Understanding Autism from a Lived Experience

A personal perspective on neurodiversity, shared through research-backed insights and real-world experiences. Join me on a journey to understand autism in adults.

I’m both logical and creative, opinionated yet shy, somewhat neurotic when it comes to cleanliness and structure, a social wannabe (haven’t mastered relationships yet), and love facts and research. 

From a personal perspective about autism in adults, I don’t quite have life all figured out.  However, I’m working on how to live my best possible life and am eager to share my autism mind and perspective. 

Some of my trending articles include: 

I hope My Autism Mind website, with more than 250 blogs across five categories, is the beginning of greater autism awareness, understanding, and connection. If you have questions or comments that I can answer, I’d like to hear from you. Contact me anytime at connor@myautismmind.com

I would also like to hear your ideas for topics of interest, so I can share important insights about autism spectrum disorder from my autistic perspective. 

Whether you have been diagnosed with ASD, or are a friend or loved one of someone with autism, maybe we can help one other to best navigate this journey and what it’s like to live life on the autism spectrum together.
