"hidden in plain sight"

In this episode of au-flemme, we talk about autism in women, late diagnoses, masking, and the ways women’s mental health has historically been misunderstood. From autism and ADHD to anxiety and depression, this episode explores how many women grow up feeling “different” without ever understanding why. We also dive into how research has long focused on male experiences, causing many autistic women to go unnoticed, misdiagnosed, or dismissed for years. A conversation about mental health, gender stereotypes, identity, and what happens when society fails to recognize certain experiences. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
