@autisticayla: this is how most of my conversations with my ND friends go... both of us having two completely separate conversations 😅😂 yet somehow related!! this is one of the social struggles i face being AuDHD. it can be hard to know when it's appropriate to ask questions, share about my experience, or simply listen. at the end of the day, i have people that accept me (even if i can't stop talking about my current hyperfixation) #autism #audhd #actuallyautistic #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #neurodiverse
I think it's a difference of identifying the topic. NT communication the topic is cooking/ Pizza. The ND topic is what we did last night

I catch myself doing this alot with any kind of person and then I start to get super anxious that they think I'm trying to make things about me. I'm listening, I'm sharing and trying to show I get it.

The fact that no typical people have conversations that aren’t based in reciprocity and to one another always shocks me, lol it’s always one person talking at the other, and then waiting to respond.

gick and borty :
but to me it sounds like the pizza person wasn’t done talking and they would have rather shared everything about their pizza experience in one go

My bf has to let me know when the conversation isn’t supposed to go somewhere. I have autism and I can’t stand when the conversations keep going like this unless I’m told it will😂

I've been seeing people talk about how you have to ask questions to have a conversation and like, the questions are implied? aren't NT people supposed to be able to read between the lines???

Sometimes I catch myself doing this with neurological people who are looking at me odd for it. Automatically change over to focusing on their thing and asking questions but it's sooo boring

I wish people spoke to me this way but my friends are nt and they think I'm rude or just can't keep up. I get bored with slow convos which makes me feel bad for not paying attention to them

It’s me Mario 🐻 :
This is why I have to have friends who are ND as well. So we can do this back and forth with each other without negative nervous system input. I accept and understand that NT find this rude. But it means that we are not compatible. I would have to mask and that’s not something I can do in a friendship past casual chat at work/etc.

This is my favourite way to talk. It upsets me that neurotypical people don’t talk like this because now we’re both sharing our things and having a good time

ugh I wish i had someone to talk to who gets this, when you do this with neurotypicals they think you’re self obsessed

I feel like this is why neurotic calls feel like people on the spectrum or with ADHD tend to talk about themselves too much but it’s like no. I relate to this topic even though it seems unrelated.
