Do Other Peoples Moods/Emotions Override Your Own?
Just a random thread to keep me occupied. My house mate who I love to bits yelled at me before leaving for work. She sometimes gets like this and has said it's due to her autism and stuff. But at the same time it hurt me a lot so I just have some McDonalds cheesy nuggets waiting in the other room for her.
Anyone else feel similar? Anyone have any tips or logical thought patterns to lower the pain of this "condition"?
Sorry for this strange discussion It's just some semi therapy lol

It only ever happens negatively. Positive moods don't impact me as much. But a bad mood directed to me can ruin my day

Well I'm not a psychiatrist but autism isn't typically a cause of such aggression. A lot of us are just straight-up unpleasant in the morning (talk to me before 9 AM and I will literally murder you). It's just normal human behavior that a lot of us have. When people feel like crap, they treat other people like crap. I understand that saying "don't take it personally" is a lot harder than it seems, but you'll eventually get used to it.

I'm an empath so I'm like a sponge when around people who are having strong emotions and take them on myself.
The way I to try and deal with it is to take deep breaths and force myself to smile through it to help trick my brain into keeping positive. It's a day to day struggle though and something that you just learn to control more the older and wiser you get.

There's a lot of factors, but recently I've had an issue with a work colleague after they got ######### with me and my stomach was in knots and my head had a huge migraine, but I think that comes from stress.
A stress reaction to negative thoughts is stronger than positive thoughts because of our "fight or flight" programming. In short, back in our early history we would be very wary coming across a sabre-toothed cat and stress acts as a defense. It's a little outdated now, but it's the main reason.
Also, with your friend, although Autism doesn't cause outbursts itself, the frustrations those with the condition feel can cause those to act angrily. I'm on the spectrum, and any build up of stress or such will cause us to become frustrated - but that's the same with anyone. It's just those on the Spectrum may have a harder time with it.
It's good to see you're both on good terms now though🙂

Forgot to mention she has Bipolar too. So she said that was probs also a big cause of it.
It's really hard trying to understand this stuff sometimes. I guess I'm quite "normal" when compared.

It can be hard, but remember it's just as important to give yourself a break and realise it's as much her duty to do her best with her condition as it is for you to empathise. Give yourself some time away with other friends or hobbies and remember if you have good intentions then you're doing well. Your mental health is just as important and your roomie will be trying her best to help you as well. Communication is key. 🙂
