Introduction

My Friend Autism is a podcast breaking down barriers, stigma and misconceptions around autism. Orion Kelly shares his tips on how to help the autistic person in your life. Autistic people need more regular periods of alone time than non-autistic people. Don't patronise or get annoyed with someone who has a neurological developmental disability. And don't take an autistic person's need to escape from the world personally - it's not about you.
