Does anyone else have trouble connecting?
Like, with other people but with things in general. Like. sometimes i hang out with friends that i know, based on previous experiences, that i like, but i dont end up having any fun or feeling anything. its not that i have a bad time or that we do things that are boring, but i just dont have fun. i need to settle on some friends to invite to a birthday party, but its like i cant remember how i feel about them at all.
and this also happens with things that i like sometimes, or when i watch movies or read books. it might be just that i have different taste, but things that seem to move others or make people laugh generally dont do the same for me. and its not that it cant happen, because i have had times when i laugh and feel for things i read etc. but its happened enough times before that it concerns me a bit. does anyone else on the spectrum experience this or feels this way?
and idk if this is relevant, but sometimes i have the opposite problem of feeling too much? like i cant stand being in the same room where theres trashy reality shows, soap operas and some shows on because the content really upsets me? like, people fightig, violence, people suffering. i cant stand it but also i cant ignore it.
(im in therapy and dont think im depressed but am going through stressful times so idk)
