I've been legally blind my whole life, have only 75% hearing in one ear, 25% int he other. My vision is 20/800 from Choroid coloboma brought on by Dandy-Walker Syndrome. I'm a mild Aspie, and have enough of the characteristics - though not all - that I fit in all but it being a certain clinical impairment.
But why I'm asking is, stimuli just don't come at me like other Aspies have them.
So, my question is, if you are getting older and have impairments, does it help? Or, if you are younger, do you think you would hve more if you didn't have sight or hearing impairments?
Because, I've learned through research that visually impaired peoples till pick up a lot of cues that I don't,a nd likely others on here don't. And, I just wondered if others have the same thoughts I find myself coing to lately - that it's looking mroe and more like I am an Aspie for sure, albeit still a very mild one.
