What is masking? (Short Video)

Hello, thanks for the video. Kieran Rose and Jodie Smitten are great autistic advocates. I have not seen much of Amy Pearson’s work apart from the paper on masking she co-authored with Kieran.

It’s a brilliant paper, it collates all the autistic theories on autistic experience to understand the context of masking.

Have you read the paper?

Thanks again, I will watch the video later.

Yes, that paper is excellent and I try to follow these speakers for more insights.  I noticed a snippet on burnout from Jodie too:

Plus Amy was one of the speakers at this year's NEAS conference, speaking on stigma and victimisation:

Hi

I really resonated with the post conversation discussions I have with myself. 

Was listening with earphones to the video when a colleague came into the office, they said hi and I said it back, did I pull my earphones out and have a chat? Did I heck! Did I think about all the stuff I could have said to them after they left? 100% correct

This is one of the reasons I struggle with friendships because I don't really care about the small talk that often pre ludes a friendship (I'm totally guessing that's how they work) , I can talk your face off on a subject I like but sometimes I have to rehearse things before I say them. 

Hope this makes sense

Great video
