I don?t know what i want out of this post maybe i will get insight i dont know

So what?s happening is everyone ive ever met in the past has hurt me and now I am at a point where I don?t want any friends because of the stress that comes along it. I try and tell myself that this is a good thing as I will not be hurt by anyone but another part of me is saying that i should keep looking. I am not refusing to look. Refusing to meet anyone new to go out with my current friends and to maintain a friendship with them. All of them have hurt me so much in the past. Now another issue I used to feel a small amount of empathy but not i have lost the ability to be empathic. I am at a point where I do not care one bit about how others feel. This is something I don?t want to feel like.
So anyway can anyone give me some advice please?

Oh and also recently I my hand flapping has increased and other aspergers symptoms have become amplified.

This may be a sign of depression or something similar...maybe you should talk to a therapist about it if possible.

Sorry, but I can't really think of anything else useful. Maybe someone else will know better.

The fact that you are aware of a "lack of empathy" means that you are empathetic.

The fact that you have "current friends" is significant. It means the cause is far from being lost.

You've had some body blows recently, and you're reeling from them. Everything seems to be "coming together at once."

Perhaps, the fact of "everything coming together at once" has put you in what seems like serious despair.

There are times when I feel like the sky is falling sometimes. I feel like I'm in the Depths of Despair sometimes.

Then, tomorrow, I wake up--and I feel better.

Perhaps this might happen to you.

My advice is to continue to communicate with your friends, and to live your life. Read a book, go on the Internet to talk to us at WrongPlanet. Allow yourself to broaden your perspective on things.

OP, could you expand a bit? How old are you? Are you male or female?
