Why Autistic Friendships Are Important

Hi. How is everyone doing? I’m all right, just a little bored.

  Today, I’m going to talk about autistic friendships—that is, the importance of autistic people having other autistics to connect with. I met a wonderful woman who I’m very close to now who’s on the spectrum. She and I have a very similar sense of humor, so we really get each other’s jokes. We can sit there and just make jokes about almost anything. In her words, she is very much like my mentor through learning more about ASD.

In fact, here’s a video on my YouTube channel (also called BlautisticLife) with the two of us hanging out. Here it is, hopefully.

  I hope that worked, and I hope you guys enjoy watching it. Thanks for stopping by! See you later.
