Diagnosing the Autistic Culture
If you were diagnosed with Autism as an adult how would you respond to the autistic culture? With many, a diagnosis brings relief for the identification to give a name to the lifelong challenges that have been experienced. Dr. Angela Lauria discovered her autism as an adult and she drew on her own experience as well as her interest in autism to help others write, publish and promote their stories.
Autistic individuals possess hyperconnected brains where one of the symptoms is to intensely focus on one project and this can either be a good or destructive outcome for their lives. There are many famous figures in history that Dr. Lauria believes have displayed autistic traits and after understanding more of the symptoms and characteristics, we can make our own make our own analysis. In the podcast and this article we talk about characteristics of autism and dispel some of the misconceptions. It’s just a taste of the amount of information available and I urge the reader to peruse some of the sources and scholarly material available for more information.
