@MatthewToad42 @aisling_walsh @devxvda @wakehamAMR I was diagnosed 6 months ago at 57.
FIFTY SEVEN
I know, right?
I've learned lots from #neurokin & #ActuallyAutistic accounts & threads
I'm a writer, playwright podcaster, actor, etc now all I want to tell an audience is what that dx has meant to a broad hurtling to 60 who was labelled a #changeling as a child
My essay about being told is called #OpeningDoors & is on www.shellshock.ie
Every strand of my "personality" is an autistic trait โ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ช๐

Keep your eyes on this.
Like I mentioned earlier, God uses people He knows are not only capable of accomplishing His tasks, but who are willing.
Examples:
Trump: exposing D.C. Swamp
Elon: exposing Child abuse
Ron DeSantis: exposing Covid Vaccine malpractice
Kari Lake: rigged elections
And many moreโฆ

@HedgeNewby to finally get a diagnosis of #actuallyautistic at 57 is incredible.
And it makes "sense" of my entire life.
I was prescribed stimulants for #ADHD (Strattera) but side effects were a bridge too far. Now on amphetamines its all fitting together like a surreal jigsaw. I've learnt so much from the neurodivergent community. I've written an essay about an #artscentre and #autism called #OpeningDoors
It's on my blog on my website at www.shellshock.ie

I'm trawling through #googlephotos looking for the #archive that illustrates the #essay #OpeningDoors that I was #commissioned to write for the #relaunch of Irelands oldest Arts Centre in #Wexford
I was there in #1974
It's taking a fair while, even on #amphetamines
The essay begins with my birth up to the present day.
I'll #blog it when I finish said she lighting another cigarette
