What traits of autism are rarely discussed? And how do these impact life for autistics? Are there benefits to autism? Today I'm here to tell you 10 autistic clues that no one seems to talk about many of which are pretty awesome, if you ask me. What are other clues of autism that never seem to be highlighted? Be sure to share in the comments! ⤵

Whether you are autistic, have an autistic friend, family member, or loved one, work with people on the autism spectrum, or are simply interested in learning more, this video has something for you. I'm here to provide the unique perspective of someone who is an autistic ADHDer and also an educator. We want to help people better understand autism and ADHD and support one another as well with the goal of improving communication and life in general for all of us in a neurodiverse world.
