It's Aspergers syndrome.
A form of autism, for those who don't know.
This explains everything. This also means I am "disabled" by both medical and legal standards.
No wonder I've struggled so much. I'm 48 and have battled this my whole life.....completely unaware.
Just wanted to finish this up for you guys and gals. I'll be a ghost for a while, while I get myself situated with this.
This is why I struggle so much with the social aspect of life.
This is my shadow.
I'm good with it. I make sense to me now.
Cheers

Autism spectrum disorder is a condition related to brain development that affects how a person perceives and socializes with others, causing problems in social interaction and communication. It includes conditions that previously were considered separate, including autism, Asperger's syndrome, childhood disintegrative disorder and an unspecified form of pervasive developmental disorder.
Autism affects children and adults in three areas: communication, social interaction and behaviors. Children with autism spectrum disorder may struggle with recognizing their emotions and may feel them more intensely. Regulating their anger and frustration can be difficult and lead to intense bursts of emotions. Children with autism also have higher rates of anxiety and depression.
Was this diagnosed through an MD or a Psychiatrist.
I like your explanation. I have a close mate who's son has suffered this for many years.
Sorry to hear,
