My empathic blessing-curse regularly forces me into agoraphobic reclusiveness. I totally understand. I think the key is to direct all of that overpowering empathic energy into creative/productive pursuits, so that you are actually TRANSMUTING those emotions into something tangible and valuable. For me, as a relatively new Steemian, SteemIt is providing an excellent way to BOTH be a hermit AND be productive (and earn some survival money), and so this is a step in the right direction. That is, I don't need to go outside to participate in, and benefit from, SteemIt. The again, is it REALLY that important to go outside every day? Especially in these crazy times??? Upvoted and followed...

Steemit has been a great outlet for me! Like therapy but instead of paying someone for it, I get paid!
