Welcome to Judith Orloff M.D.

 

Greetings!

In this newsletter I'm excited to share with you a section from my new book  "The Ecstasy of Surrender" on empathic illnesses--the phenomenon of taking on symptoms that are not your own!

My life has never been conventional. I've never fit into the mainstream. I've gotten used to not reacting "like I'm supposed to." As a physician and woman, I get tired of people trying to fit me into some box that has nothing to do with who I am. That's why I was excited about writing my new book on surrender: the ability to be fluid and flexible during life's climaxes and lows. I want to be increasingly able to not clench, grasp, obsess, overthink, over control, fight with my life, or let my stubborn streak obstruct my spiritual expansion.

Empathic Illnesses: Do You Absorb Other People's Symptoms?  

In my new book, The Ecstasy of Surrender, I discuss empathic illnesses - those in which one manifests symptoms that are not their own. Many patients have come to me labeled "agoraphobic" with panic disorders, chronic depression, fatigue, pain, or mysterious ailments that respond only partially to medications or psychotherapy. Some were nearly housebound or ill for years. They'd all say, "I dread being in crowds. Other people's anger, stress, and pain drain me, and I need a lot of alone time to refuel my energy." When I took a close history of all these patients I found that they were what I call "physical empaths," people whose bodies are so porous they absorb the symptoms of others. I relate because I am one. Physical empaths do not have the defenses that others have to screen things out. As a psychiatrist, knowing this significantly changed how I treated these patients. My job became teaching them to center and protect themselves, set healthy boundaries, and let go of energy they picked up from others.
