There is no explaination for Evangelion.

Take drugs before watching.  It will help.

Think of it this way.  Shinji and Asuka are opposite sides
of the same coin.  They both suffer tremendous loss and 
isolation, and both are badly warped as a result.  But
while Asuka compensates by becoming a overachieving,
ego-centric she-tiger, Shinji tries to cope by reducing
himself to his barest personality components.  

Considering Asuka was crumbling even before the Angels
did their job on her, and Shinji was still functioning -
sort of - afterward. you have to assume he may have
chosen the right (or at least a righter) path.
