Not sure if anyone has experienced this, but personally I’ve been accused of exaggerating or overreacting to a problem that seems justified in my view. I think people don’t pay attention to the whole story and make assumptions about a certain background as if it is normal. Unfortunately they cannot speak for all of us as one’s experience may completely differ from another’s.
I ain’t got much else to say, so I’ll just leave it here.
Hi. Yes: it happened to me too. And you described so well, I relate to what you wrote. You know one possible explanation is that we autistics see the entirety of a subject and we tend to stay too long on that. Whereas they, neurotypicals tend to synthesize and finish quickly. * It sounds like a complain to them, I think you mean to describe things in detail, and if related to something you talk about yourself, they think it sounds like a complain. Instead for you it is a description. I understood that it is necessary to reduce interactions to a minimum, if absolutely necessary and only when our contribution is indispensable. For them, it's like running the 100 meters in athletics. Instead, for us it becomes a kind of marathon. They are both very beautiful races, but they have completely different dynamics. As well as a classic poem and a Haiku. Citation: Clouds from time to time they give us rest as we look at the moon. Matsuo Basho
