In chapter 7 of Thrill: The High Sensation Seeking Highly Sensitive Person, I cover how the theory of Positive Disintegration applies to HSS/HSPs. In this podcast, therapist Cindy Barnes articulates a view of the worth of PD as it applies to HSPs. The comments start at about 1:21.
For more on Positive Disintegration, please see chapter 7 of Thrill.
