About

I started this blog as a way to get in touch with myself, explore what it means to be neurodivergent in a neurotypical world, and to help me on my journey of unmasking my own Autism. I only truly began learning about Autism and leaning into what it is since November 2023 and have since come to realize on multiple occasions and in multiple contexts that I am, indeed, #ActuallyAutistic.

Since then, life has been a whirlwind of constantly doubting myself, gaslighting myself, and even trying to convince myself that I can shove my new round peg into my previously square hole of a life.

Feel free to join me on this journey as I explore who I am, what my strengths are, and how I can treat myself with more kindness and love. I’m not sure where we’ll end up, but I’m hoping it will be somewhere beautiful.
