Have you ever wondered what it’s like to live as an undiagnosed Autistic person living in a neurotypical world? Maybe you’re a parent to a nonspeaking child or a child who’s too young to be able to properly express their experience. Learning from actually Autistic adults is one of the most valuable things you can do for your Autistic child and other Autistic individuals in the world, and today, we’re lucky enough to be hearing from one of my favorite Autistic adult creators, Paige Layle.

She just released her memoir, “But Everyone Feels this Way: How an Autism Diagnosis Saved My Life” and we’re diving into it today.

You can buy her book at Target, amazon, or Hachette’s website and I highly recommend it!

Trigger warning: Paige discusses her experience with thoughts of suicide. Please listen at your own discretion, and do not listen with your children around.

Listen to this story to learn more about:

  • Paige’s internal experience with sensory overload in the classroom
  • Her experience of an adult autistic meltdown vs. child autistic meltdown
  • How she made the difficult decision to leave university
  • How she would have benefitted from school accommodations if she were offered them
