Breaking Down Barriers: Empowering Autistic Minds with Insights into Neurotypical Behavior
The absence of a diagnosis for all those years before the age of 58 allowed me to maintain objectivity in observing and experiencing myself and others without preconceived notions. As a result, I approach autism with skepticism towards common beliefs and stereotypes. I can provide insights and challenge misconceptions about autism, including empathic abilities, cognitive challenges, communication challenges, social understanding, social responsiveness, and more. Understanding neurotypical behavior is crucial for survival and effective communication among neurodivergent individuals, and I can help navigate those differences.
