One of them was the demonstrating of brushing teeth, and also making up a story with 5 objects, and making up a story on a story book. I couldn't even do these tasks. Plus I couldn't even express how I feel when I am happy and sad internally. Is this gonna cause my assessment to be inconclusive?
She asked what happens internally when I feel happy or sad, and I was like I can't even express that... how does one know they are happy except they feel less anxious !
This is why therapy doesn’t work for me. They keep saying “and how does that make you feel?” and I keep saying “I don’t know!”
Apparently it’s called alexithymia and very common for autistic people.
omgosh this is so me
I’m very much a concrete actions and solutions sort of person, not a feelings person.
Feelings aren't facts.
