I thought I’d edit this to remove any offence I may have caused I just wondered what everyone thought of hidden emotional problems to do with autism. The reason I singled out empathy was to explore the realm of autism that is more emotional. I have a lot of help to give to autistic people. For example I will make a post tomorrow about some research I have been doing. I don’t know what it means but it’s interesting. Remember everyone that I am on your side. I care about autistic people more than you can know. It breaks me to see autistic people suffer with what I see as a disease and I have some things to get off my chest. Your all great and very supportive!
Empathy is something I feel very strongly. I hate seeing people upset and hurt, I'll cry if I see people having a bad time, even strangers and I just want to help but find I often can't help and then I feel like a terrible person. It's like my whole body is programmed to feel bad whenever I see people near me struggling but when I look at others they couldn’t care less.
It's really exhausting being this empathic and I'm sure my anxiety abuses it because I spend a lot of time feeling anxious about my own life but also more time than I like admitting worrying about other people, some who I don't even know.
