KEY TAKEAWAYS

• HFAs often overcompensate against the feelings they're experiencing internally, in order to achieve a sense of safety, and to make other people happy.
• The resultant effect of being a HFS, is that you spend your life making others happy, and don't ever seem to get that value back in return.
• HFAPs like to fidget, manifesting in things like lip-biting, nail-biting, and restlessness, and the constant checking of a phone.
• Awareness that we are making life difficult for ourselves is the first step to recognising the condition. Having the right mindset, and being open to hearing the truth is hard, but invaluable.

BEST MOMENTS

'Behind the big grin on my face, there was someone overthinking every move'

'All good on the outside, but on the inside a quivering mess'

'The emotional cost of being a HFAP is very high'
