The Open Channel

All three channels are wide open: you reconstruct what people are going through accurately, it genuinely moves you, and it lands in your own body and stays a while. None of that is a flaw — this is the profile that notices the friend who has gone quiet, and it is the reason a lot of people got help at the point they needed it. What the profile doesn't come with is a valve. With no channel reading low, there's no part of a day spent among people that isn't costing something, and the cost is invisible to everyone including, usually, you: absorption doesn't announce itself, it turns up later as a week you can't account for. The people who hold this profile long-term build the pause deliberately, because it will never arrive on its own. If that's most days and it's expensive, it's worth saying to a qualified professional.
