Anyone with ASD without internal social dialogues

Post Reply New Topic

So afaik I dont have a constant internal analysis when speaking to people. My mind is totally silent. Im terrible socially and I might start doing it to help me socially as it might be really useful but its not natural. Anyone diagnosed who just bumbles their way through social interactions unsucessfully.

I tend to analyse the conversation afterwards however. What people with autism do during a conversation, I do after it

Same here.

I also prepare for interactions - i'll run through various scenarios and rehearse monologues. I think that what defines the higher end of the spectrum (this includes people who might be considered NT ) is the analytic approach to socialising. There was a thread which quoted a psych who stated as much. Where social animals tend to just "do it" people like me (whatever manner of beast I am) need to analyse review and explore all the social permuatations

I don't have it either.
