Some autistic people find making phone calls extremely stressful and unpleasant and will avoid them at all costs.

Please don’t try and force your communication preferences on others.

@autism101 I just called someone I really needed Right Now (and I know they usually handle email instantly, only I didn't know if they were near their email) and I'm glad I managed but still shaking a bit.
