I think what that was was you becoming hyper aware of the ways you do struggle and become more judgemental of yourself when socializing. I feel that sometimes.

Associating brain damage or intellectual impairment with our very thoughtful neurotype is bizarre. When a neurotypical kid has an intellectual impairment, who would dream of saying the neurotypical kid has neurotypicalism and then say to every neurotypical they have a disability? Weird.

They thought it was brain damage because I had a regression. It was not just intellectual impairment. I literally forgot how to talk and walk. I woke up babbling and not able to keep myself up. I kept falling down. That’s why they thought it might have been brain damage

Also if someone who is neurotypical has an intellectual impairment then they aren’t neurotypical

Honestly, neurotypicals could just begin to socially explicitly teach innuendo and begin to socially share what they are saying, and most of their unsocial behaviors which unsocially force autistics out would resolve.

I think what it comes down to is making sure everyone is educated on different psychological experiences.

I think psychology should be a mandatory class that encourages empathy and understanding for autistic people, people struggling with mental illness including rare ones, etc.
