Chapter 14 recapping my unexpected Autism and ADHD year: this week I'm talking about the risks of telling friends and family you think they might be autistic, even if it seems blindingly obvious to you that they are. The first problem is that once the penny's dropped that YOU'VE got autistic traits, you start to see it EVERYWHERE. The second problem is that if YOU'RE on the autism spectrum, the chances your friends and family are too is likely higher.
But you have to tread very carefully with this. A) you might be wrong, and B) if someone's not ready to hear they might be neurodivergent they may well lash out and attack you. The best you can do is share information, share your own experiences, and let people get there on their own, no matter how much you may want to scream "but you're autistic too!"
