Cam, it takes a deep level of courage to put words like these into the world. There’s a raw honesty in your writing that makes it impossible not to connect with. The vulnerability here isn’t just in what you’ve shared, but in the way you’ve shared it. That kind of openness is rare, and it speaks to both your strength and your trust in others who read the article. Thank you for allowing us into this space with you.
Thanks Cam, I can relate this article to my partner as she always sits in the background of a conversation and then when she does try to participate in a group situation she gets talked over, unintentionally being shut down. Thank you.

Thanks, Ryan, I'm not sure it's trust so much as a lack of fear.

I sincerely hope she finds it useful. I'd love to read/hear her perspectives and experiences also
This really does explain exactly what it is like to be autistic in words I would never have known to use to express how it feels.
