Hello,
There are people on here and on other websites that talk about ''the autistic communication style'' and the ''non-autistic communication style.'' It largely talks about how most communication issues occur between autistics and non-autistics are because the communication styles are fundamentally so different.
I have been trying to research what these communication styles are.
I'm not sure which one I most closely fit to.
I think how I am communicating is understandable by others, only for those people to tell me what I said doesn't reflect how they interpretated what I was saying.
It is fustrating being 25 and not knowing my own ''way of being.''
Please may someone provide me with more information on autistic communication styles and non-autistic communication styles so I can better work out where I fit?
Thank-you.
Yes absolutely!
We autistics typically communicate in a more literal, honest and direct way with interest based deep analytical discussions compared to non autistic people who communicate using small talk and more generalised surface level conversations.
Another difference is that non autistic people tend to use lots of implicit communication in their interactions compared to us autistic people who naturally say what we mean.Here is a graphic which explains some of these differences:
I have tried to view this, however, when I try making it larger so I can see it, it is blurry and I can't read it.
It it possible for you to provide a larger or clearer copy?
Yes alternatively do you use Instagram or Facebook? If so you can find these graphics by searching Neurowild communication styles.
eh im more the bottom green part.infact i can be all of that aside from that top right one. id think the top right one is deceitful a virtue signalling type of brain, fake emotion trying to match the others, yeah i dont do that one so thats the only part of that brain chart i can say wont match me lol
