In this blog I’m going to write about how autism affects my everyday life. Unfortunately there is no cure and I will always have to have constant 24/7 care for the rest of my life.
Conversation has always been difficult for me it doesn’t matter if the person is talking slow or fast I still need to process ever word in my brain to be able to understand. This is why I need constant translation from someone whether it’s face to face or on a tv screen such as subtitles. People have always questioned me why I have always put subtitles on movies or tv shows and it really angers me as they say it in such a negative way as if I’m an alien or something.
I have always read a lot since a young age but my spelling had never been that good. I’m not dyslexic (however my father is) but I can find if difficult to write words or say the wrong words by accident.
Most autistic people see negativity all the time and not a single positive vibe around them even when there is positivity. For example I’m a musician and singer, no one has ever complimented me once even in university. Everyone laughed and said I couldn’t sing and was better as a pianist or saxophonist. Having found out the truth from a close friend of mine that it wasn’t at all true I was quite shocked to find out people actually appreciated what I did and still do.
