HSPs cry easily.
HSPs cry all the time.
In this episode, I talk about my problem with the statements like the ones above, and whether or not HSPs really DO cry "a lot" or not.
I also discuss the difference in crying in a ranking situation versus a linking situation (the concept comes from a great blog post by Dr. Elaine Aron.)
