THE INVISIBLE RULEBOOK: 10 social rules ADHD and autistic people were never taught

THE INVISIBLE RULEBOOK: 10 social rules ADHD and autistic people were never taught

Why does small talk feel so awkward? Why is eye contact so confusing? And why does honesty sometimes get labelled as “rude”? In this episode, Rox and Rich unpack the invisible social rulebook that everyone seems to follow… except no one ever actually explains it.

Together they break down 10 unwritten social rules – from small talk and eye contact to reading between the lines, texting expectations, and the pressure to “be polite.” They explore why these rules often feel confusing, exhausting, or even completely illogical for ADHD and autistic people.

If you’ve ever felt like socialising is a game everyone else somehow learned the rules to, this episode will make you feel seen. Rox and Rich challenge the idea that neurodivergent people are “bad at social skills” and ask a bigger question: what if the rules themselves are the problem?
