[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anxiety and missing social cues. She has an overabundance of empathy towards oppressed/traumatized people, which has put her in a lot of bad situations. She's let many people live with her (not romantically) who rob her and trash her home, gotten her evicted. She's gotten involved in their niche causes even when they don't affect her and arrested at protests. She's alienated herself from friends and family because they don't understand the trauma that these oppressed people have (family is already very liberal and accepting). She's being used and often can't see it. This happens over and over and over again, not one time. [/quote] This sounds very, very similar to one of my loved ones with ASD. If you can tell me more about how you have addressed this, I’d appreciate it. What do you think the connection to ASD is? I never put two and two together with this but this is eerily familiar.
