Jenny Lawson Quotes

I Was Always Shy. Writing Was My Only Outlet. Because I Always Hid In A Room, I Spent A Lot Of Time Watching People. When I Was A Small Child I Could Detect Hidden Body Language In Others Only I Could See. People's Emotions Rub Off On Me. When I Told This To My Therapist She Said, "Well, You're An Empath." I Thought, "No Way. Like Star Trek?" And She Clarified: Because I Am So Socially Uncomfortable, I Have Compassion For Others Who I Recognize Are Also Struggling. People With Anxiety Are Acutely Aware.
