Autistic perspective
The autistic perspective refers to the unique ways individuals on the autism spectrum experience and interpret the world. This includes differences in social interactions, sensory processing, communication, and thinking patterns. Many autistic individuals may have heightened sensitivity to sensory inputs or prefer routine and structure. They may see details and patterns that others overlook, leading to exceptional skills in specific areas. Understanding this perspective fosters greater empathy and supports effective communication, allowing society to appreciate the diverse ways people perceive and engage with their environment. Recognizing these differences helps create more inclusive communities.
