Oh my, I wanted to give this article a serious read but then in the first paragraph it says that the author works at the "Tizard" center! Haha

Anyway, will keep reading

This paragraph is interesting. Does it suggest that all autistic people experience the world the same way and thus can connect with each other better? Or is it more along the lines of they can connect over their experience of being misunderstood by others?

I have a friend who is going through something like this, where he's constantly accusing everyone of not understanding him. It's kinda tough though, because he wasn't always like this, and he's also really aggressive about it, and it's causing tensions in his marriage and friendships. So we're all wondering what changed and how to help him.
