Have you been told that you are "too sensitive?" Do your emotions often feel intense or overwhelming? If so, you may be a highly sensitive person (HSP). HSPs are often empathic, intuitive, and passionate; but they can also struggle with strong emotions. This book will help you understand and balance your emotions, and reframe your emotional sensitivity as a strength—not a weakness.

Using skills from dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), this evidence-based guide will show you how to increase emotional resilience and learn to appreciate your sensitivity for the superpower it is! With this book, you'll learn to understand and regulate your emotions, "read" your body's physical responses to difficult emotions, and discover effective ways to self-soothe when the outside world feels overwhelming. You'll also find strategies to help you deal with difficult or challenging interactions with others.

Emotional sensitivity is a gift; but it's important to learn how to manage your emotions, so they don't get in the way of relationships and reaching your goals. With this book as your guide, you'll find the balance you need to be your very best.

The book is very personable. I feel seen through this book. Like, not all people experience emotions like I do?

The book captures attention effectively.

I like DBT, and have learned a lot from the book, "The high conflict couple." I wanted to find a book that had the same principles but could be applied to an 11 year old boy. I started listening to this to see if it would be good for my son who is a good kid, but sometimes has a hard time expressing himself when he is frustrated (like everyone at that age). It seemed okay. I didn't really like the emphasis on highly sensitive people, rather than just people, because I think it is invalidating. It is normal to feel strong emotions, and since validating is such an important part of dbt, it kinda seems like a step backwards, for someone like him who is just learning to deal with very normal emotions. Then it started getting into weird gender stuff. I know that some people feel like emotions are feminine, but for my son, I think that would be a new idea, and so it would again be invalidating and cause more harm than good. Also, anything that uses words like "assigned male at birth," is just not what I am looking for for my child. I want him to feel secure in his biology. He is male. He has a Y chromosome. His feelings are human feelings not male or female feelings, and not highly sensitive feelings... They are just human feelings. And DBT has some really good tools people can use to express and live with their human feelings. I just wish I could find a book that comes from that vantage point. "DBT skills for humans.".

Not what I was looking for...
