Physical Empath

...See more Hey, I've recently come to terms with the fact that I'm an empath, I'm super sensitive to other peoples feelings particularly when I'm having a bad day myself, I feel like I just become a magnet for negative or sad feelings and I get drained super fast. I'm a very anxious person and I mostly avoid people because I get overwhelmed very quickly. Even more recently I've began to experience other people's physical symptoms, for example my cousin just started her period and I'm getting period pains too but I'm not due for another 2 weeks. A colleague complains of a headache and an hour later I've got a headache. My dad had an infection on his nose that was so painful for him and that same day I broke out in painful pimples outside and inside my nose. At first I passed the idea off as a coincidence but its happening more and more and my mental health is at an all time low which is why I think its effecting me so much. My question is, is anyone else a physical empath? I've not been able to find much information about it or how to manage it and I'm feeling really alone in this and I don't know what to do :(
