So proud of this!
Seeing Double, Understanding Autism
I collaborated on this article with the wonderful Kyle, who’s writing can be found on https://discussingthedis.wordpress.com/. We both describe waking up at university and a simple, five minute journey to the student services building from the perspective of our disabilities. I often wish my autism was more visible, or at least that the issues surrounding it were more universally recognised, whereas Kyle feels his disability is constantly on display, which makes it harder to interact socially. What I really wanted to highlight is that there is no such thing is a disability hierarchy. No one disability is better or worse than another, each comes with it’s own unique set of challenges. It’s just human nature to think the grass is greener on the other side
Anyway… without further ado, let me and Kyle take you through our day.
