Autism and confidence?

Post Reply New Topic

Is it true the more confident you act the more stereotypically autistic you are?

Can you please give more about how you define confidence. What actions go along with it.

I find I'm confident at certain subjects or actions.
I find even though I've been doing shows for decades I start out with ice cold hands(one sign of nerves) and then gain confidence as I go along.

Is it internal or external actions verbiage you are asking about. Or perhaps both?

No. I don't see a correlation between confidence (over-confidence?) and having autism.

If anything, autism at the higher-functioning level is often characterized by relatively low self-esteem.

Special K,
I used to describe myself as grandiose with an inferiority complex.

Seems very Van Gogh-ish to me
