Dr. Elaine Aron and her husband coined the term highly sensitive person (HSP) in the 1990s. Since then, her books and online content on the subject have become widely read and discussed. I'm not the first to see an overlap between the HSP trait and autism, and I won't be the last!
Topics discussed also include:

  • An overview of the HSP checklist
  • Getting into some details about Dr. Aron's now-deleted FAQ website content on HSP and autism
  • Specific ways that Dr. Aron's work can be helpful to autistic people
  • The HSP trait and how much it aligns with the so-called "female autism phenotype"
