Can you be autistic if loud sounds, bright lights, or clothing textures don’t bother you? It’s a common question, especially if you’re exploring autism as an adult and don’t relate to every example you see online.
In this episode, we look at sensory differences in autism and why they can vary so much from person to person. Some autistic people find certain sensations overwhelming. Others seek out sensory input, notice different sensitivities, or don’t see sensory issues as a major part of their lives.
We also explore why one trait alone cannot confirm or rule out an autism diagnosis. If you’re searching for information about autism symptoms in adults or Asperger’s syndrome, this episode can help you think about your experiences without trying to fit yourself into someone else’s checklist.
