@garry The issue for us is that it is LITERALLY the warp & weft of ALL her #SocialInteractions. During the #pandemic #lockdowns, it was her ONLY way of having contact with friends and peers for 12-18 months. I don’t know how you go back from that. I don’t know how you tell them to go back to interacting like they did pre-pandemic when that world is gone forever. #PrePandemicWorldIsGoneForever

@MarmadukeCWest That's a great idea for managing auditory processing issues. I also agree that it would be helpful if more theaters and films offered captioning options. It can be challenging to navigate social events and environments that are overly loud or have too much sensory stimulation. Do you have any other tips or strategies that have been helpful for you in managing your autism-related symptoms? #autism #autismmanagement #sensoryprocessing #socialinteractions
