OCD, cos that's what I'm closest to within Asperger's.

I don't know how psychopaths feel emotions but i do know that sociopaths are pathologically incapable of feeling certain emotions. And i know i am capable of feeling emotions, so it isnt sociopath. But the way i feel emotions is not typical. I don't feel an irrational emotion. I know exactly why i feel any emotion. It is completely reasonable. I hear often that people have irrational emotions, and frankly i think that this might either be true or they are incapable of working through why that emotion is rational or they just dont know. So it might be that i feel emotions completely naturally i am just capable of figuring out why i feel any emotion i have. But no matter what i can tell you exactly why i feel the way i do about something. No matter how angry or stressed i am. I can think it through. Like if i am SEEING RED PISSED in a situation i can still give an honest explanation like "I feel angry because you have made it look like i am an idiot when i feel that i am completely justified in this situation, and i understand how to person A, B, and C it may appear to them i am unjustified, and they are partially right, but i feel justified because of <insert long explanation here> and i resent that you arent being more understanding in this situation, even though i understand you might not have the personal strength, maturity, and inclination to work it all though like i have."

I can't help but love the irony of the list. I am already dx'd OCD and ADD/ADHD, and have been through an identitiy crisis.

I voted "schizophrenia". But then again, my parents accused me of being a schizophrenic ever since I was old enough to talk. And they continued even after I photocopied a page from a medical encyclopedia, and showed to them to prove that the symptoms were different. So schizophrenia it is, I guess.
