I'm excited to see what everyone else's said, if we have a lot in common, and if some of us have some funny stuff too.

- a long time without two-way communication, now he can adapt because it's expected of him
- mostly uniform "social smile" with little variation
- generally a rather uniform and seemingly distant facial expression
- social chatting only with family members, not others
- little interest in other kids his age, rarely (if at all) being the one to initiate contact
Found this in some doctors notes from a few years back, not sure if it was specifically autism related but it seems close enough :P
It's kinda funny now seeing my smile at the time being described with little variation and sometimes seeming sightly condescending. Makes me wonder how much of that was just me trying to smile at appropriate times
What are uniform and distant facial expressions?? This is what I'm imagining:
lol. Is that an HDMI port as mouth? :P
Basically meant a neutral facial expression with little variation, mostly staying the same. And distant as in "this has nothing to do with me" or "whatever..."
lol
😆
Is that an HDMI port as mouth? :P
It looks like one! But what I was going for was a forced smile.
distant as in "this has nothing to do with me" or "whatever..."
ohhh yeahhhh, I know that feeling. I'm going to pay attention to see if I notice a resembling facial expression.
My guess is that there were too many strangers around for my liking so I just kinda retracted myself to wait and see. Which isn't all that helpful when you're the one to be assessed :D
