Most people who are on the Autism Spectrum can face high levels of Aniexies through everyday lives, which causes them stress, which is not an intentional thing only that even in the same ways people have to face in life, they are just more sensitive to situations, etc compared to other people. For example; this could mean route, being taken out of their own comfort zone, getting used to new ways of doing things, etc.
For example; the lockdown and not been able to go to their workplace, working online if they work, needing someone to support them, and teach them the new way compared to the way they are used. They may become alarmed by sudden surprises, without anyone making them aware or and preparing them. To how sensitive they are this can cause them to panic and stress even though no one means to cause them that, which can affect most people emotionally and increase Anxiety levels.
This gets them misunderstood to being someone they are not or and someone they don't want to be. Most people may think they want to be the center of attention, the most important person in the work, selfish, etc, which not the case. We must remember that Autism is an unawareness of the world around the person unless they are told they may have hurt someone's feelings for eg; they don't realize that. In some areas, if not all they may take a while to realize but once they realize they are very sorry.
In fact, there can be situations where they worry for example whether or not they have upset someone or not, that plays on their minds, stresses them out, etc until someone makes them aware if they get told they have they feel bad about it. This may cause them to overreact, over think, something may seem to them worse than what it really may be, etc Just because they face these problems, yes they like them to be aware of understanding, etc but also not to be treated or misunderstood for people to think they shouldn't be treated any differently to anyone else would be.
Most people with ASD can be hypersensitive, sensitive to sounds, taste, touch, feel, etc, not everyone is sensitive to all of them, this can vary from person to person, some it can be one thing, others a few, and others all.
I am trying to research to find out whether not how high the levels of Anxiety a person faces depends on the function level of Autism someone has or not. According to what I have read most people can sensitive to social situations, where they may avoid communicating with people as much as possible because may worry they may say or something wrong in the mind of others righty or wrongly, mainly the more they become aware they may cross misunderstanding with people without meaning to but this is not necessary they can everyone. However' there are ways and means of working around this such as confidence, social skills, etc. Not saying they don't get on with those without Autism but they are pretty much likely to be on the same wave as others who may face Autism. https://www.anxiety.org/autism-spectrum-disorder-anxiety-strategies
