Alexithymia

Description

Jessica has always been emotionless since a child. People think she is cold, uncaring and tactless. Everyone thought it was her natural trait, until Dr Kim remarked Jessica had Alexithymia after a severe head collision when she was a child.

Alexithymia /ˌlɛksəˈθmiə/ is a personality construct characterized by the sub-clinical inability to identify and describe emotions in the self.The core characteristics of alexithymia are marked dysfunction in emotional awareness, social attachment, and interpersonal relating. Furthermore, individuals with alexithymia have difficulty in distinguishing and appreciating the emotions of others, which is thought to lead to unempathic and ineffective emotional responding. Alexithymia is prevalent in approximately 10% of the general population and is known to be comorbid with a number of psychiatric conditions.

Foreword

I don't really know why I suddenly write this, but call it a surge of inspiration and leave it at that. I don't even know if I will continue writing after this, blame it all on UHB and school.

Perhaps I read Dr Frost too much.

This won't be abandoned, I'll rewrite it... but perhaps later than anticipated.

Chapter 5: This is totally makes me need to think so hard! Stephan and Stephie is just totally so mysterious like seriously. And I still wonder about their true identities. Hopefully I can see your update soon. You left us hanging again with all this curiousity.

Chapter 5: Does this mean Stephen is actually a girl and Stephanie a man? Aissshhh that's probably possible because of what they were hinting.

I hope you would continue to update soon, author-nim. Fighting!! I hope that alexithymia thing that you possibly have is not true. :(

Chapter 4: Lol! Stephen is so funny! No wonder the shikshins and Yuri always pranks him. Hahaha.. He's a smart one like his sister but then he can't do any material arts. Hahaha.. No wonder if her sister is the real heir of their company. Hahaha..
Good to know that finally Tiffany is out now. She's still the mysterious one since Stephen is more like the open one in here.
I wonder who that guy? Did he stolen Tiffany's phone?
