Show Notes

Here are 5 super obvious signs that a female is on the autism spectrum. Autism is common in both male and female however many of the original testing criteria was catered to males. I hope this list helps. 1. Lack Of Eye Contact Lots of autistic people will have issues and difficulty making and maintaining eye contact. 2. Issues Keeping Friends Autistic females will want to make friends with people but will feel out of the loop and end up having issues keeping friends due to lack of emotional understanding. 3. Collecting Autistic people especially females on the spectrum will enjoy collecting fandom like, a book collection or movies etc. 4. Obsessive Interest Obsessive interest in a specific topic is a tell tail Sign of autism, this will be the one thing they love to talk about all the time to. 5. Masking To Overload Masking is more prevalent in autistic females, and will be seen when they are spending all day in school and or work then come home and have a complete meltdown because they have been masking all day to ‘fit in’. I’d love to hear anything you would like to add so please, let’s start a discussion.
