Emotional Direction
I think some emotions such as loneliness or paranoia do not exist. You will not ask “am I alone” if it does not bother you. I think autistic people can suffer because of the underlying differences we just don’t know about. I think generally autistic people shy away from conflict as often as they can and worry that some people can lose respect for that. I think it is great to know your disability and limitations, but I also think autistic people would be a lot better off if one day they could be a bit more robust, and that will never happen if we get told we are a certain way, but are not. I want to share this information more publicly, I just have a lot on at the moment. So I want to share this information more publicly somehow when I get the time. Any thoughts?
Loneliness and paranoia certainly exist.
Paranoia is not an "emotion," it's a tendency toward certain kinds of beliefs.
