Rebecca Legowski@heathen_cat wow, that's really interesting. What is selective mutism?
@rlegowski1
Selective mutism as I understand it is not being able to speak verbally either for a temporary capacity or in a certain situation. For me if I've spent a weekend say at a convention I become extremely overwhelmed mentally and talking is a lot harder than using text. Some people with autism find talking a lot more difficult as well or have trouble getting people to understand them when they do talk so I find this to be a pretty useful tool
