Don't assume that someone has low supports needs just because they:
Have a job
Dress well
Aren't institutionalized
Write & speak intelligently
How #ActuallyAutistic people look to you on the outside is irrelevant. Things are harder for us than it looks.
How are autistic professionals benefitting the autistic community? ๐งต 1/2

Thank you to Andrew Carpenter from Andrew Carpenter ๐ (NHS London) for the powerful talk on #hiddenautism and the impact it often has on a vast proportion of our patients and families
The next #AutisticElders chat is on Thursday 9th Nov, 11 - 12am. The topic is Autistic Burnout'. It's not a lecture or training, but an hour of relaxed, chat for autistic people aged about 50 yrs+. As usual, It's free, but register for the link at: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...
Andrew Carpenter ๐ (NHS London) thank you for a very informative training session on autism for practitioners. Lots of food for thought, particularly regarding mental health, substance use and homelessness
