Find out how autistic women go unnoticed and what some of our “revelations” are. We will explore appearance, intellect, emotions, learning styles and relationships. We'll define camouflage and masking and how it makes it harder for us to identify where we're stuck.

***EDIT: Since posting this video, I have learned more about the horrible origins of the term /"aspergers/" and have since stopped using that term as well as /"aspie/" which is a derivation of the word, and I renamed my channel. In future videos, I'll be sure to address this issue when referring to documents using this term. If you want to know more about the origins of this term, know that you will read some very upsetting information regarding violence against children. I apologize for any inconvenience or harm I may have caused by using these terms without knowing their origins.

My name is Tay. I am a mother of 2 and received an unexpected autism diagnosis at the age of 31 and it has been a monumental journey!
The path to an adult autism diagnosis can be difficult, but I'm here to help by providing the resources and information I've learned along the way. Getting a diagnosis can help you develop more self-compassion, reduce stress and anxiety, and discover effective coping strategies.
Being autistic is nothing to be ashamed of. It is a very complex and unique way of seeing the world that has many strengths and advantages.
