"Autism can be much better described in this model and maybe Autism is all about interests," says Dinah Murray. Dinah joins us to talk about monotropism a theory she created with MIke Lesser and Wenn Lawson that was published in 2005 that states a monotropic mind is one that focuses its attention on a small number of interests at any time, tending to miss things outside of this attention tunnel. Autism Stories connects you with amazing people who are helping Autistic adults and teens become more successful.
