Talking/ texting

Kate

I go through days of not talking/ texting or if I do, hardly at all. It’s not that I don’t want to. It’s that I don’t know what to say and it feels forced. On these days I only ever seem to talk if people talk to me and I will go quiet. Do you guys have any advice or tips for this kind of situation?

  • its a very typical autistic stance/strategy.

    i can t really give u advice as i do this myself 

    yesterday just after my Bankei Zen lesson I noticed that I went and started a conversation with my neighbour and it didnt bother me at all. I seem to be becoming  less and less anxious.

    so my advice is to take up mindfulness ( living and formal meditation)
