Dealing with conflict

NAS71674

I'm always hearing that autistic people don't like conflict. Who does? The question I want to ask is do other autistic just let others walk over them and just accept it or we generally stand up for ourselves when being treated unfairly? For me personally I know its not good to be in conflict (anxiety, stress, uncertainty about what could happen)  but I feel my sense of fairness over powers me and I tend to stand up for myself when getting walked over (which is quite often to be honest).

  • Through my life I've seen all sorts of unacceptable behaviours accepted as 'right' or 'normal' so if I am on the receiving end, I cannot judge if I'm at fault for not understanding - so yes, I tend to be walked all over and abused initially - until I can gather more evidence about the game that's being played.
