Peeling Back The Mask

I broke the interview into 3 parts because we do cover a lot of topics during our talk, so it will be a little easier to digest in small 30 minute parts rather than a whole hour and a half.

In the third part of the interview we cover;

- Parents grieving after their child's diagnosis.

- How and why Osiris was diagnosed.

This episode, I interview and talk with my friend and fellow Autie, Osiris Jasso.

We cover topics from family support, sensitivities, labeling Autistics to Autism in Society and much more!

A big Thank-you! to Osiris for his time, for sharing and for his insights! I had a great time!

On this episode of Peeling Back The Mask, I talk about the effects of being in quarantine, isolation and depression.

I talk about how it affects someone on the Autism Spectrum, as well as people who suffer depression in general and some tips to help those you know who may be dealing with depression due to the isolation.

As well, I talk a bit about the labeling of Autistics as "high functioning" as opposed to others on the spectrum and how it needs to stop to unite us all under the one simple term of Autistic. 

I also talk a little about my support group on Facebook, who have been wonderful in helping me decipher things and given me a place where I can get support and feel safe in sharing.

Peeling Back The Mask is a podcast discussing Autism Spectrum Disorder in all of it's aspects in a raw, unscripted manner. We will talk about topics that are not generally discussed on Youtube videos, websites or other podcasts.

In this first podcast, I discuss some of the aspects of ASD, common traits and give some definition. And yes, it was scripted this time.

Whether you want to know more on the subject, have someone in your life with ASD or have ASD yourself, together, we can learn more about it, the good and bad, and gain insights into it and how it affects our lives.
