As far as I know my husband is neurotypical, but sometimes when he’s stressed he ceases being able to form coherent sentences, sometimes just getting out a couple syllables at a time. Something similar happens to me when I have extreme anxiety where I can get out the right words but not in the right order. I just received my ASD diagnosis last year, and hadn’t ever thought about this behavior in relation to autism. Is it normal for neurotypical people to go kind of nonverbal under stress?
