“Our [neurotypicals] neurological systems help by filtering out excessive stimulation, telling us when we're hungry or tired (...). People with autism, primarily due to the underlying neurology (the way the brain's wiring works), are unusually vulnerable to everyday emotional and physiological challenges. So they experience more feelings of discomfort, anxiety, and confusion than others.”
