Highly sensitive person

Individuals with heightened sensitivity to physical, emotional, or social stimuli, often processing sensory data more deeply due to a biological difference in their nervous systems. This trait, known as Sensory Processing Sensitivity (SPS), was popularized by Dr. Elaine Aron in the 1990s and includes characteristics such as deep processing of information, high emotional reactivity, and sensitivity to subtle stimuli. Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) often benefit from environments that minimize overstimulation and support their need for reflection and emotional processing.
