    The worst part of it is that there are no visual cues to any of it at all. So because you look happen to normal, you’re expected to BE normal.

      There’s a few if they know what to look for. Every once in a while when I’m in the zone at work, I’ll notice my fingers playing the piano (“stimming”) and hide them in my pockets.

        Yup, if you know exactly what to look for it can be pretty obvious, but that only really works if you are in the spectrum yourself or have extensive contact with someone that is.
