As a young adult, at age 19, I received my dyslexia diagnosis and my assessment team also believed I might be a high functioning austic person as well. I knew very little about autism back then… in my mind I just thought I wouldn’t be coping as well if I had something like that going on (spoiler, I wasn’t actually coping that well, not really, not at all). 

So am I actually autistic? Could that be possible? I talk you through many observations I have made about myself retrospectively and all the weird and wonderful things I have done over the years so far. 

Why do I bare all in this way... in case it helps someone else mainly. Like with all the episodes in this podcast so far my aim is to address things that can be uncomfortable, and that sometimes are for me, in the hope that it will provide comfort to someone else.
