Be Your Own Mental Health Super Hero/Autistically Speaking Ali Hayman

Autistically authentic and late diagnosed/identified autistic woman and why late diagnosis is super common but can give forgiveness to your younger self. I'm autistic and even though it took me years to find out I'm glad I know why I felt so different than my peers and siblings for a long time.

In this episode I talk about bullying and how it Impacts mental health in kids and teens and can have long term effects into adulthood on bullying survivors like myself. I hope this episode resonates with you if you too are a bullying survivor. P.S. I planned on editing with Audacity and making my voice louder but due to wifi issues was unable to do so on my laptop. Also changed the background music so we'll see if it's less distracting now.

This episode I talk about Verbal and emotional abuse and how it can definitely affect your mental health and cause many issues mental health related. Can you relate?

Childhood trauma something I just realized was a part of my life this year after taking a childhood trauma course and learning about the ACE study and test and got my ACE score. Have you been bullied or verbally and emotionally abused? If so if it happened starting in childhood before your early teen years that's childhood trauma I know because I've been there. I'm currently working on healing from mine and someday forgiving my "dad" who caused the verbal and emotional abuse and forgiving the other people who have caused me trauma and pain. I hope this resonates with you!
