Aspies and Dyslexics?

Post Reply New Topic

Do you find as an aspie you find it easier to communicate with Dyslexic people? I find really well socially versed NTs impossible to have a conversation with but Dyslexics are A LOT easier. Don't get me wrong dyslexics can be tricky at times but there less complicated than NTs. So far in my life every NT i have met are easy for me to communicate with. It could be because i have a little bit of dyslexia myself?

Do you think its because Dyslexics are closer to the spectrum than NTs are?

I think Dyslexia is a lot more on the edge of the spectrum than aspergers.

What is weird about Dyselxics though is that they have no problems communicating with NTs (even the socially adapt ones).

Its like they can communicate fine both with aspies and NTs.

Dyslexia is apparently common with autism. I imagine that dyslexics also have some kind of neurological difference.

Like I said though Dyslexics can communicate with NTs quite well I think????????????????

NTs meh there stressful for me

I know one dyslexic person and she communicates expertly with NTs, but she explained to me that her mom basically tutored her when she was little about networking and making connections and convincing people of things. So I don't know whether her expertise has anything to do with her dyslexia--most likely, it has more to do with her having had a mom who was a good teacher and a good communicator herself.

She also communicates quite handily with me and with non-NTs in general.

There are many dyslexic people in my family and most of them can communicate and live well, even my cousin who has ADHD as well, she really is a popular girl and has a normal life; the only one who had trouble with other had a lisp and everybody used to tease him at school because he couldn't read properly but now he's an adult and everything is fine.

I do think the major issue for them is reading and spelling.

One of my best friends is dyslexic and he has LOADS of friends and partys every weekend round his house. He is basiclly a legend amongst my friends and groups of people he associates with. maybe dyslexics have a few problems picking up cues......? My dyslexic friend said as a kid he was "Withdrawn, reclusive and weird" much like me

Like me though he does have shyness issues and problems controlling anger, agrresion and stress. like me as well at times he stutters his words.

Funnly enough i have a friend with ADHD who i can easily talk too (he's not as easy as my dyslexic friend though). My other friends who are NTs are like math to me impossible to get a decent conversation with yet my ADHD and Dyslexic friend have no real problems talking to them and even if they did it would be minor problems.
