I’ve seen it been set as ‘targets’ for autistic people to achieve far too many times. When many of us have had negative experiences with our peers, pressuring us into friends will not end well. Especially if it’s not what we want/not ready for it yet
Ultimately we shouldn’t assume friendship is the solution.
For some of us making friends will bring happiness, but not for all of us.
Something I see a lot is NT people assuming
“They need to make more friends, and socialise more” when it comes to autistic people.
But how many of them have even asked the autistic person if this is what they want?
@DJDarren thank you!
@seanwithwords @theautisticcoach Yes I’ve experienced this too when I’m having bad days with my attention, it’s harder to engage with interests. #AuDHD
Matthew | The Autistic CoachBeing both #ActuallyAutistic & #ADHD presents a number of unique challenges. This experience seemingly tears us into two parts at times, but also provides us with some useful tools to take on an NT world. What does being #AuDHD mean to you?
