As I explain in the essay, for most of my life, I felt alone and out-of-place, like an alien from another planet. I was fortunate in young adulthood to discover the SCA, a place where I could pursue the special interests that led me to be able to form friendships.
The Autism Women’s Network is featuring posts by females on the autism spectrum as well as parents and caregivers, in order to give the public a better idea of what female autism is in the words of people who actually live it every day.
Author’s Note, October 2023: The link to my essay has been replaced by a link to it on my own blog, as the essay no longer exists on the organization’s website. The organization’s name has also been updated in intervening years: it is now known as the Autistic Women & Nonbinary Network.
