The Myth Of The Anti-Social Autistic

It is a myth that Autistics are anti-social. We are social, it just looks, sounds and feels different to what we’ve all been taught to expect and perform. Some of us experience being non speaking - either some of the time or all of the time. I experience it sometimes, and when I do - it doesn’t automatically mean I don’t want to be around people or communicate with them. It does not make one anti-social because they do not communicate in the way you have been taught is ‘normal’.
