minus-squareEeyore_SyndromelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down3·edit-26 months ago Um actually… According to the DSM V, it’s Autism Spectrum now. Asperger’s was deleted, update your save file. This whole sub should rename itself. That’s also why I was not diagnosed. It was ~2013 and my psychiatrist said insurance wouldn’t cover it?!? Lol American healthcare system ™. I’m a fan of reading books and making my own growth that way. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Look_Me_in_the_Eye Was a good one imo. I really don’t look at people in the eyes. It hurts my being. Not even my father’s eyes as he was telling me he was dying from brain cancer. I recommend learning to look through people. As I tell my therapist, I am hard coded to dissociate/depersonalize if I’m forced to look people in the eyes. Only my cats get to. Make sense of the world? This is end stage capitalism. A really bad Civilization game -.- . If you have already broken out of the average person bubble of blissful consumerism ignorance then I don’t have any advice either :(
