How do you describe autism to the non-autistic?
Arguably in exactly the same way as how you might describe what it's like being not autistic to an autistic, but that doesn't get us anywhere. How do you describe the inside of your head when the reference point is the inside of someone else's head?
Now, it seems to me that because the autistic brain is effectively wired somewhat different to the normal brain, it perceives the world somewhat differently and as a consequence some things some things which are obvious to neurotypical people are incomprehensible to autistics, and other things are obvious to autistics are incomprehensible to neurotypicals.
It's something that I get a lot, but I have no idea if it's autism or something else...
