Beyond Chronic Burnout: The Talk Show for Women & Their Helping Professionals

080 - Relationships & Dating as an Autistic Adult with Thomas Henley of Aspergers Growth


Listen Later

Have you been called narcissistic by someone in your life before?  This is something that can happen to an autistic person due to our unique communication styles and differences like alexithymia, dyslexia or auditory processing delays.  We aren’t narcissists, we feel deeply but that isn’t always how we are understood by others and this can impact our relationships or attempts at relationships quite frequently.

Join Thomas Henley from @AspergersGrowth and me today for a discussion on relationships and dating as an autistic.  There are things you may not have thought of before that influence your relationships and your dating life now and in the past, trauma is part of the discussion as well.

Come back and share your takeaway from this episode please.

---How did being called a narcissist by someone in your life make you feel and influence who you thought you were before you learned you are autistic not a narcissist?

--Do you notice or go back and fix or work on things in your life if something doesn't go horribly wrong first?
