I've found that exercise and manual labour makes my movements and body language more natural, especially when walking. So to everyone who finds that they look awkward when moving around, I suggest trying to either exercise or do some heavy work in the yard or something.

I would especially recommend making sure your upper back is in shape, be it through sports, work or specific training exercises. When the upper back muscles are in shape, proper posture comes naturally. Especially archery training helped me to adopt an open posture, whereas previously I had a natural tendency to walk somewhat hunched.

As a person with autism myself, I want to say thank you for mentioning that people with autism need to find a peer to help them (if need be) on these social cues. There is one point of feedback though. People with autism follow different guidelines of social cues and that is untrainable. Mentoring would help but generalized situations often fall short on the reality for them. Its like we think we learn him to fish but instead he just got the fish to eat for that day... Just thought to chip than in as autism expert for those watching the video :)
@robbgregorrichard10094 жыл бұрын
Hello @Robert V. , I agree with you with most of what you say. I have also autism and as a young lad, I used to struggle very much with these things. However, as someone who got enough luck to have been trained and worked in the military prior to my diagnosis, I got the opportunity to be corrected on my posture and the aspects of body language dealt with in this video during that time. But true to say that more subtle cues are, unfortunately, difficult to understand... Or I understand through other things. So, anyhow, I still think that such video would be helpful for some of us. Even if we are all différent...

@Seaworth It is, though .Autism is a separate neurology which by definition affects both how we take in information and use it. Robert's commenting specifically that in situations that aren't one to one to a situation we have been taught a response to, we often do not consider them similar in the way a neurotypical person would and therefore won't apply a taught response to them. I have this issue somewhat regularly, even though I'm passable at masking. Scripting can help, but it's inauthentic and frankly stressful.

As I often say ... if you meet one person with ASD - you've met one person with autism. Everyone presents differently. There's a lot of high functioning autism (Aspergers) in my family. We can and have learned non-verbal communication, but it's conscious learning, and takes practice to get right. Having a few rules can get you started, but then there are all the exceptions, cultural differences, code switching ... these are important skills, and while not everyone can learn them, it's always worth the effort to try.
