Autism & Aphasia

Atypical

I wondered whether anyone had a view on how autism affects your ability to process information, particularly in the written form? For instance, I tend to mix words up in a sentence when reading and do not like numbers.

    I find my mind is very good at filling in gaps or glossing over mistakes - especially on things I've been working on for a while.  I also have a habit of missing words out even though I was thinking them as I was writing.

    Ideally I find it's best to leave things for a few days and then go back to them if possible.  I also occasionally misread numbers but I'm not too sure what's behind that.
