Tragic or violent events on TV upset you!
This sign is something that empaths have in common with highly sensitive people (or HSPs), as watching tragic or even violent events being recounted in TV series, on the news, or in movies is going to have an impact on you, no matter if they are real or fictional!
It does not happen because you are too sensitive in general, but rather because you are dealing with a heightened amount of emotions that you are absorbing. And given the tragic nature of what you are seeing or even reading, you are going to internalize everything and feel it as if it were happening to you.
As a result, it is definitely possible that these events will affect you more deeply and intensely than they would any other person.
