in Autism and neurodiversity
I've realised that alot of the time I don't know when it's my turn to speak.  People have said to me are you going to let me finish talking or are you going to keep interrupting me . I know this also is an Adhd trait . I'm 98 per cent sure I have Adhd . The Autism triats are becoming more clearer to me .

    Sorry did that wrong

    All my life I have gotten into trouble for talking over people. Knowing that I do it doesnt mean I realize when I'm doing it or that I can control it or stop it. So I've been told I'm rude a gazillion times. Yes it's an autistic thing, I was told at my diagnosis. 
    (Another I get into trouble for is being blunt or lacking any tact, like just say it how it is!  :smile: )
