minus-squareEndorkend@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up28·1 year agoNot all autistics function well with order. They function well when the baseline world around them maintains predictability. But contrary to others on the spectrum, they do really badly with rigid schedules and rules to follow. I am one of those. When busses don’t ride on time, I’m anxious, even if I don’t take the bus. But for the love of God don’t force me into any sort of schedule because it’ll run me of the rails.
