Alexithymia Partner Support Group - Facebook Group
Alexithymia is the inability to recognize or describe one’s own emotions. PARTNERS of Alexithymics face unique challenges that are often misunderstood by others, creating an atmosphere of isolation and loneliness. The terms “Emotional Deprivation Disorder” and “Cassandra Syndrome” are often used to describe our situation. This group provides a forum for sharing, education and support for those in a relationship with an Alexithymic. If you have Alexithymia we kindly refer you to join one of the several other Alexithymia support groups. To join this group you must answer the two questions that will appear after you request to join. If you do not see the questions please contact one of the Admins. Requests without answered questions will be declined. If we cannot properly vet you because your personal information is limited or your privacy controls are set too high then your join request will be declined. Thank you.
