Hi everyone. I’m a podcast listener as find them informative and in some ways, soothing. I’m looking for recommendations of where I can hear the experiences of the late diagnosed. I was diagnosed this year aged 50. I have noticed that when listening to people discussing their experiences in the media, when they begin talking about being late diagnosed they frame it in the context of being in their late twenties. I would be interested in hearing older peoples life experiences. Thanks in advance.
Hi you can read my profile to understand what it was like in the '50. '60s. also I would recommend the book "Neurotribes"
Yes, I read Neurotribes too. It's packed with lots of background information about the history of autism and different and changing views of it. I found there were so many places where I felt the author had interviewed me! I'm not sure a neuro-typical person ever experiences that moment when you meet yourself!
Just started reading this one - its a big book.
