Following a recent discussion I note that some people say they have learnt how to do eye contact. My question is how do you do it?
I have been asked if I am listening as the only way I can consciously try is by looking to the side of someone or looking at a nose or tie. If I look towards someone's eyes I feel like I am staring so then look away.
I struggle with eye contact. I used to look at people's mouths but now just quickly glance at eyes every now and then but avoid focusing on them as it causes me anxiety.
Sounds like a very common trait on the Autism Scale.You are perfectly normal in " our " world
