@theautisticcoach@actuallyautistic At times my empathy button seems broken; I will approach many emotionally charged events with clinical detachment, always expecting that I can just react emotionally "later", but I never seem to get around to that point.
There are other times, though, that I can't handle. Like, I can watch horror movies and whatever entrails appear on screen, but watching a surgical show or footage of an accident it turns my stomach.
