However, difficulties with interoception and alexithymia, which are common in autistic people, can make this identification difficult. The teenager may sense that something is wrong without knowing precisely what they need.<\/pee>\n<h3>Difficulty Finding the Words<\/h3>\n<pee>Even when the need is identified, finding the words to express it can be a challenge. Emotional and relational language is not always easily accessible, especially in stressful moments.<\/pee>\n<h3>Fear of Judgment<\/h3>\n<pee>The teenager may fear being judged, appearing &#8220;weird,&#8221; weak, or difficult. This fear can lead them to remain silent about their needs rather than risk rejection.<\/pee>\n<h3>Explanation Fatigue<\/h3>\n<pee>Having to explain their autistic functioning to each new person, over and over again, is exhausting. The teenager may eventually give up on communicating rather than having to explain everything again.<\/pee>\n<h3>Difficulty Interrupting or Asserting Oneself<\/h3>\n<pee>In a class, group conversation, or family meeting, the teenager may have trouble finding the appropriate moment to express a need or to allow themselves to do so.<\/pee>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"dynseo-section\">\n<h2 id=\"section-3\">Different Interlocutors and Their Specificities<\/h2>\n<pee>Communicating needs must be adapted to the interlocutor.<\/pee>\n<h3>Communicating with Parents<\/h3>\n<pee>With parents, the level of familiarity is generally high. The teenager can (ideally) be more direct and less filtered. Parents can learn to recognize non-verbal signals.<\/pee>\n<pee>The main challenge is often maintaining open communication at an age when teenagers naturally tend to distance themselves from their parents. Creating regular, non-confrontational exchange moments can help.<\/pee>\n<h3>Communicating with Teachers<\/h3>\n<pee>With teachers, communication must be more formal. The teenager generally doesn&#8217;t have the time or context for lengthy explanations.<\/pee>\n<pee>Tools prepared in advance (exit card, agreed-upon signal, accommodations formalized in the IEP\/504 plan) allow essential needs to be communicated without having to explain everything each time.<\/pee>\n<h3>Communicating with Peers<\/h3>\n<pee>With friends, the challenge is finding a balance between authenticity and protection. The teenager can choose to talk about their autism with certain close friends, or simply express their preferences without explaining them through autism.<\/pee>\n<pee>With less close classmates, socially acceptable formulations allow needs to be expressed without exposing oneself: &#8220;I need to get some fresh air,&#8221; &#8220;I&#8217;m tired,&#8221; &#8220;I have a headache.&#8221;<\/pee>\n<h3>Communicating with Professionals<\/h3>\n<pee>With healthcare professionals, educators, or other support staff, more technical communication is possible and often welcome. The teenager can use precise autism vocabulary: sensory overload, proprioceptive need, alexithymia.<\/pee>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"section-divider\">\u25c6 \u25c6 \u25c6<\/div>\n<section class=\"dynseo-section\">\n<h2 id=\"section-4\">Tools to Facilitate Communication<\/h2>\n<pee>Different tools can facilitate communicating needs.<\/pee>\n<h3>Communication Cards<\/h3>\n<pee>Cards prepared in advance can be shown rather than having to verbalize. A &#8220;I need a break&#8221; card, a card with a color code (green\/orange\/red) to indicate overload level, an &#8220;I can&#8217;t speak right now&#8221; card.<\/pee>\n<pee>These cards are particularly useful in stressful moments when speech becomes difficult.<\/pee>\n<h3>Prepared Scripts<\/h3>\n<pee>Phrases or formulations prepared in advance for different situations allow communication without having to improvise under stress.<\/pee>\n<pee>For example: &#8220;I&#8217;m feeling a bit overwhelmed, I&#8217;m going to take five minutes outside&#8221; or &#8220;Could we lower the lights? It&#8217;s difficult for me.&#8221;<\/pee>\n<h3>Written Supports<\/h3>\n<pee>Some teenagers express themselves better in writing than orally. Text messages, written notes, emails can be used to communicate important needs.<\/pee>\n<pee>A written document explaining the teenager&#8217;s functioning can be shared with teachers at the beginning of the year, avoiding having to re-explain everything orally.<\/pee>\n<h3>Non-Verbal Signals<\/h3>\n<pee>Signals agreed upon with loved ones allow discreet communication. A gesture, a code word, a text message can indicate &#8220;I need to leave,&#8221; &#8220;I need help,&#8221; &#8220;I&#8217;m overloaded.&#8221;<\/pee>\n<h3>Visual Supports<\/h3>\n<pee>Images, pictograms, visual scales can help communicate states that are difficult to verbalize. A scale from 1 to 10 for stress level, images of different emotions or sensations.<\/pee>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"dynseo-section\">\n<h2 id=\"section-5\">Developing Self-Advocacy Skills<\/h2>\n<pee>Self-advocacy is the ability to defend one&#8217;s own rights and communicate one&#8217;s needs effectively. This skill develops progressively.<\/pee>\n<h3>Starting with Self-Knowledge<\/h3>\n<pee>Before communicating needs to others, the teenager must know them themselves. Self-observation, reflection on their functioning, identification of what helps and what harms are the first steps.<\/pee>\n<h3>Practicing in Safe Contexts<\/h3>\n<pee>Communicating needs can first be practiced in safe contexts (with parents, with a trusted professional) before being extended to more difficult contexts.<\/pee>\n<h3>Using Role-Play<\/h3>\n<pee>Playing out scenarios allows practicing formulations, anticipating possible reactions, and developing confidence.<\/pee>\n<h3>Learning from Experience<\/h3>\n<pee>After each situation where the teenager has (or hasn&#8217;t) communicated a need, reviewing what worked or didn&#8217;t helps refine strategies.<\/pee>\n<h3>Accepting the Right to Have Needs<\/h3>\n<pee>An often underestimated obstacle is the teenager&#8217;s conviction that they don&#8217;t have the right to have different needs or to express them. Working on this self-acceptance is fundamental to self-advocacy.<\/pee>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"dynseo-section\">\n<h2 id=\"section-6\">Formulations That Work<\/h2>\n<pee>Certain types of formulations are generally more effective than others.<\/pee>\n<h3>Being Concrete and Specific<\/h3>\n<pee>&#8220;I need to sit near the window&#8221; is more actionable than &#8220;The class stresses me out.&#8221;<\/pee>\n<h3>Using &#8220;I&#8221; Statements<\/h3>\n<pee>&#8220;I need to&#8230;&#8221; is less likely to provoke a defensive reaction than &#8220;You should&#8230;&#8221; or &#8220;It&#8217;s too&#8230;&#8221;<\/pee>\n<h3>Proposing Solutions<\/h3>\n<pee>&#8220;Could I step out for a few minutes when the noise becomes too loud?&#8221; is easier to accept than a simple complaint.<\/pee>\n<h3>Explaining Without Over-Explaining<\/h3>\n<pee>Giving a brief explanation can help understanding, but lengthy justifications are not necessary. &#8220;The cafeteria noise is difficult for me, could I eat in a quieter place?&#8221; is sufficient.<\/pee>\n<h3>Accepting &#8220;No&#8221; While Persisting<\/h3>\n<pee>Sometimes a first request is refused. The teenager can accept this refusal while looking for other ways to obtain what they need, or by reformulating their request differently.<\/pee>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"section-divider\">\u25c6 \u25c6 \u25c6<\/div>\n<section class=\"dynseo-section\">\n<h2 id=\"section-7\">The Role of Parents in Developing This Skill<\/h2>\n<pee>Parents play a crucial role in developing their teenager&#8217;s ability to communicate their needs.<\/pee>\n<h3>Modeling Communication<\/h3>\n<pee>Show your teenager how you communicate your own needs. Verbalize your process: &#8220;I&#8217;m feeling tired, I&#8217;m going to sit down for a moment.&#8221;<\/pee>\n<h3>Creating an Environment Where Expressing Needs Is Valued<\/h3>\n<pee>Respond positively when your teenager expresses a need, even if you can&#8217;t always meet it. The act of expressing the need is already a success to be valued.<\/pee>\n<h3>Helping to Identify and Name Needs<\/h3>\n<pee>Help your teenager put words to what they&#8217;re experiencing: &#8220;It looks like you&#8217;re tired. Would you need a break?&#8221;<\/pee>\n<h3>Accompanying the First Difficult Communications<\/h3>\n<pee>The first few times your teenager must communicate a need to a teacher or another adult, you can accompany them, then gradually let them do it alone.<\/pee>\n<h3>Resisting the Temptation to Do It for Them<\/h3>\n<pee>It&#8217;s faster to request the accommodation for your teenager yourself. But each time you do, you deprive them of an opportunity to develop their own skill.<\/pee>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"dynseo-section\">\n<h2 id=\"section-8\">Training to Develop These Skills<\/h2>\n<pee>Supporting your teenager in developing their ability to communicate their needs requires specific tools and strategies.<\/pee>\n<pee>The training <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dynseo.com\/en\/courses\/managing-the-emotions-of-an-autistic-teenager-en\/\" target=\"_blank\">Managing the Emotions of an Autistic Teenager<\/a> offered by DYNSEO guides you in supporting your teenager toward greater autonomy and self-advocacy.<\/pee>\n<pee>The training <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dynseo.com\/en\/courses\/autism-managing-difficult-situations-in-daily-life-en\/\" target=\"_blank\">Autism: Managing Difficult Situations in Daily Life<\/a> helps you understand situations where communicating needs is particularly difficult and develop strategies to overcome them.<\/pee>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"dynseo-section\">\n<h2 id=\"section-9\">Tools to Support Communication<\/h2>\n<pee>Adapted tools can facilitate communicating needs.<\/pee>\nMY DICTIONARY is the ideal tool for creating personalized communication supports: needs cards, visual scales, illustrated scripts.
