My Autistic Experience of the Human Communication Spectrum
Channel: Lyric Rivera - Neurodivergent Rebel
Date: 2022-05-11

Not knowing that I was Autistic for the first 29 years of my life, meant that I had a lot of miscommunications with other people, because I did not understand the differences in Autistic and non-Autistic communication, or the differences in human communication, and how my communications were often being misinterpreted by the people around me; and, also, how I was constantly misinterpreting what other people were trying to communicate with me, because I didn't understand communication differences, and I assumed that everyone communicated like me. When you do this, it's really hard to decode other people's intentions. 

Patreon members and YouTube channel members had access to this video on Feb 28, 2022. The video’s public release will be May 11, 2022 - several months early. 

ID: Lyric, a pale skinned nonbinary person with short green, teal, purple, pink, orange, and yellow hair with shaved sides and jet black roots is sitting behind a white microphone in an RV with dark wood panel walls. The words "Human Communication is a Spectrum " floats in front of them in pale teal and green letters.

It's important that we all understand, that as Autistic People, there is not a unified autistic experience. We all have different opinions and very different experience, and I think it's great to share those things. 

If you're a NeuroTypical watching, remember that this is just my experience as one NeuroDivergent Person. 

Hopefully, this video will inspire other NeuroDivergent People to share their experiences as well, how they relate, and maybe even do not relate in the comments below. 

I encourage you to listen to, and read, as many Autistic experiences as possible to best understand Autistic People.

I would LOVE to see more Autism vlogs by #ActuallyAutistic People.
