Autistic and non-autistic people may express emotions in ways that are different but equally meaningful - almost like speaking different languages. So, what has sometimes been interpreted as difficulties for autistic people may reflect a two-way misunderstanding...🧵17

For #AutismAcceptanceWeek we made this video to discuss our recent paper on acceptance, camouflaging & mental health. Our findings underscore the crucial need to combat stigma & to reduce the pressure on autistic individuals to conceal their identity youtu.be/bc1Lk06wJTA 🧵1/6

Most striking for me was that 75.5% of the autistic respondents did not feel accepted or only sometimes felt accepted as an autistic person - we still have a long way to go to… #AutismAcceptance #AutismAcceptanceWeek
