Maybe you've seen their shoulders tense and face crumple when someone uses the wrong pronoun, or noticed how deeply they feel every sideways glance. If someone you love is both highly sensitive and LGBTQ+, you know their world can feel both incredibly rich and sometimes painfully intense.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[No one had a name for high sensitivity when I was a child or adolescent. I was just an odd kid, the one who was always moody, who made a big deal and overthought things, who cried too easily, especially when a person or an animal was suffering. My peers mostly looked away when I was “having a moment.” My parents told me to suck it up (literally!) and wondered when I’d outgrow these behaviors that embarrassed and annoyed them. It was clear--my sensitivity wasn't accepted by my family.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[For many highly sensitive people, navigating friendships can be tricky territory. Because we tend to feel things quite intensely, overthink what we say and do, and sometimes over-connect with people in our attempts to show our affection, sensitive people struggle more with friendships. Moreover, you likely find that deep, meaningful connections are a non-negotiable need, and anything less can be unsettling or dissatisfying.]]></description>

I found this out the hard way with my first baby, who seemed to come into this world with higher needs than my friend’s babies. I joined the usual mom support groups: La Leche League, 'mommy and me' classes, and a new moms group at church. As I looked around, other babies seemed happy and peaceful; mine was irritable, fussy, and not at all pleased to be in the world.]]></description>
