Hello everyone I have often heard and seen portrayed on films and T.V that autistic people find it impossible to lie which is funny to me because I’m autistic and I lie quite often only little one’s usually to get out of something I’m not comfortable with but I do often.
Is there any fellow autistics that can lie or do you find it impossible?
i used to lie a lot when trying to keep conversations going ---- i have stopped that now it was creating delusions and other personalities in my mind .
lying as such isnt bad if u are protecting someone from a truth which could hurt them --- i mum called them "white" lies which means good lies.
I can lie during small talk at will but say in a job interview i answer truthfully sometimes to my own detriment.
What about little lies out of fear anxiety or something that would ruin my routine.
