Neurotypicals - Is it rude to share a similar story after you share something that might be emotional or traumatic? (hexbear.net)

I keep hearing that this is frowned upon, but I cannot help it. After I share, I circle back and explain how and why I connected the two stories to try to recenter the other person. Is this annoying? How do you want ND people to respond in that case?

It really depends, honestly. Some people just want someone to listen to them. Some people want to be empathized with and sharing from your own experience can be part of that. There's not really a hard and fast rule to follow unfortunately.
