Without Context vs Context Blindness

Summary: It is key to speak with ‘connecting information’ to move a conversation forward with empathy, consideration, and purpose. It is easier said than done, no pun intended.

Speaking unprocessed thoughts with the assumption everyone knows what everything means without an explanation is something to note. Impulse control.

Context blindness is on a scale from simple conversation without consideration to a trait on the Autism spectrum.

Someone can be confused about a situation they are experiencing and act out of context or speak without understanding how others process the provided sentences.

Assessment can be helpful. Speaking without context can be linked to ADHD & ADD.
