So, from what I can tell, and you can correct me if I am wrong, Autistic people receive a lot more information from their surroundings and social interactions. And this additional information is overwhelming for them at times.

Maybe something like a neurotypical person living in a funhouse 24/7. sometimes you can sort of filter out the additional info, but sometimes it is too much?

Does that sound right?
