I am reading Dr Devon Price's book "Unmasking for Life" and this sentence stuck with me. This is a good overview of how autistic people who engage in deeper or more ingrained masking might struggle to live authentic lives or form any real relationships. It is therefore important to learn unmasking.

Anyway here's my dog with her big beautiful brown eyes that I love staring into while I avoid the eye contact of everyone else around me 🙃
