this ever happen to you?

How do you deal with being an empath? I used to be ok with it but now I just absolutely hate it! I feel so used and tired all the time, my friends are emotionally draining and i cant have a good day because i just feel everything they are feeling... and ive shut myself off and I just feel worse. =l and i cant stop it because lately, i dont have to see people to feel what they do, i hear them. i hear them and this... reaction begins in me and i have to ask them whats wrong because when they speak they release this.. energy that burns! along my arms and on my face that hasnt ever happened before. is it because im trying to ignore my empath abilities that ive developed this hearing thing, if you wiil? Can anyone explain how to deal with being an empath when all you want to do is get away from the negativity of it all? =l I adore the positive aspect to it, when others feel joy so do I.. but this is rarely the case. Has anyone had any similarities with.. warm burning sensations around other people when they speak? like it resonates with what they say somehow?

Try to put up a mental shield to keep out the negitive energies?

I do.. but.. I guess you could say some things leak through. =l maybe it isnt strong enough. i mean im not really.. keen on shields either because it really disrupts my tarot card readings, for example, when I do not remove them.
