Original sentence: Communication difficulties may contribute to autistic people becoming anxious or depressed.Facial expressions, movements, and gestures may be easily understood by some other autistics, but do not match those used by neurotypicals.Since neurotypicals are often unfamiliar with the autistic body language, and since autistic natural language may not tend towards speech, autistic people often struggle to let others know what they need.Some children with relatively good language skills speak like little adults, rather than utilizing the immature "kid-speak" that is common in their neurotypical peers.The body language of autistics can be difficult for neurotypicals to understand
Edited sentence: As autistic people grow up, the accumulation of mistreatment, constant rejection from neurotypicals assuming that differences are something to "cure," and constantly being misunderstood by neurotypicals refusing to help bridge the neurological gap logically causes them to become anxious or depressed.Facial expressions, movements, and gestures are appropriate for and easily understood by other autistics, but do not match those used by neurotypicals.Some children with relatively good language skills speak like little adults, rather than falling into the immature "kid-speak" that is common in their neurotypical peers.The body language of autistics is uniquely designed for other autistics, and therefore can be difficult for neurotypicals to understand.With neurotypicals often refusing to learn the autistic body language, and with autistic natural language not tending towards speech, autistic people often are forced to struggle to let others know what they need
