Well the title of the video says "Aspies don't have emotions" which is bull. Either she's faking it or she's extremly misguided about Aspergers.

You can look totally normal with Asperger's syndrome

Watch the damn video

The whole point of the video is to discredit the stereotype that Aspies do not have emotions. The title of the video is "Aspies don't have emotions ...??? " not "Aspies don't have emotions".

It is a very powerful video about the difficulties and price of masking.

I watched it shortly after I got diagnosed and it proved to me my diagnosis was correct. It was just the message I needed to hear at that time.
