ive read alot of threads on here and it doesnt seem like you guys lack empathy..in fact, many of you seem to care too much about others feelings and their lives...my problem is this, i have a few SA issues BUT i think what may be the cause of alot of my actions(isolation/introversion) is that in many cases i truly do NOT care what other people are up to, what they have done during the day etc etc...i hate to sound like a jerk but when many people start going off on what they have been doing, my brain starts to shut down ..i have to start thinking about something else immediately.....i guess that would definitely hurt my relationships because lets face it, in order to make a relationship last, you have to genuinely be interested in other peoples lives....now, this is where drugs come in, i can have a few shots of vodka or something else, and i suddenly develop some empathy towards people...nothing else really helps or makes me care about others.....
is anyone else like this???do you lack empathy??if so, how do you treat this problem???is this lack of empathy a symptom of SA or something else??
