Tips on unmasking for late diagnosed autistics

Spritz

I find it hard to unmask even with people I trust. I dont mask knowingly with them, it's more of an autopilot thing. 

If anyone has any tips on how to break out of this autopilot mode, that would be great, thank you.

  • Hi Spritz, 

    I can relate to this. I was diagnosed last year and have struggled with the same thing. As you say it’s like being on autopilot and after so many years of masking it’s a hard cycle to break. 

    I’d be interested to hear and tips others may have too.
