Unified Theory of Autism

I really enjoyed reading this article. I think a lot about autism and its probably a special interest of mine. I'm not a psychologist so it's all my own analysis and observations as I go about my daily life. This article is really interesting because only in the past week have I put together in my own head about autistic inertia and thinking styles. I have become aware recently that unless I am told differently my mind can stay on the same trajectory unless told otherwise.  Usually autistic inertia is about tasks but I realised last week it could also be to do with thinking. 

The article covers itself by saying it's a spectrum and everyone is different etc.... Some people have ADD/ADHD + AS.  I feel monotropism contradicts my understanding of these conditions but I could be wrong.

For me, I like to have answers and think about possibilities. It's interesting how there's no unified theory of being normal. 

From what I understand & have read, these may all fall under Neuro-Divergent thinking. I really like this explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNgLrPkp2y4

However, all of this is still under-researched. For me, finding further exposure of scientific understanding by individuals who are ND is critical to putting all the pieces together.
