New Word: Alexithymia

It's a mental health issue, and my web surfing today led me to it. It seems disturbingly familiar in the contexts of interpersonal relationships and in politics on several scales. Certain people we all know of from the news might well see it as a weapon to use or a goal to achieve...but not within themselves in the latter instance.
