I'm Tay. I was diagnosed with autism at age 31 after a successful academic career. I'm married with two kids and seem to manage pretty well from the outside looking in, but behind the scenes it's chronic anxiety, occasional depression, frequent therapy visits and stress-related sicknesses.
In this video I share how I got to this point, the incorrect diagnoses that kept me searching, the resources that finally started pointing me in the right direction, and tips for how you, too can pursue your own diagnosis.
I love making free content for you. Please subscribe to my channel so I can continue doing so!

***EDIT: Since posting this video, I have learned more about the horrific origins of the term "aspergers" and have since stopped using this term as well as "aspie" which is a derivation of the word, and renamed my channel. In future videos I will make sure to address this issue when referencing any materials that use this term. If you are interested in learning more about the origins of this term, please be warned that you will be reading very upsetting information regarding TRIGGER WARNING child violence. I apologize for any upset or harm I may have caused by using these terms without knowing their origins.
