10 Shocking Triggers for Empaths Revealed!

10 Shocking Triggers for Empaths Revealed!

As I’m sure you’re more than aware, depending on how an Empath is feeling will depend on what face they show to the world.

They can be prone to mood swings, especially if they’ve taken on too much emotional energy, and in some cases, they might appear quiet or even miserable (and that’s without being triggered,) simply from being emotionally overloaded.

I have discussed trauma triggers for an Empath in the past, but today I want to focus on some other causes and reactions an Empath might have from being triggered; for example, having a reaction that incites a spur-of-the-moment wave of anger or simply a spike in their emotions.

Getting triggered is not something unique to an Empath. Everyone gets triggered at some point, that’s just part of being human.

For an Empath, however, these triggers can be things that most other people wouldn’t be affected by, and it might be puzzling to them why they happen.

So, that’s what we are going to look at in this list of 10 ways to trigger an Empath. And the first one is:

  1. Having Their Energy Bubble Invaded

When you step into an Empath’s energy bubble, or come too close uninvited, they will not appreciate it, whether you are a stranger or not.

Empaths tend to protect their personal space for the reason that anyone stepping into it can trigger a reaction. This in itself can be enough to spike their emotions in weird ways.

  1. A Workout Intrusion

Many Empaths find it puzzling why they dislike their workout space being entered, especially when they are in places like the gym.

So, the answer here is, when an Empath is expending their physical energy, perhaps feeling out of breath or having their muscles overtaxed, anyone else’s energy creeping in can just be too much, which could trigger an overexaggerated emotional reaction such as anger.

  1. Overly Loud Voices

Being highly sensitive, as most Empaths are, means they are also sensitive to sound.

A loud voice, generally a stranger’s, can be triggering in the same way emotional energy can be to them. The voice does not have to be angry or using profanities to be triggering, just being raised is enough to get an Empath irritated.

  1. Seeing Others Being Treated Unfairly

An Empath will generally look out for the underdog or anyone in need. So, if they bear witness to cruel or bullying behaviour, whether that be on TV, the internet, or in person, it can trigger them in unpleasant ways

  1. Being in a Busy Place

Places like shopping malls, supermarkets or stadiums, where there are lots of people around, can activate the Empath’s shadow side, even if the other people aren’t standing close by.

When they pick up on too many emotions, coming from others, all at once, it can prompt a reaction that can lead to anything from anger to anxiety.

  1. Not Getting Their Quiet Space

An Empath has a need for solitude. Fact!  If they don’t get quiet time, they don’t get chance to recharge and reset.

So, if someone arrives in their quiet space, unexpectedly, or takes them away from having their reset time, it can activate them in some negative ways.

  1. Overly Narcissistic People

Although kind and often very tolerant of others, Empaths do not like to be around overly narcissistic people, who put themselves first and refuse to consider anyone’s feelings or points of view, other than their own.

If they have to spend too much time with a narcissist, they may end up snapping and showing hostility or rudeness towards them, when this is not normally one of their traits.

  1. Negativity

The life’s complainers, or those who constantly look for faults in the world, will make an Empath deeply uncomfortable and can provoke a triggered response when they are in their presence.

It can almost feel suffocating for an Empath to be around those who seem to prefer being in a negative space to a positive one.

  1. Inauthenticity

I first wrote about this back in 2015. See here!

When an Empath comes across fake people, it is common for them to shut down as a form of protection.  This can be seen as stumbling over words, or one’s memory and thought process being affected. Anyone who is not emanating truthful vibes will put an Empath on high alert and trigger them in unusual ways.

  1. Too Much WIFI

This is one of those weird situations where many Empaths have no idea what is making them react in a negative way, especially if there is no one around them. But, electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs), created from wireless technologies, are everywhere, in some places, much worse than others, and can be unusually triggering.

EMFs can disrupt the body and energy field. In fact, the symptoms of EMF overload are similar to those an Empath might experience from emotional energy overload and can incite an uncomfortable physical and emotional reaction, or simply make them more irritated than usual.

So, there you go, some food for thought.

Being triggered is no bad thing. As I said, everyone experiences it at some point, by the many challenges of life. But by avoiding any unnecessary situations, that we know to be triggering, will always be more beneficial to our health and happiness in the long run.

For example, perhaps choose to go to the shops or gym at quiet times, try to limit time spent with the negative people, and use earphones when in noisy peopled places. In fact, I have a post that will help with all the above here. 

If you find there are some other ways you get triggered as an Empath, or ways to help, please feel free to share in the comments below. After all, this blog is a place to help Empaths better understand who they are and what they experience.

Until next time.

Sending love.
