Hi, I am Dee

Good morning everyone. New to the site.

Please can anyone tell me how you feel we should identify ourselves to NT people? I am confused; some communities say we are autistic with neuro-diverse characteristics and tendencies and others say we have a condition called autism.

My employer says people with autism is the correct term but I have grown, knowing that I am autistic.

    Hello, Dee. Welcome. There is no right or wrong answer, no correct or incorrect description. It's a personal choice. All that matters is how YOU want to describe YOURSELF. No one can dictate what words you use to express your uniqueness.
