Do Neurotypical people Dislike Autistic People?

In this episode, I talk about something many autistic people quietly experience but rarely discuss openly: the feeling that some people seem uncomfortable with us almost immediately. Is it paranoia, trauma, misunderstanding… or is something else actually happening? This episode also explores masking, rejection, double empathy, and the psychological impact of constantly being misunderstood.    • Advocating for yourself when you're autistic   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 0:00 Do NT's not like Autistic people? 1:19 Getting picked on 2:28 How targets are chosen 4:34 Realising what goes wrong 5:15 A guy walks into a bar (story) 6:18 I'd love to punch you in the face 8:41 Why I was singled out 10:27 What can we do about it? 11:40 Self defense 13:14 Childhood trauma 13:41 Stress Induction in self defense (story) 16:47 Easy targets 17:31 Winding down
