This is a great article, Rachel and i am so glad you have shared it. I am autistic: my shame comes from just being who I am. I learnt to hide who i was by camouflaging, but getting my diagnosis was life-changing and I am being my more authentic self now. I so agree with you that it is the understanding of our vulnerabilites that holds the key to self acceptance and learning how to get help. In gratitude and kindness, A 🙏💚
