I'm not sure if this is even related to Asperger's or not, but it is definitely something I do. Whenever I start to feel an emotion, I really hold onto it. In particular, anger and other negative feelings. If something makes me angry, I get really angry and I don't cool down easily. People tell me to "let it go" but no one is ever responsive when I ask "How?" I don't understand how to just let an emotion go and switch to another one on command. Likewise, I don't really understand how to "Relax" or "stop thinking so much about it" when people say that. People are always willing to say things like that but never willing to explain how to do them.
Can anyone else relate? Is this even related to Asperger's at all?
