Unified Theory of Autism

I found this: https://thepsychologist.bps.org.uk/volume-32/august-2019/me-and-monotropism-unified-theory-autism

Thoughts? 

I've also happened across individuals who would love to re-design the whole education system for Autistic children. Articles like this seem to contain a map, or a piece of a "map" to help reframe perspectives and shift the action>consequence involved.

  • There are lot of very interesting concepts there.

    I find that the 'Autistic Inertia' really applies to me, and by extension, the scenario one can get into where the main 'trope' is taken away, or completed and suddenly I find myself almost shutdown or completely lacking any purpose whatsoever. Logic suggests that having another project underway or on pause, ready to be engaged with would be the way out of this but in practice, I have plenty of these available but find myself at a standstill and virtually inactive.
