Ask an Autistic Person: Recent Episodes
Michael Eliot
I'm Michael Eliot and I'm having people on to interview me, an autistic person, and talk about autism and how it influences different aspects of my life, to de-stigmatize and de-mystify some of the ideas around autism, and of course answer people's questions openly, honestly, and without judgement Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/michael-eliot/support
My guest this week is another Autistic Person, my friend Hal! We were friends in college and they more recently received their diagnosis, so we talk a bit about self-diagnosis, being autistic as an adult, and looking back on what set us apart as kids, our favorite autistic headcanons, and everything in between!

CW: Loss of a child
On this episode, I have a very special guest: my Mom! Any time I talk about my Autism, I have to talk about the impact my mom has had on my journey, so I'm very excited to talk to her about what I was like as a child, seeking my diagnosis, getting through school, and what has (or hasn't) changed about me since this all began.
