seanwithwords, I have a question for my @actuallyautistic friends...
is the constant internal dialogue a function of Autism's "bottom-up" processing, or a function of shame-based masking?
I'm wondering if I'll ever be able to just act or speak without that layer. should I be trying to act/speak thru the layer of dialogue or should I just let it happen & be less anxious about it?
I guess I'm wondering if it comes from my masking coping strategies or if it's more ingrained and unavoidable
