| I think I may, at some point, have killed off my soul. And I'm wondering if there is any way to get it back. Has anyone out there been able to recover their soul and take an interest in themselves after years of abuse. I still hold out hope. I am not the most spiritual person in the world but it se... |

| [quote="LD92] Ahh okay. Thank you for clarifying that for me :). Indeed, I agree that it's not good that they don't care. I may have a 'cold personality' because I lack empathy for most, however I WANT to feel things, unlike those people you mentioned I suppose. So would you say that the way that I ... |

| Well from what you have described you are simply hardwired in that particular way. I can certainly see how it would create problems for you with other family members by not showing an interest in visiting your mom while in the hospital for example. They would interperate this as callous and would no... |

| When it comes to documentaries (like when they showed wikileaks footage of soldiers shooting people for sport), that's guaranteed to make me cry the entire time I'm watching it - and on top of that I will be a complete mess for the rest of the night and the next day. I see your point and know that ... |

| Even if M's brother died, I don't think I'd feel much tbh. I didn't think that this is normal? I think it would be appropriate and closer to normal for you to feel badly for M in that case. Not to feel anything necessarily for the brother with whom you may not have an emotional investment seems rea... |

| Me personally, I lack empathy in areas such as: + Watching a TV programme, and someone dies etc, has absolutely no positive effect on me at all... + When I hear that M's parents tell me that one of their relations has got Cancer, I don't feel sympathy or anything, it just makes me curious what type... |

| This a good question. I have also been wondering the same. What is also confusing is the info regarding and apparent lack of empathy/sympathy from those with with AS. For my part I can say that I know empathy and sympathy to an extent that I believe goes beyond the average person NT or AS. I am hype... |

| Well I don't want to lose her because it lacks sense for me to leave her for lesser quality relationships just because I have a flaw that says I need them. I don't see wisdom in this. Also, she has been made aware of these things, we are trying to work through it. You know that you are not prepared... |

| One thing that I dislike is how there are no NTs my age (that I know of) with whom I can talk about autism, except for one friend, who was one of those three people I mentioned above. I really wish there was more awareness about autism from the perspective of autistics in general. Look at our socie... |
