Lack of affect? Is that part of your Aspie experience? It is mine. It
adversely affects my success in getting proper medical care and
other essential services. Flat affect. Wooden face. Failure to
show emotion. Inability to get help when it is needed, as one
simply 'goes away' or melts down to avoid feelings in the face of
impossible emotional situation. Any or all of these may strike a
chord with an Aspie who is baffled by life. See also
