What was your light bulb moment when you realized you might be Autistic? Did you stumble across the connections or did someone help illuminate the idea? We high-level review our understanding and awarenesses of autism spectrum disorder over time and discuss the perspective changes and research advancements that continue to help adults find their own missing life puzzle piece. Adults receiving a diagnosis as an adult face challenges that often receive little to no support and remain largely unrecognized even today. Statistically adults with autism report feeling traumatized before and during the process of discovering their diagnosis. We're raising awareness for the hidden influences of low self-esteem resulting from not having these life answers sooner. With greater awareness comes more evolved and heartfelt solutions. Join us.
