I wonder if it is ironic to say that this article overwhelms me. This article speaks to me in so many ways, and it is both validating and kind of scary to see myself being described so accurately. I often worry about being “too much” for people; when I get excited about someone, or a situation, I want to be all in. I don’t like wasting time, and I want to give them or it all my attention and energy. Sometimes this pushes people away or makes me feel isolated. But it also allows for connections to be so much more fulfilling.
Maybe this article will speak to you too, or help you understand people in your life who sometimes feel like they are “too much.”
