I appreciate being a part of this forum and hope to learn a lot. I will reveal that I am a psychologist by trade and work with adult individuals who are on the spectrum and their families. More importantly, I also have very dear people in my life who are the spectrum. In both cases, my aim is to understand these people better so I can help and/or love them better, although I experience each of them as totally unique persons. As my level of understanding is incomplete and always will be, I am fearful that I will say something that offends someone else. My intention is always one of empathy and compassion, even though I might stumble along the way inadvertently. If that happens, please forgive me. But also, please tell me about it so I can make corrections and reparations. Thank you!
