““Hypersensitivities occur when sensitivities are strongly heightened, many times uncomfortably so. Hypo-sensitivities occur when there is a lesser reaction to a sensation than one would expect, or else a delay in the reaction between the stimulus and the response. Given that many people cannot imagine what an autistic's sensory processing capabilities look like, it might be wise to give autistics the benefit of the doubt when they say they have sensitivities.””
