What about the trait Sensory Processing Sensitivity (aka Highly Sensitive Person)? Estimates are that it shows up in about 20-30% of the population. It’s not a physically observable trait…people who have this trait are often told they are too sensitive, to toughen up, not to take things so personally, etc. However, because of how HSPs are wired they have no choice. Their nervous system is wired to pick up sensory stimuli that others often miss. The initial north American researcher who named this trait is Dr. Elaine Aron.
