Hi there! Thanks for responding. My brother has autism, so I am familiar with tells and symptoms, therefore I am quite confident I do not fit within that description. Another part of alexithymia that I saw in your provided article was a lack of imagination or dreams. I have the exact opposite! 😄 My dreams are very vivid, and the one way I really express emotions is through writing. Thank you also for your concern about my mom. She is doing well now.
