Sure, but don’t you think talking over other people still isn’t appropriate to do? No matter what condition/ reasons you have for doing so, I think if you were “raised right” you would refrain from doing so, or at least catch yourself be apologetic about it. We can be understanding and empathetic and can still acknowledge it isn’t the right thing to do.
When autism or trauma comes into the equation, you might watch yourself as words spill out of your mouth. You have time to think ‘Oh no, I did an unsocial thing again.’ as you try and make yourself shut up in a somewhat gracious way, which in reality will seem more like a talking robot running out of battery power mid-sentence. Other people are doing their best to ignore you and your hopeless blabbermouth. Yay, it’s socializing time.
I’ve had people doubt my autism self diagnosis before witnessing me trying to behave like a human being in a group setting. They usually don’t question it after.
So, going on about how it’s still inappropriate is a little like telling a person in a wheelchair how it’s inappropriate to remain sitting in some situations. They are probable aware and yet they can’t really change much about the way they function?
