Here's a "heavy" point to discuss. "Misunderstandings are a primary source of trauma in autism."

Thoughts on this good people?  :-)

Parents
  • Yes, I hear, that im argumentative when I'm not, angry, or sad when I'm fine, or even that I take drugs, or look high- I don't. Verbal and nonverbal misunderstandings are stressful. Whenever someone pulls their eyebrows together I think, that they are angry. It turns out its nit that easy, there are nuances that I don't catch. So I often ask the stupid question "are you angry?" Or I hear from others if I'm afraid of them. No, I'm not.
