A Lesion is a Growth sometimes it’s your GP, not you, who thinks it might be cancer.

I'm having an MRI for the first time tomorrow. Most of my life I've felt kind of silly asking doctors 'is that normal?' or 'am I dying?' As a hypochondriac, I've recently been vindicated. I gotta say, it really sucks.

A Room of One's Own is maybe not the thing I may have taken Woolf's metaphor too literally...

I've moved 14 times in the last 14 years, but the most recent is the only one I've done knowing I'm autistic. I have no helpful tips. I've learned very little from the 13 previous moves and kicked the shit out of the furniture I love most.

Swindon Spiraling Am I Autistic or just very Ohio?

In my last post I wondered if I was actually Autistic or just a Midwesterner living in Britain. All masks are cultural but which ones are expat-me vs. autistic-me?

Smells you know but don’t name It all started with a phantom feeling in my teeth...

I'm writing an essay series about my late autism diagnosis. This month's post is about sensory sensitivities, and how I came to realize I actually have them.
