PROLOGUE
If you suspect that you may be a highly sensitive person, these pages will clear your doubts. This book is meant to be informative and support those of us who work “helping” others, as well as a call to parents, bosses or educators who interact with highly sensitive people.
First of all, we need to clarify that we all are sensitive, to a greater or lesser degree, but there is also a percentage of people who are highly sensitive, a factor that needs to be taken into consideration when educating, dealing with others, and living together.
The book is intended to make it easier for you to identify whether you possess the trait of high sensitivity, it is also essential to identify this trait in others since you could be a mother, father or brother of a highly sensitive person, or husband, teacher, or co-worker.
