Feelin Weird

116. Autism + Neurodiversity


Listen Later

My guest and I are autistic.  We talk about being HIGHLY sensitive, masking, autistic burnout, neurodivergent shame, and getting a diagnosis.

We also discuss:
the shortcomings of the western medical system;
turning off ALL emotions as a response to having big feelings;
special interests;
the gap between logic and heart;
queer and spiritual;
O.C.D., G.A.D., & major depression;
BPD and not identifying with past diagnoses;
understanding and respecting your own needs and boundaries;
fear of taking up too much space;
clear, direct communication;

PLUS, Gaby, Dagenson and I chat about feeling scared and believing in our selves AND I rant about the humyn species and how confusing they/we are!

Recorded June 15 & Oct 17/18, 2021.
