Living with saying the wrong thing

Hi all. Saying the wrong thing, for me is a huge problem. May I say the biggest problem that I have with my ASD. How do you manage all the negative feelings about saying the wrong thing, offending people without meaning to and upseting people without meaning to.

Basically every day I feel bad about something that I have said that I know I have been insensitive about.

  • Hi Mrs. Snooks,

    I think this may be a common problem for many users of this forum, including myself. It is very easy, especially in retrospect, to overanalyse these kinds of situations.

    One thing that may be helpful in dealing with these thought processes is CBT (Cognative-Behaviour Therapy). There are many books available on this subject, and they deal largely with these kinds of feelings.
