After years of being misdiagnosed and misunderstood, I finally know that I’m autistic. Been masking incredibly well for 51 years!

My autism means that I feel and see and hear the world differently. In the words of Dr Luke Beardon, autism is not a tragedy, but living in a society that doesn't understand it can be. I hope that we can change that. https://t.co/leDsx6DfGE

Autism is not a tragedy but living in a world that doesn't understand it can be. In this post I talk about how I got to this point and why I didn't realise that I was autistic. https://t.co/Wo4nWQpuqh

My autiphany - the moment I realised and recognised my way of seeing and feeling the world was different. But equal. Equal but different. https://t.co/u0WRgdX0S3

How thoughtful of God to arrange matters so that, wherever you happen to be born, the local religion always turns out to be the true one.

@SolitudinarianA Agreed and understand. And if you do ask they look away and walk away cos was never the deal. Always realise too late.

@TheFrank_Mag @MsMelanieSykes Hey and so fab you are speaking about autism. Lots of us late diagnosed women are trying to challenge the myths and misconceptions. We would love to chat to you and see how much more we can do together. If poss x

@jk_rowling I posted a video about autistic difference in which I called neurotypicals muggles - no special powers. I’m blocked and banned and shunned for using a word from literature. How can you cope with this crazy stuff?

[tracy clements @autismtravel]

@coldshders @HonestAutistic Totally get that. I was shocked and upset by the suggestion but 2 years on my life is so much calmer by knowing who I am and why

[tracy clements @autismtravel]

@HonestAutistic @quetiapoop This is what we need to address. I write abs shout and dance and sing but not sure how to get it out there. X

[tracy clements @autismtravel]

@SaCha1689 @HonestAutistic Totally understand and agree. Me too! Chat anytime x

[tracy clements @autismtravel]

@HonestAutistic Bizarrely I developed a loud join in jump in persona which I now know was me trying to cope. 50 years of failing.

Talked to two young people tonight who feel hopeless because their autistic brains will never be understood or embraced. Not ok. Need to change this. Let’s talk about the difference and embrace us all.

@Ella_M_Whelan @SkyNews @baronessnewlove @TrevorPTweets So fab. You sound fab and are so confident. I’m scared to also say that you look amazing- I have an autistic brain. We just say what we see and here. At least, I do.
