My autism journey as an adult
Tuesday 17th FebFor most of my life, I thought I was just bad at being a person.
I worked so hard to fit in studying conversations, rehearsing responses, hiding how overwhelmed I felt. I didn’t know I was masking. I just thought everyone else had received a rulebook I somehow missed.
When I found out I was autistic as an adult, it didn’t feel like a shock. It felt like clarity.
Suddenly, my exhaustion made sense. The sensory overload. The deep, all-consuming interests. The way I could care so much and still struggle to show it “correctly.” I wasn’t broken or dramatic or too sensitive.
I was autistic.
There was relief in that realization but also grief. Grief for the younger me who blamed herself for struggling. Grief for the years spent trying to fix something that was never wrong.
My diagnosis didn’t change who I am. It changed how I see myself. And instead of asking, “Why can’t I be normal?” I now ask, “What do I need to thrive?”
That question has made all the difference.
