Autism Characteristics

5:03 pm By Lawrence

The characteristics of autism are, unfortunately, staples of the disorder. However, what are these characteristics? The most obvious characteristic I’ve found can be a necessity for motion like rocking or shaking.

I’ve found in my later years that bass-filled music really affects me positively on a mental level. Another characteristic that some autistic people tend to have is an obsessive nature with a variety of things depending on the individual such as science, math, pop culture, writing, and more.

Another characteristic that really affects me personally is an aversion to silences. I feel that this aversion comes from a weird adrenal sense that I have where traumatic incidents for me seem to slow down time and mute all noise. This seems the opposite of how most neurotypicals respond in that sense.

Noise tends to help me be more attuned to the potential of that circumstance to better avoid it. The Autistic stereotype/staple of avoiding eye contact, I’ve largely found to be true.

Not to toot my own horn too much, but I’ve gotten better at the eye contact issue. I suppose that my solution for the eye contact issue would be familiarity with or the positive vs negative energy that I get from the person that I’m interacting with.

I also don’t know if this is particularly a tick, but I’ve noticed that I have a certain sense of disorganization. I…don’t have an exact answer for this issue at this time.

The closest answer that I would bring up in regards to organizational help/solutions would be using apps like Trello, Google calendar, and anything super mobile. Having a regular list of things that I’m working on WHERE/WHENEVER I am greatly helps me to stay coordinated.

I hope that these tips and tricks help you to understand just SOME of the issues that you’re presented with as someone on the spectrum.

Horror movies tend to come in one of two fashions. The first is the classic more “highbrow” atmospheric style of something akin to a classic haunted house scenario where the smallest wind howl or next floorboard creek could be a….PRELUDE TO DOOM!
