Trying to understand

Post Reply New Topic

Entity-So your dad has Asp? How did that affect you? I'll read anything. If I'm in the bathroom, I'll read the ingredients on shampoo bottles.

Pandd-Thank you. Your response was very helpful. I have always had very poor social skills but am extrememly emotional and always worried about what people think, if I've done something wrong, if I've acted stupid etc... I've learned to understand my emotions but when I was younger, I was so inarticulate about them. I knew I had them but didn't know why. Like I'm hurt but couldn't identify what hurt me. But I've always gotten the impression that Asp people aren't really concerned about these things. Perhaps I'm wrong.

Jetlag-Thanks.

Sounds a bit like my mother's Borderline Personality Disorder.

Funny you should say that. I have suspected that she was borderline before, but it doesn't quite fit. she doesn't have the stormy relationships and really has no self-doubts...at least none she is aware of or focuses on.
