Interesting thread.

I've been struggling with drug abuse and addiction (opiates, amphetamines, and benzodiazepines), depression, Asperger syndrome (although that is disputed, more about that soon), and other psychological problems.
About 6 monts ago, I was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, but my psychiatrist and my psychologist think that diagnosis may be wrong. The issue is that I don't experience empathy. I have never felt empathy for anyone or anything, ever. I rarely feel anything, which has led my doctors to think it might be a neurological issue. This friday, I'm scheduled for a brain scan, during which they will see if my emotional center in my brain is active, by asking me emotional questions (and letting me answer) to see how me and my brain react, and they have mentioned psychopathy as a possible cause.

I just wanted to get this off my chest.
