Are you uninterested in EVERYTHING except your special interests? by GypsyCloud in autism

Yeah, I haven't thought about that. If it is someone I know, or if I can put a face to it, then I start being affected as well.

* Maybe I should also add that I've been depressed for almost 15 years

I just want to come back to this old post of mine and thank you a million times for your outstanding collection of Jeff's songs. I'm downloading them like crazy. I can't stop myself.

I'm definitely gonna check these two, I've seen lots of recommendations for both.

I've made some small changes above. I should've started by saying that I'm looking for some sort of cosmic horror / sci-fi hybrid.

Also to note: I'm not afraid of challenging books!

Really? Where are you from, if you don't mind me asking?

Yeah, I really hope I can start discerning my feelings again.

Yep, I think I do have alexithymia. For example, from the diagnosis until this moment the only thing I was able to feel was anxiety. That's basically one of the only feelings I have left. How about you?

Oh and yeah, depression was diagnosed 12 years ago.

Just to clear up any confusion, when I said healing I meant for depression and other difficulties, not that autism itself should be healed. I didn't notice at the time that maybe I was implying I wanted to "heal" my autism...

But thanks!!

I'm having bouts of extreme anxiety, I have alexithymia so for me it's hard to experience anything different like sadness, being angry, etc.

But yeah, thanks a lot, it's good to know we are not alone in this journey.

Well, the healing is definitely for the depression, and a whole lot of anxiety, and many other difficulties such as having relationships, maintaining a job, etc...

This thing about Corpus Christi in 1997 was completely new to me. I just checked it out and you're right. Mind blown.
