What makes the autistic mind tick? After 30 years of marriage, raising four kids, and managing the chaos of daily life, you'd think we’d have it all figured out by now—right? Well, it's not that simple, especially when you add the challenges of living with autism into the mix. In this video, I dive into what it's like navigating a relationship when you think differently, and how misunderstandings and frustrations are part of daily life. I'll share some insights into mindblindness, the constant mental gymnastics of understanding neurotypical behavior, and why communication can feel like a real-life sitcom.
Whether you're curious about autism or just enjoy hearing stories from real life, this episode of Dave’s Garage has something for you. If you’ve ever felt like people just don’t get you, or you're trying to better understand someone on the spectrum, check it out! Plus, if you like today’s discussion, there’s more in my book, available on Amazon amzn.to/3XFDfnR
