One of the things I have most struggled with since realising I'm autistic is how slow I am to process my emotions. I can very rarely articulate what I'm feeling at any time & the realisation/identification of the emotion only comes afterwards. But also a lot of it is guesswork. My method for processing my emotions usually requires little narratives as explainers. E.g. X happened, I like/dislike/hate X, therefore I'm feeling Y. Needless to say, this approach is vulnerable to error.
