That came from a novel by Octavia Butler; as far as I know, it isn’t real.

The novels in question were Parable of the Sower and Parable of the Talents and the main character of the novels has “hyperempathy syndrome” which has exactly the effects you describe. And it was invented for the novel; it isn’t real.
