This episode of Divergent Voices explores the impact of discovering you’re autistic, whether via clinical assessment or self-diagnosis.
Autistic advocate and YouTube content creator Purple Ella is joined once again by neurodevelopmental specialist Hannah Hayward and autistic blogger and advocate Emily-Katy, and together they explore the ‘what next’ – from advocating for yourself during an assessment, to recognising when you are masking, and making adjustments that benefit your life going forward.
Divergent Voices is created by Clinical Partners for the NHS. The series combines personal stories, unique insights, and life hacks from autistic people, with practical strategies from leading clinicians.
