🚫 Myth: Autistic teens prefer to be alone.
✅ Reality: Many want connection — social challenges don’t mean lack of interest.

Wanting people and struggling with social cues can exist at the same time. 🤍

🚫 Myth: Autistic teenagers lack empathy.
✅ Reality: Many autistic teens feel empathy deeply — they may just express it differently.
