PRESENTATION OUTLINE
1.
I think in colors
My colors have sound and movement
I hear spoken words and my brain finds a picture match
People with Autism are visual thinkers
We do not know that others do not think in pictures
My brain cannot always quickly translate words to pictures

3.
I am in the same world as others around me
They just cannot always see my world
Our experience of the world is different
I can hear and see in a much more robust way

If we used an autistic's experience as the norm
Then everyone else would come up very lacking

What most people perceive and label as normal

Accommodations
Autistics are required to make accmomodations daily
The world is not set up in a neurologically friendly way
It takes us longer to take in information
This processing delay is a huge disadvantage for us
I am expected to accommodate for myself

In our fast paced world I am expected to act appropriately as "neurotypicals" act.

The sheer amount of accommodations we are required to make each day is incredibly higher than "neurotypicals".

Apples to oranges
You are know as a good person
You make accommodations for me
Whereas I am a bad person
When I fail at accommodating for my own differences

Autism is not "less than"
We have a diagnosis, not a flawed humanity
We have a different way of thinking
We have a different operating system
We have a different way of experiencing the world
We struggle just to fit into your world

Turning over
thoughts in my head

18.
Inflexible thinking
I need to turn a thought over
Make room in my head and thoughts
So that I can consider an alternative
Visual thinkers need a visual way to change their thinking
Or a visual way to start and stop thinking about things
