I'm new to the site, but I am a sensitive. I've known it for a long time but denied it to myself. I am an empath, and am working to strengthen my claircognizent abilities. Very often, I just "know" information I have no reason to be aware of. I cannot see or converse with spirits, but I can pick up bits of information - especially emotions. I have an introductory post on the site where I detail things a bit more. Right now, I'm still a newborn when it comes to recognizing and making use of my gifts.
And I'm both comforted and amused by a few things I keep seeing in posts regarding sensitives: headaches, fatigue/weakness, and insomnia. I have been plagued by all of these since adolescence but my doctors could never find any real medical reasons for any of them. I have suffered 2 head injuries, so "maybe" that's where the migraines stem from, and the insomnia...but then again, maybe that's from depression or anxiety, or blah blah blah, ad nauseum. I've been on so many medications for these problems it's insane, but none of them ever helped fully. At one point, I was one three different meds at once to try to make me sleep, and I STILL couldn't sleep! Now, when I can see a bigger picture to it all...I take no meds and can sleep, although sleep is still frequently disrupted. And the unexplained fatigue has gone as well - once I started looking outside the biological for a reason. I began to understand I was so tired because I was not protecting my energy, and it was being sucked off me in large amounts. Once I began to deny the open drawing of my energy...well hey, the fatigue's gone! So is the constant sadness, anxiety, fearfulness...all those bad emotions I lived with for so many years.
