Many autistic people will tell you: to be autistic is to be frequently misunderstood by everyone else. But why does this happen? Is it the autistic person's fault - or is it related to Double Empathy? Learn more about this concept and why everyone should learn more about it.

Are you an autistic person who struggles with being misunderstood? What are ways that you would like to see communication improve between autistic and non-autistic people? Be sure to share your experiences, questions, and thoughts in the comments! ⤵️

Whether you have an autistic friend, family member, or loved one, work with people on the autism spectrum, are autistic and struggle with communication, or are simply interested in learning more, this video has something for you. I'm here to provide the unique perspective of someone who is an autistic ADHDer and also an educator. We want to help people better understand autism and ADHD and support one another as well with the goal of improving communication and life in general for all of us in a neurodiverse world.
