    This is wonderful. My old therapist talked with me about empathy, so I found this so helpful. Thank you!

      It’s a fantastic article isn’t it? It furnished me with so many answers to to the disconnect of supposedly ‘not feeling anything’. ‘Overload on empathy and then shut down’ – makes so much more sense to the emotions I see in The Rose everyday. NOW I think I can help He from a much wiser and empathetic perspective. Good luck to you and thank you so much for posting on the blog. Means a lot.

    For parents who has kids with aspergers syndrome, patience is the key to keep you going. Proper care and monitoring is therefore suggested. Kids with these problems are those that need more attention, love and care. One technique that could help parents alleviate these disorder are the so-called cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people understand and modify certain automatic, negative thoughts that can affect their emotions and behavior.
