Autism and empathy: internal fog

When intuitive emotional reading doesn't come naturally, many autistic people develop compensatory strategies: learning to decode emotions through observation and logic.

It requires enormous mental energy, which is why it can break down under social pressure or fatigue. The effort itself is an expression of caring, even if it doesn't look like the empathy people expect.
