Pain

Everytime I see someone with a cut or other injury, i feel a deep pain and tingly feeling in the same spot. Is this normal?

it's just your subconscious acting up... whenever i see something like that (ie intestines hanging out, broken bones, etc...) i always feel squimish

I get a feeling of numbness in my legs like a tightness from inside everytime I see someone injured. Pretty weird.

same, its like when we see a guy getting hit in the groin, every male feels the same pain.

Yes, Its an empathic reaction to another person's pain. It just means that you're sensitive to the pain of others. I have the same 'problem' whenever I see someone hurting. Seeing it in a movie or TV show doesn't have any effect because I know they are acting, but If I see something realthat is particularly severe, its even been known to make me feel quite woozy.

Then, today for some odd reason, my wrist was cut, and the person next to me started to hurt in the wrist without any marks, and i didn't feel a thing...

sorta like this: me :bnghd:
them

Ouch !!!! yes, just thinking of getting kicked in the balls makes me wince !!!

When I hear someone else who needs to clear their throat, I always cough instinctively.....

Its the same when people talk about nits. Everyone starts to itch and has to scratch, no matter how hard they try not to!
