Wow, such a simple but powerful message! As someone on the Autism Spectrum, I can so identify with the sentiment in this post. To be honest though, being an Aspie I tend to skip the awareness of what other people think of me. It isn't that this doesn't matter to me – just that I don't recognise it for what it is.
