What Being Drunk Feels Like As An Autistic Person

Hi there, I'm Elena! I was diagnosed with autism at 25, and ever since, I've been piecing my life together. My videos are a space for late-diagnosed individuals navigating their own journeys 🌈 This is a vulnerable conversation, but one I think a lot of late-diagnosed autistic adults can relate to. In this video, I talk about what alcohol can feel like internally as an autistic person, the relief of masking less, and why that can become emotionally complicated. I am not trying to glorifying substances, I am just trying to reduce some shame around the conversation ♡ If you’re navigating a late autism diagnosis and don’t know where to start, I’ve built something to support you ❤️‍🩹 A coaching app designed to help you understand yourself and move forward You can check it out here: studio.com/elena-1/rebuildyourlife Thank you so much for supporting my channel with your views, likes, comments, and subscription!
