i think im fairly high empathy (mixed bag imo) and im not sure this is true of me but im definitely willing to entertain the possibility
suspicion is that people who talk about Being X are just often like this independent of the value taken by X

reiterating what's already been gestured at abt 10x but yeah often "empath" as a claimed personality type (contrast with empathy/being empathetic or just perceptive/compassionate) is often an excuse for treating highly subjective "psychic" takes as a holy truth

to open that up a bit from woo perspective, a lot of the time these people are pretty bad "psychics" because real intuition is frequently extremely egoless and ego-involvement destroys your ability to interpret signal in the noise

but to respond to your actual statement besides nitpicking charged connotations--I do think you're a pretty literally empathetic person, or at the very least quite thoughtful and if you have a strong self-image I don't think it's in the way aella is describing
