I believe you are going through a opening of your awareness,
This was a stage i also went through, it was a scarey time, Conversations took on new levels of meaning "to me", i was bombarded on every front, i could find no way to turn "it" off, you at first feel isolated/attacked,
Over time i realised the one of the easiest levels we access are our "fear levels", which "leak from people" normally unnoticed, these emotions can be picked up by us when we are "tuned in", the same as a tv that as many channels but we only normally tune into one at a time,
You will over time, without realising begin to tune into deeper levels, Where a new understanding to what we are will open up to you, A oneness with everything, a connection on levels you never knew was possible,
"Embrace it", Do not fear it, It is just a level you are passing through. See you on the otherside
