ASD Email disclaimer?

NAS76602

Hi all,

Non ASD people seem to struggle with my abruptness and straightforwardness in my emails. I’m told they come across as aggressive and cold and can be upsetting. 
I don’t see it that way at all no matter how many times I read and rewrite. It also causes issues in my professional life too. 
I'm thinking of adding an email disclaimer saying I’ve ASD and to make allowances and responses should be short and sweet. 

has anyone else done this? Is it a good idea? Or am I just opening myself to hassle?

thanks x

    they don't care that you did not intend it to be aggressive, and they will insist that they are anyway

    misinterpretation will happen  anyway, because there is no law prohibiting it

    try one of formal ways of speaking, e.g. like lawyers
