When you first get an autism diagnosis, people in your life might refuse to accept it. I think subconsciously they don’t want to have to reevaluate the caricature they’ve created of you in their heads or how they’ve treated you in the past.

10 things you can change that will help #autistic people in your life:1. Don't demand everyone makes eye contact with you. For autistic people, this can be alienating as eye contact can be really intense and unpleasant.— Pete Wharmby (@commaficionado) June 21, 2022
Reaching out because I’m feeling alone (and it makes me feel crap that I have to use to social media to do this but whatever keeps me going at this point). I’m at a&e on the observation ward waiting to see mental health services and I am very much not OK right now.— Ella Tabb (@Purpleella) June 20, 2022

Fascinating paper. Autistic youth were rated as showing more “theory-of-mind-related violations of neurotypical conversational norms” but didn’t differ from non-autistic youth in “explicit mental state language and perspective-taking” (which is how ToM is commonly defined) https://t.co/TE7BlbdXoV— Noah Sasson (@Noahsasson) June 20, 2022
Where autistic youth did differ— “violations of neurotypical conversational norms, such as providing too much, too little, or irrelevant information”— doesn’t strike me as traditional Theory of Mind though?— Noah Sasson (@Noahsasson) June 20, 2022
She asked for help from services, responded autistically and was then detained under the Mental Health Act - for 3.5 yrs. During this time she experienced massive amounts of restrictive practice including routine restraint, seclusion and long term segregation.#ATAmentalhealth— AT-Autism (@AT_Autism) June 20, 2022
Unless you argue that these violations are because they don’t understand or infer or respond to their partner’s preferences. But that goes both ways! Non-autistic youth are also likely behaving and talking in ways that aren’t preferred by their autistic partners.— Noah Sasson (@Noahsasson) June 20, 2022

NT see the gifted Autist as an optimized Neurotypical rather than cognitively distinct. NT conceit and ignorance of neurodiversity leads them to contort the Autist into an NT mirror, dwarfing the Autist’s cognitive ability and undermining our potential.#ActuallyAutistic #gifted https://t.co/40YnFc2ljO— humanbeingawkward (@ZoeYork_) June 21, 2022

Autistics have been framed as sensitive, and autism as a ‘sensory disorder’. The research however, shows that Autistic people have heightened sensory processing abilities. You’d experience sensory overload too if you could detect as much as we do.Research links coming👇— humanbeingawkward (@ZoeYork_) June 1, 2022
