Sometimes I feel like having autism makes it hard to help people? Like I have a hard time ignoring strangers that need help. But then a good amount of times i do help them, they look at me super strange and it just ends up being awkward and i regret trying. I think maybe sometimes i try to help with something a stranger just shouldnt be helping with. Im a mom so I always want to help other moms that need it but obviously we arent trusting strangers offering to hold the baby so the mom can do whatever theyre struggling with. Ive been debating this post for days now , and Im now struggling to think of exact situations that I was going to include to give better context. Oh and just talking too much, I know that one is common! I always try to keep telling myself to stop talking or dont talk too fast. Ive developed this weird facial thing where it feels like my jaw literally twitches or something because im talking too fast, and my eye might twitch as well. I often have to stop talking so i can slow down and think about what im trying to say. I even have trouble putting the words in the right order for a sentence while talking sometimes
