Part 3: Are you an empath as well?

I scored a 57 which doesn't surprise me.  I am an "extreme empath". I knew I was an empath but maybe didn't realize how much of an empath I am. I have always been an emotional person compared to many others in my life. I always tell myself that I care too much at times and in the end I get hurt. Some people say it is one of the best qualities the way I care so much, but in my opinion it has its downfalls.

This score shows that you are definitley an Empath. You sense things in a way that's different from the average person. You aren't just relating to someone's feelings, you are sensing them as your own. You likely get exhausted sometimes and wonder why, without realizing you are giving out too much positive energy and taking in too much negative energy from around you. While you are fairly balanced if you are in this range, there's no doubt you'd benefit from tools and resources to help you to use your EFP to be a benefit to yourself and the world. 

You are an "extreme Empath," as I would call it. You have the ability to soak in others' emotions without consciously knowing you are doing so. You sense the "vibe" of a room or place without visual clues (such as tears, yelling, or slamming of doors). More importantly, if you are scoring this high on the Empath Test, then you are extremely open to the pain and suffering of the world, and you likely get overwhelmed by trying to do too much or help too many people at once. If you don't get some tools and resources to help you, these extreme Empath traits can cause you to get very sick (chronic fatigue is extremely common among Empaths who score like this and don't have the tools to take care of themselves).

This is definitely me in a nutshell! I am always doing for others, and anything and everything for my kids! Sometimes I'm so exhausted I can't function and can't stay awake!

My score of 28 indicates that while I am not an extreme empath I am an empath. Tara Meyer-Robson says that I can sense other's feelings as my own and am likely to be exhausted frequently due to putting out a large quantity of emotional energy. I think that it is good to be an empath in the field of education but I can see how being an extreme empath could be too much for some.

This was an interesting test to see if I'm an empath.  Some of the questions right away I could score a 2 but for many of them I was a 0.  I did not have any 3's.  My overall score was an 18.  It was nice reading the score results as it verified that I should be taking care of myself and not to get overwhelmed.  It stated that I'm pretty balanced between helping others and setting good boundaries.  All good things!! 

I have some empath traits but I generally am able to maintain a balance between helping others and setting good boundaries.

Score was 25-50 range

This score on the Empath Test shows that you are definitely an Empath. You sense things in a way that's different from the average person. You aren't just relating to someone's feelings, you are sensing them as your own. You likely get exhausted sometimes and wonder why, without realizing you are giving out too much positive energy and taking in too much negative energy from around you. While you are fairly balanced if you are in this range, there's no doubt you'd benefit from tools and resources to help you to use your EFP (extra-feeling perception) to be a benefit to yourself and the world. 

According to Tara Meyer - Robson's empath test, I received a score of 28.  This gives me a rating of being an empath.  It states that while I am fairly balanced, that I am able to sense other's feelings as my own.  Learning tools and resources to help with having an " extra feeling perceptive" would benefit me by learning how to turn empathic senses on and off.  This will create health and happiness.
