“It [Diverging] resonates so much that my therapist, my aunt, and even my grandmother thought I had written it!”
I want to thank you for the Diverging series about a woman with high-functioning autism. It’s the first time I’ve seen my own thoughts and experiences so accurately reflected in writing. I was diagnosed this past February, and since then I’ve been searching for something that captures what it’s really like. This series does exactly that.
It resonates so much that my therapist, my aunt, and even my grandmother thought I had written it!
I especially relate to the emotional side and the challenges around communication. While Meira experiences hypersensitivity, I actually have hyposensitivity — under-sensitivity to sensory input — but I still connect deeply with her inner world.
Each week I look forward to the next part of the story, and I’m especially eager to see what kind of help Meira receives. It gives me hope and helps me feel less alone in my own journey.
