Let me be clear: I don’t want to become known, famous or anything like that.
My aim is to make the autism spectrum known in society. Unfortunately, in everyday life you only meet very few people who know that autism is not just what you see in films, but that autism is much more diverse and includes many contradictions.
These contradictions can sometimes be found in one and the same person and in others, you have to know several people affected to notice them.
This often makes autism something difficult to understand, something that autistic people themselves often cannot explain, an outsider without autism usually doesn’t understand at all and sometimes doesn’t even know that they don’t understand.
So among autistic people there are not only introverts, strange-looking computer specialists and scientists who can memorize pages of facts and calculate better than any pocket calculator. But also autistic people who are friendly, like to deal with other people and have occasionally even learned a profession in the social sector and sometimes also work in this area. Special interests or even high talents, which can usually be found in areas that no one else thinks about, are possible but not mandatory.
But I would also like to make my fellow human beings more aware and more sensitive to the different perceptions of autistic people. Many behavior pattern are based on perceptions, because autistic people often behave differently when they perceive things differently.
