Dear Neurotypicals: What We Wish You Knew (But Were Too Tired to Explain)


Listen Later

The podcast script for "Femme on the Spectrum" is hosted by Elizabeth, an autistic adult who was diagnosed later in life. She explores different aspects of autism while sharing personal experiences, aiming to raise awareness and understanding about day-to-day challenges faced by autistic adults. She delves into the concept of "masking," the act of conforming to neurotypical behaviors to fit in socially, and its emotional and physical costs, including burnout and mental health issues. Elizabeth further discusses the liberation that comes with a diagnosis, providing clarity and the means to communicate one's needs effectively. She ends with a call for understanding and acceptance rather than attempts to 'fix' individuals on the spectrum, urging listeners to connect with authenticity and compassion.
