Self-Care is Self-Preservation

When does being autistic mean we’re disabled? Autism becomes a disability when we cannot perform routine daily functions, either for fun or work. Daniel Sansing and Ben Sorensen discuss the autistic need for self-care. Autistic masking and struggles to “fit” into groups leave us exhausted physically and mentally. Learn some tips for self-care and hear some honest reflections on autistic burnout.

“The Autistic Three” roundtable format worked well and I hope we try this format in the future. It would be great to have alternating participants  for small panels.

Transcription (still) in Progress

I am still working on completing some interview transcripts. I am sorry that they were not completed in a timely manner. I use transcription services, but the results are far from ideal unless you pay additional fees.
