Top: "Someone jokes about inanimate object being in pain"

Bottom: "Become extremely upset for said object"

This one might be just me... My mom taught me how to openly empathize through a lot of hard work (How would that make you feel exercises) before we ever knew I had AS. But in turn learning that became a very generalized skill. IDK. I broke a plate once and nearly had a funeral for it.

I heard a lot about this recently. It seems true for me, at least... earlier I was upset over some miniscule thing with my gf and it felt like my heart was ripping in half. I wanted to crawl under a table and never come out again, or roll around until it stopped aching.

Theory is, contrary to popular belief: AS individuals feel things so strongly they often shut down as a defense mechanism.

I have no source other than word-of-mouth from professionals I have lots of faith in. So if someone has a source I'd love to read it pf.

I get in trouble a lot with my friends when they ask me for my opinion and I give what I truly feel, not understanding that they want a positive answer rather than my actual opinion.

Mod note: I almost didn't get this haha. "I get ship feel-- ohhh" Shhh, I'm a wee bit slow on the uptake. This one is clever.
