“I talk about neurodivergence and mental health, while sharing stories about learning to navigate the world as an autistic adult.”

My name is Stacey. I am autistic and I talk and write about neurodivergence and mental health.

I was sectioned in a CAMHS unit as a teenager after years of high anxiety, issues around food and low mood. Mis-diagnosed with a personality disorder as a teenager, I was then diagnosed with autism in my early twenties. I began blogging about my experiences shortly after my autism diagnosis.

I am passionate about young autistic people understanding why they are different and knowing that they aren’t alone, and about raising awareness and understanding of autism and mental health.
