I have a whole podcast in my head I want to do called “Darrin Stevens is an A****le” that breaks down how little he mattered and what a jerk he was. Worse as the second Darrin where the writers seem turn him up to 11. With Darrin 1 there was a sense of his understanding

Autistic masking = changing or hiding parts of yourself to fit in.
It can protect you — but it can also lead to burnout and identity loss. What it is, why it happens, and how to recognize it, with expert insights and personal experience.

I used to think I had to answer immediately.

Thank you! Yes, I’m definitely here. A little slower to post though. I recently started a Substack (inspired by Dr Neff) so I’m actively there a lot. I’m happy this is helpful. Let me know if you have anything specific I should make a video on

🚀 Corporate workplaces often push rigid structures that don’t work for ADHD minds. Instead of asking, “Why isn’t this employee trying harder?”, ask:
✔️ What sparks their interest?
✔️ How can we connect tasks to strengths?
✔️ What small accommodations would help?
