Autism In Women with Mom On The Spectrum

[@wolfdreams2000]

2nd show of yours I've watched today! But I've been watching Taylor for a bit over a year since she literally showed up in my feed one day-love her. Having never considered that I might be autistic, the "nudge" hit me. Finally, at 62 years old, I was diagnosed with adhd this past summer, and I am literally in the beginning diagnostic process for ASD. Thanks for your show, and having Taylor on!😊

Thank you so much for validating my need for continuous, natural speech content. I can't even understand how people consume tiktok

Same here; High achieving female with anxiety, depression and finally total burnout. I’ve constantly Been looking for answers to my struggles and what felt like a very fragmented life! But only when I researched and realized all those parts of me I’ve been battling so hard to *overcome* all my life, were autistic traits and a PART of me, my entire life made sense and I felt this crazy relief. I just knew deep deep down that this was me. And for the first time in my life, all those different parts of me FIT together as a whole. Like my ADHD is an explanation of how I do things - but autism is who I *am*… Waiting for an official assessment at the moment, and anxious that the dr. will understand me! :/

Having women with autism speaking about their personal experience is SO important when the medical definition and research is based on the male version of autism! So great to listen to this podcast 🙏🏻
