I'm not the same person but I can definitely attribute some negative symptoms of autism in my life.

The biggest negative symptom and limiting factor for me personally is the overstimulation. I can be perfectly comfortable in an extremely chaotic environment and then suddenly with no warning start perceiving every single tiny detail around me.

Touch. Sound. Smell. Temperature. Air currents. THE BUZZING OF ELECTRICITY FLOWING THROUGH WIRES.

It's triggered several panic attacks throughout my life. 0/10 would only recommend for use as torture.

Ungh the electricity in wires is killer.

Sometimes it oscillates with my tinnitus, which is super fun..

Then mix that with a brain that MUST process all lines of conversation and various other sensations around it, and you’ve got a recipe for quick overwhelm, and nobody has a clue why I’m suddenly edgy af.

Thanks for sharing that, the physiological stuff seems to be the hardest to live with, as it's impossible to ignore or control.
