highly sensitive person

• insanların %15-20'sinin bu grupta olduğu, bu gruptaki insanların %70'inin ise introvert'ler olduğunu not eden bir blog yazısı, kendisi de hsp olan susan biali tarafından yazılmış: http://www.susanbiali.com/…itive-hsp-introvert.html
  
  çevresinde olup bitenlere, etraftaki insanların duygularına karşı algıları aşırı derecede açık olan bu insanların, asperger sendromlulara benzer zorluklar yaşadığı dikkat çekmiş. bu konudaki bir soruyu ise susan biali şöyle yanıtlamış:
  
  "i didn't know much about the autism spectrum when i started writing about hsp, but the more i read about it, especially with respect to asperger's, the more i wonder about a link between the two.
  for example, when i read aspie blogs, especially when they complain about a world full of neurotypicals, i can absolutely relate.
  
  one main difference that i understand - and i'm not an expert - is that people with asperger's have challenges understanding social cues, reading facial expressions etc. hsp's on the other hand, as i understand them, are exquisitely sensitive to these kinds of cues.
  
  for example, i'm so sensitive to the slightest nuances of conversation and tone that it can be incredibly uncomfortable - sometimes i'd rather not be able to read what's under the surface!
  
  i believe this is quite a considerable contrast to someone with asperger's. if you have asperger's, i'd love to hear your thoughts and about your experience. i have a feeling we're very close neuro-cousins!"
