Lastly, without thinking, choose the picture you're gravitating towards:

When someone is going through something troubling, all you want to do is help them work it out. You aren't one to brush things off, and you wear your heart on your sleeve. Everyone looking for advice or a shoulder to lean on naturally gravitates to you. While it can take a toll sometimes, you find solace being alone or when you can take time to thoughtfully and quietly reflect. That really recharges your batteries.

True Empath!

Your empathetic nature complements your outgoing personality perfectly. You have the unique power to find the silver lining in just about anything, and you firmly believe that sometimes distraction is the best form of catharsis. While others dwell on the small things, you like trying to take in the whole picture to make sure you can fully process what's going on. You believe in the healing powers of movement and nature, and you love sharing these things you hold dear with those around you who need it.

Jovial Empath!

You know how people are feeling by just glancing at them. It's just one of those strange things that you've always been able to do. Sometimes, people don't even know they're feeling the way that you know they are! That's how spookily tuned in to other people's emotions you seem to be. What's more is that you're equally tuned in to your own emotions. This makes you an excellent communicator because you can somehow always articulate how you're feeling.

Clairvoyant Empath!

You aren't one for the gushy bits of human emotion. That being said, you can't shake when there is turbulence in the vibes around you. You prefer to address this quietly and secretly if you can. You enjoy doing anonymous acts of kindness and hate getting roped into "a whole thing." You don't desire the recognition that other empaths do.

Shadow Empath!

There are some days when you really feel vulnerable to the entire spectrum of human emotion. Other days, it's hard for you to cry at a Pixar movie. Because of this, you're never irrational in your ways of thinking, and always give big decisions a few days to think over. You encourage other people to do the same. While you may get caught in the heat of the moment sometimes, you know that the tides will shift again, giving you a unique perspective on feelings.

Evolving Empath!

Sometimes, it's said that the opposite of an empath is devoid of emotion or sympathy. That's not true. You have trouble reading people and tend to feel awkward in emotional situations. You don't get worked up very quickly, which means you're great in incredibly stressful situations. You show you care in other ways, and know that sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for another person is just to be there when they need it.
