Some background about research behind high sensitivity as well as some good info for people who have this trait.

I relate:
"In brief, if you want to be sure you are dealing with a highly sensitive person, watch for signs of depth of processing. For example, their ideas are usually well thought-out. If they suggest where to go for a hike, they have probably considered the time of day, the aspect of shade and sun, the wind, and the distance from other hikers, among other pertinent details."

Good advice:
"A fourth need is to change one’s lifestyle. In particular, HSPs need to avoid reaching debilitating levels of overstimulation. They need to plan for adequate downtime. After a lifetime of trying to be like the majority, this can require some effort and even willpower to arrange work and family life so that it is how it should be for the individual HSP, while taking into consideration their responsibilities to others. Lifestyle changes pay off for the HSP and everyone around them, allowing them to make their trait a real asset."

Office days make me tired and exhausted.
Too many unnecessary stimuli for someone without a stimulus filter in his head.
