#ActuallyAutistic #DoubleEmpathyProblem #Neurodivergent

Teaching ‘Social Skills’ according to Neuronormative ideals pathologizes #Autistic folx. This is not just ineffective; it is downright harmful. We are #DifferentNotLess. Instead of asserting a deficit based lens on us, learn our language.
#DoubleEmpathyProblem
Regardless of age or diagnostic status, if you are #autistic your life has been affected by Dr. Damian Milton’s #DoubleEmpathyProblem
Theory. There is no avoiding it. It happens to everyone. It happens disproportionally to us. What happens if you are autistic - and - a #suicide attempt survivor? What if you know about one but not the other... for years?
Those were the questions I asked myself as I set out to thread the connection between Dr. Milton’s theory and my reality as an autistic suicide attempt survivor. Coming this Wednesday, September 11th, 2024.
There will be something here for every autistic person…

Those were the questions I asked myself as I set out to thread the connection between Dr. Milton’s theory and my reality as an autistic suicide attempt survivor, over a week ago. I never imagined that my editor, with The Unexpected Autistic Life, would contact me with what she said a few days ago.
“Hello, I just reviewed this story. I left a few notes. I feel that if you address the suggestions, this story could have a strong chance of being boosted.”
Boosting, on the platform Medium, as I understand, is similar to boosting on Twitter. It greatly increases the chances of the target writing to go viral. For my editor to say I had a strong chance was the first time she’s ever expressed that for my writing. Every time I missed the mark. So often that I stopped believing I would get selected.
Therefore, since Wednesday, her and I have been pouring over the writing making every possible change in the hopes of it being selected for boosting. Exactly what topics does “Discussing Suicide as an Autistic Person Is a Trap” cover?

If you are #autistic the #DoubleEmpathyProblem may be felt DEEPLY. A basecamp is a safe space where people feel a sense of belonging. I have been exploring this and radically inclusive learning spaces with @stimpunks

Absolute TEXTBOOK example of workplace communication problems that #autistic people suffer from. That’s a cross-neurotype miscommunication (CNM).
@milton_damian ‘s #DoubleEmpathyProblem Theory, as I’ve been meaning to say, is accurate because CNMs happen to everyone. Therefore, he found an absolute*. Something that isn’t exclusive to us, but does disproportionally affect us.
@IAmIronMan42522 Boss had issue with something and apparently had tried for a while to address it subtly (which I obviously missed) before hitting me with a big HR-shaped hammer.
Aftermath: I asked why not talk to me first and he explained ☝️, to which I said please be blunt if there's issues.
@autisticrealms @milton_damian Wait till @milton_damian reads the third and final part of my upcoming #AutismParanoiaSeries to be published on Friday, July 12th.
Wait till you see how I used the #DoubleEmpathyProblem Theory to de-pathologize #autism .

#DoubleEmpathyProblem (@milton_damian) is DEEP.
The DOUBLE EMPATHY EXTREME PROBLEM arises from feelings of disconnect; not only from cultural, political, neurodivergent, or any other crosssection of differences but also through #embodiment, or lack thereof

I love threads like these….Helen @AutisticRealms is creating a list of universities/courses where #Monotropism is actually embedded in the curriculum/syllabus. (I have to intentionally embed this & #AutisticMasking & #DoubleEmpathyProblem whenever I can in courses I am taking)
Has anyone included the theory of #monotropism in their university or college course?
If so, please comment below with the name of your university/college, the course title and the name of the person delivering it.
I am creating a resource bank. Thank you.
Excited to announce my new paper "Do you feel me? Autism, Empathic Accuracy and the Double Empathy Problem" published in @journalautism. Reshaping how we understand and view autistic people #Autism #Empathy #DoubleEmpathyProblem #Research #Neurodiversity

MoM: March 25 - the social self, the group mind, and the double empathy problem.

In case you weren’t aware, #autism isn’t outgrown - or - diminished through speech preparation.
No matter what we do, the #DoubleEmpathyProblem will still happen because people falsely believe that #Autism is curable in some form or another.
Neither eugenics nor therapy changes #autistic neurology.
Period.
@hi_its_annaleah @Shrink_at_Large Another example of #autistic people being #discriminated against because of the #DoubleEmpathyProblem ..
