Empathy is when you understand and feel what someone else is going through—it’s like stepping into their shoes for a moment. It helps us connect with others and be supportive.

Over-empathy, though, takes it a bit too far. It’s when you feel so much for others that it starts to wear you down - making you self sacrificing your own needs, boundaries and wellbeing. Instead of just understanding, you take on all their feelings as if they’re your own, and it can be really overwhelming.

So, empathy is great for building connections, but it’s important to find a balance. We need to care for others, but also for ourselves.
