Does anyone feel like theyβre missing social cues that neurotypical people understand without being taught? Iβm missing out on career opportunities because of it. Does any type of guide/rulebook exist to effectively mask?
Iβve read somewhere that people who have ADHD are often also autistic. Is it possible that you have undiagnosed mild autism?
The thought crossed my mind. I feel like often after the fact I realize the social cues. Itβs like I pick up on them but Iβm almost too focused on my thoughts/desires to act according to the social cues; then later I regret not acting on those social cues. Iβll have a little voice that says I shouldnβt say/do the thing but the impulse is to strong to stop myself. I guess I donβt know a whole lot about mild autism however, wouldnβt I like not understand the error I made until someone directly explains it?
