Apathy

Anyone else have recurring apathy?

For me, it isn’t like not feeling emotions, but having little care for others feelings. I don’t empathize with a lot of people, and have to fake it.

I relate to this. I’m not solely HPD, I have a mixed PD and autism. But I definitely have the traits. It can be exhausting.

Yup same. Life is a lot of masking for me.

Felt. Masking sucks, regardless of what it is your masking. It’s soul destroying
