Overview

Online survey revealed high empathy correlates with elevated stress and suicidal thoughts in participants, suggesting emotional coping strategies need attention.

Key Points

  • High empathy is linked to increased stress levels, with higher anxiety and depressive symptoms observed.
  • Participants with high empathy showed significant differences in emotional coping strategies compared to those with low empathy.
  • A correlation was noted between empathy and emotional regulation, particularly among those who sought psychiatric help.
  • Subjects with high empathy are at risk of suicidal thoughts under high stress, particularly if they have a history of seeking mental health support.
