like to do both because I have multiple personality disorder and it can sometimes be hard for me to recognize my own problems. Looking outwardly can help me to understand myself a little better but I guess it can be a dangerous thing to when you don’t face your own convictions.
We can help ourselves through helping others. Empaths are good at reading micro messages and could be valued hypnotists which, is related to anxiety problems. The ability to read others well comes from being in unpredictable situations or environments. You might find that you have full or partial eye movements however, it takes time to discover your abilities. I have full eye movements and related behaviors. I am also quite autistic and have autistic behaviors, I’m obsessive, have compartmentalized memory and personalty traits.
Yes I do recognize and read other people emotions, I even experience their trauma. Surprisingly their are some people that I can’t even empathize with, these people have had very tragic and very traumatic lives! They say that if you think you can read somebody elses mind then you are clinically insane however, there is something unique about empaths in that on a subconscious level they can understand people very well, solve complex problems but at the same time lack simple problem solving ability. I’m not speaking for everyone here, just from my own experiences, everybody is unique and special, we all have our own gifts. I also hate my own flaws, I hate sin, I love nature and learning, I’m a bit of a perfectionist and I also feel a lot of guilt due to trauma.
Predictive thinking, looking at patterns of thinking, thought process’, philosophy, ideology, flawed and false beliefs, psychology, psychiatry, spirituality, physics and having a good broad knowledge of all disciplines helps you to understand people more intimately but I guess empaths pick this stuff up from their environments, plus some of it will be genetic.
