yeah.. both should be talked about.

[autisticdreamdrop]

Becoming less verbal while stressed but also becoming less verbal when you feel safe and comfortable

We deal with both. We can be stressed and become less verbal but for a lot of us we don't like speaking and when we can just be us, not have to talk, be able stim and use nonverbal communication.. It's amazing

We are like this way around close friends and our mental health team

A lot of times I feel bad because I feel like I'm not "autistic enough" and I know this makes no sense because it's a spectrum and everyone on it has different difficulties and setbacks, but I don't know what to do about feeling like this or if I could ever stop.

I'm always "acting too autistic" or "not autistic enough" and I hate that when a character in tv is shown that appears to be on the spectrum my parents look at me, as if comparing. Idk maybe I'm just imagining that. But the feeling is still there.

Hi there,

It sounds like you might be suffering from imposter syndrome. It’s common for neurodivergent individuals. I found some sources about if you’d like to read more:

I hope these sources can help. Thank you for the inbox. I hope you have a wonderful day/night. ♥️

dude help i just relized that mee seeing patterns in almost everything isn't something that happen automatically in everyones' brains and it has something to do with neurodiversity and i never felt so diffrent in my life

Like all the diffrences in my life even before knowing i'm autistic were clear, and even understandable since i over analyze things my entire life, so i knew about almost every single things that's a diffrence

But the fact that i actually see world literally diffrent just schocked me, like how come others not see it when it's just infront of them ? I need an explaination because non of the sources i usually search from like scince.direct understand my question

Also what do we call this feeling ...? Do you also see pàtterns diffrently ?

Greetings again, I am pleased to see you're still around. And apologies for not answering, I started answering & I had to pause it & then it sort of got under the radar - I am truly sorry, @kidron

I actually have SO MANY inbox messages/asks & I truly want to answer every single one. Do not worry if you sent one & I haven't answered it yet.

What you are referencing to is called

Pattern recognition.

The autistic brain excels at recognizing patterns. In fact, brain regions associated with recognizing patterns (temporal and occipital areas) light up more in autistic people’s than in the general population’s.

People on the Autism Spectrum tend to be very good at finding meaningful patterns in both meaningful & "meaningless" data. They are able to take information, find the patterns within it & thereby explain why things happen.

Overanalysing the world is not uncommon for autistic people & it takes a lot of energy from us.

We truly see the world differently. I can not walk around and NOT see patters everywhere.

It's a skill on one hand because it surely makes me able to excel at analyzing & people do treasure the ability, but given the fact I can not consciously stop it, it is also a burden.

Some examples of my pattern recognition skills (?)

I can usually forsee the plot of a movie after a few minutes of watching it. This also applies to books as well

I can categorize human behavior to general concepts & analyze the meaning behind it (very tiring & it stems from trying to read "between lines" & I actively try to stop that because it is not worth my energy)

License plates. I love to see common patters in numbers & how they connect to the person who owns the car. I also like to decompress by just sitting on a roof & making lists of license plates to categorize them (YES, I am weird, get over it).

Numbers & the beauty of math. I remember the joy I felt when I first recognized some connections between the math operators I learned & the concepts in physics I studied. Real-life connections should be more common in schools because then it would make SENSE to the students.

I can recognize ADHD & Autism in others very quickly due to them being special interests. Mikey calls me an "autie spectrometer" (highly amusing!)

I have been told that my ability to reflect on my own behavior is exceptional

No autistic is the same, this needs to be repeated. We have ever changing needs.

It's hard not to compare yourself to others.

It's hard with imposter syndrome.

We are all different, and that's okay. We are all weird lil polygons/blobs living in this weird plain.

CUDDLES AND THUNDERSTORMS

Hello, this is my first one-shot so I hope you'll enjoy it.

English is not my first language so if there are some mistakes please tell me.

Oc x Alex Morgan

~~~~~~

Bailey was sitting on the couch, in her arms a little girl with long black hair and caramel skin. They were watching a Disney movie laughing at a few jokes and standing by in moments of souspance. Alex was leaning against the door jamb watching the scene with a tender smile on her face as she was live on Instagram with her phone.

<auti Ales! Come watch the movie with us!> it was the third marathon of the week watching the two Frozen movies and each time both of them were engrossed in the movie as if they wanted to get into the screen and be a part of it. The two were singing the songs together by now, out of tune like two bells but with big smiles on their faces and Alex would stop everything she was doing to look at them feeling her heart fill with joy at that sight.

Sloane loved staying with them and neither of the women complained about the child's presence. By now she had also gotten used to sleeping together with her aunts and the other teammates envied this relationship, especially Megan who fought every time with Tobin to be able to be the favorite aunt, but it was undoubtedly Bailey. <I'm coming> the woman sat down beside them soon finding Bailey's hand on her thigh letting her know that she was close. She was close to the child but wanted to feel Alex's presence as well, nothing malicious, just a caress that would later bring her certainty.

They had been together for a couple of years that seemed to be passing quickly and in the best of ways, they had even thought about marriage and children but Bailey had confessed her fear in becoming a parent so they had decided to wait, but nothing was stopping them from having evenings together with their niece. <this is the most beautiful part> the little girl lit up as she saw the castle emerge from nowhere, the snow transforming and then molding itself into the protagonist's deepest desires.

The movie soon ended and Alex had to find herself in front of the two looking at her with a big smile on her face. <pop corn> they shouted it together as if they were in each other's head. The woman giggled but nodded and asked Sloane to help her when Bailey's phone started ringing. The phone call did not last long and Bailey started looking for a new movie to watch with Sloane when a thunder intruded on the quiet noises of the house. The girl ended up jumping as she has always had a hidden fear of thunderstorms.

The light that dimmed the world for a moment and then let it fall into the darkness of clouds, the rain that flooded the streets and tapped on the roofs of houses, and most of all that thunderstorm that stopped all the other noises by forcing her ears into its power. Even as a child she had been afraid of it, but then showing it was endearing to the people around her, they hugged her and told her stories about how it was a chariot from the skies catching big rocks that caused those noises but when she had grown up her family had taken her for a childish girl and her cousins had laughed at her.

Bailey steeled herself, however, ending up squeezing her eyes shut when a flash of lightning illuminated the room again. She did not realize she had brought her knees to her chest trembling when a clap of thunder clouded her mind. Alex stopped in the doorway, blocking even Sloane who was reaching for her. She looked at her girlfriend's reaction with a slight sad smile on her lips then lowered her gaze to the little girl. <I think Aunty Bailey needs some cuddles> the little girl nodded quickly running to hug the girl's head.

Alex stood still for a moment, she had never seen her girlfriend in such position, she was the one who usually gave her courage in every situation never being afraid of anything yet, this time it was Bailey who was fragile in front of her eyes and all she wanted was to be by her side and make her feel better. She approached the girl leaving the bowl on the table then put an arm around Bailey's shoulders immediately seeing her shining eyes resting on her figure. Bailey shivered again, a flash making her heart beat so fast she thought it might come out of her chest but Sloane took her face in her small hands looking at her with concern.

<Don't be afraid aunty, I'll protect you> Bailey giggled before smiling tenderly at that scene. She pulled the child towards her squeezing her in a hug that Sloane happily returned. The girl placed a hand on the girl's chest, caressing it as if it would calm her pulse. Alex, who had remained watching them, had tears in her eyes. There was something about that situation that she wanted to tattoo in her mind, she wanted to stop time in that position and stay and watch the two interact in such a tender way. She wanted to carry that memory with her forever, to see it every time she closed her eyes: there was something magical about those quiet evenings that filled her heart with joy.

I don't feel very autistic. I know it's a spectrum or whatever, but I haven't found a single person with even a similar experience to mine, online or irl. And I've looked, I've tried, but all these things that feel wrong with or different about me don't feel like things anyone else experiences. And also, I see all these "relatable" autism posts, and I don't experience any of that. I'm professionally diagnosed, was diagnosed two years ago as a teen (which I know for an AFAB is pretty good) but still, it doesn't feel like I'm autistic at all and I feel like a fake.

Hi there,

It could be from imposter syndrome. Where you doubt you’re autistic. I don’t know much about you personally, so I can’t really say if this is what you’re going through.

Here are some articles about imposter syndrome if you’re interested:

I hope this helps. Maybe my followers can give some more insight. Thank you for the inbox. I hope you have a wonderful day/night. ♥️
