This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.

    Hello.

    I’m a neurotypical, 48 y.o. male who has recently started working as a disability support worker.

    Some of my clients are on the ASD and ADHD spectrum and I’m here to try and understand autism and ADHD a little better. I have no (known) prior experience living or interacting with non-neurotypical individuals.

    This is all new to me and I don’t want to make mistakes. I know I will, but I hope that people are patient with me. I will be lurking, and occasionally asking questions. Please forgive me if my questions are offensive, that is not my intention, I am still learning. I just want to be the best support worker I can be.

    If I offend, the more information you can give me, the better I can adjust my language or attitude so as to not offend in future.

    If anyone has any questions for me, then please, ask them. I will answer as honestly and as plainly as I know how.
