Hey sunburst,
Kaimelar actually gave a good description there and I agree with LadyeFalcon as well. Your empathic abilities are growing, and empathy is a toughie to deal with, it makes you super sensitive to everything around you and can quickly turn into paranoia, anxiety and constant worry. You don't want to have the emotions super imposed on you and not know how to get free from them, so slow it down, find your control over it, and a good way to do this is to try to "force" some connections, so that you over power your mind so that it doesn't happen randomly, do it on purpose, don't let it just happen to you.
