Alexithymia

From Freepedia

Alexithymia is a disorder characterized by cognitive-emotional deficits including:

  • problems identifying, describing, and working with one's own feelings, often marked by a lack of understanding of the feelings of others;
  • confusion of physical sensations often associated with emotions;
  • few dreams or fantasies due to restricted imagination; and
  • concrete, realistic, logical thinking, often to the exclusion of emotional responses to problems.
  • Those who have Alexithymia also report very logical and realistic dreams, such as going to the store, or eating supper.
