I'm excited to bring you a site specifically about women -
signs of autism in women,
their experiences, strengths, challenges, and solutions. 

I’ve diagnosed unrecognized autistic women for ten years and worked with them in therapy. These women are often successfully employed and married or with partners. They might have children and be involved in working with schools on their children’s behalf. Some might have struggled in jobs or relationships but can’t put their finger on why. What they have in common is their sense of being different, of never having fit in.

They often have diagnoses of anxiety disorders, depression, or ADHD, but they feel that there’s something missing, some part of themselves that’s unexplained.
