    1. Do you mean in conversations, like people don’t get what you are trying to say?
    2. You could also mean that people don’t appreciate how you are and aren’t more understanding towards you.

    To 1.: When there are misunderstandings in conversations, it really depends on the topic and person… For example, today I had to explain to someone how some preferences in a sound mixer worked. For that I tried explain it how I saw it, but when I saw it didn’t work, I tried different methods of describing it (metaphors of generally known topic or a more broad description). Also a lot of people seem to make more an effort to understand, when they feel like you talk to them in a way, that they also feel acknowledged and accepted.

    To 2.: In general, I have learned, that a lot of people are trying to be more understanding of a person if one invests themselves in them in some way.

    You could also have meant something else, that I missed…but hopefully this helps somehow I’m by no means an expert on this, probably more the opposite. This is just my experience.



  • I’m not entirely sure, I’m autistic, as I have not been assessed yet, but my GP and I are both fairly sure. I hope that it’s still appropriate for me to answer here.

    For a few years now I am into C-Programming. I’m thinking of my current project all the time and need to constrain myself not to info dump too much to people, who have no interest in or knowledge about this topic. I underestimate the size of a project a lot of times, but if it’s not huge project it just seems not worth the effort.
