ABOUT

My name is Louise. I was diagnosed with autism in my late forties.

This blog is my journey from late diagnosis, how I navigate the ups and downs of life, and the strategies I use to cope.

I also write about my lifestyle, my life experiences, and raising awareness about neurodiversity.

Autism is a spectrum, and it can look different in each person. This is one way autism can present.

Self-Compassion

I am always beating myself up and worrying if I have done enough. Here is a quote that helps me have more self-compassion.

“Be water, my friend.”

Bruce Lee

This quote reminds me that, like water, I can approach challenges by adapting, staying calm and being in control without overreacting.

Water continues to flow and adjust regardless of the situation.
