• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I had never neard of her. It is great that some people who are very successful despite having ASD can go out and raise awarenes about autism.
Yes. It's helpful too when they can explain how their mind works because it helps others to be more helpful to aspies that are in their own lives.

Unfortunately that depends on thef speaker and audience. She could do it because of her status as one of the most successful people with ASD whose job is lecturing all day. I was banned from a football message board for explaining it and consequently being treated like crap by many active members, leading to very bad discussions that derealied threads and broke forum rules. I have to leave it to other people to spread the word that autistic spectrum disorders make people like me unable to change, so they have to change.
