You know, this video made me cry. This is my life . . . even the parts about people thinking I am faking, or being autistic isn't real, or being deemed crafty and intentionally hurtful. Wow.

Many thanks for posting this. After following your link I watched all three parts of Rudy Simone's talk. I think she's really wonderful. I find it very reassuring and comforting to hear her talk about so many things I can relate to. I was diagnosed with AS as an adult and it's an incredible relief to find out I'm not alone with all these experiences.

This was really interesting and I could definitely relate to a lot of what she said. I'm going to watch all three parts too.
