Highly Sensitive People in an Insensitive World: How to Create a Happy Life

I am 58 and have spent my life thinking there was something wrong with me. I become so exhausted after being in some people's company, get bored very quickly, despise routine and really struggle in groups! Now I know this is just normal for Hsp's, hooray! Loved this book, masses of insight and tips on how to manage your life more energetically. Soooooooo very empowering. This book has changed my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Ilse, amazing.

One of the best books on this subject, because it has been well researched, but is not academic - it is a highly readable book, and the contents feels spot on.

Interesting but does not go too deep. Good to read x

Amazing book to gain insight into introvert world

Interesting point of view, but it contradicts my beliefs that the brain can be shaped, and in the end leaves no hope to sensitive people.. Just a thought. Overall, is not a bad book to read but I would not go to deep into it.

This is a must for sensitive you will relate to it and understand why things upset you and how to deal with the people who say 'you are too sensitive'

Interesting stuff.

I liked this book. I am happy for any author to write on this topic as I think we need as much positive information on this subject from as many voices as possible. I liked the phrase 'the delicate soul' - there is so much good in it.

I am so happy, I got this book! It is must read for sensitive people

I borrowed this so many times from the library I ended up purchasing it. I was going through a divorce and had been told many times over the course of my marriage that I was "too sensitive". This book completely changed my perspective. I used to look at being sensitive as a bad thing and fought constantly to become "less sensitive" however, this book made so much sense of the things I didn't understand. I am now much more comfortable in my own skin and am I'm grateful for this book.

I like it the only point is that is too much mentioned in Denmark LOL us like who cares! There’s sensitive people everyone the world BUT the basic information is priceless well written and really important and accurate strategies on how to protect yourself.Love it!! And I will give it as a gift yo my friends for sure!

Having never understood why I am just different to other people in a lot of situations and having been like this since I can remember I finally understand WHY. At last I'm learning to accept myself and think differently about myself to learn a way of coping better. After years of struggling and having been through my most challenging situation for 2 years I hit rock bottom and searched for answers. I came across an explanation of HSP and knew it was me so looked for something more to read. This book is simple, uncomplicated and useful. My husband is now reading it too. My recent panic attacks and confusion and tears and self isolation is something he wants to help me get control of and understand how he contributes to my issues sometimes without meaning to or understanding why. A wedge had begun to form between us and I was considering counselling, but I have read this book and now feel we will be able to talk things through and improve things ourselves, together. Highly recommended.

Bellissimo libro, consiglio caldamente.
