Something we should all learn about NTs

Post Reply New Topic

First off for people who do not know NTs are just regular people not on the autism spectrum.


Most people have no idea what autism is much less it's on a spectrum much like a rainbow.
Each individual symptiom is on a spectrum.

People on the spectrum are a small minority and we have to cope in the NT world.

It is not realistic to expect that many people not on the spectrum will ever understand what autism really is.
I have never been able to form a relatioship however for many people relationships falling apart form a big part of their lives.

NTs are as fixed into their pattern of thinking as we are into ours.
We are the minority we are the ones that need to make the effort.

It's not fair but very few things in life are.

we should never be ashamed of what we see.

Many NTs have trouble keeping jobs and relationships, too.

NT - Autistic relationships should be like all successful relationships. Both sides need to compromise.

Compromise does not mean to subjegation to the NT world just because they are the majority and we can semingly do nothing about it. Complete subjegation inevitably means we will fail at some point. It leads us to burnout and all sorts of mental illnesses. "Passing as NT" is a tool that helps us, but it should never be done out of belief that we are inferior because we are a minority.

It will probably never be fair but that does not mean we have to accept this level of unfairness. I will never accept the belief that autistics are seemingly the only minority that needs to accept subjection without question just because it has always been this way.
