Episode 37 - Linda Binns - When sensitivity leads to addiction: Life skills for highly sensitive people

Because of constant, intense sensory input, it’s easy for people who are highly sensitive to become over-stimulated. They often turn to alcohol or drugs to manage the sensory overload and emotional overwhelm. Although it’s tempting for those with the trait of high sensitivity to try to ignore it or silence it (such as with drugs or alcohol), it’s more effective to learn how to embrace the trait and turn it into an advantage. Although being highly sensitive can be perceived as a weakness, you can learn how to embrace it as a true strength.
