So pleased to have been able to present my research on #autisticwomen & #employment this week in Dublin at the 14th Autism Europe Congress, & a privilege to hear so many brilliant keynote & other presenters set out a better, more inclusive future for autistic people worldwide #AECongress2025 #dublin

One of my worst interview nightmare situations, misunderstanding the questions. Often mentioned by neurotypicals as a bit of a giggle, but a real deep seated fear, stigma and source of PTSD to the rest of us for whom this might be everyday life.

I've never owned, nor ever likely to want to own a Christmas jumper. However this would be apt for me and possibly many more neurodivergent people constantly being asked to 'cheer up'.
