Letting go of self hatred: the impact of an autism diagnosis","description":"Hannah Brockway is a violinist in her thirties from Australia; music has been her lifelong special interest. Since discovering her autism Hannah has realised that many of the people she\u2019s gravitated towards in her life are neurodivergent too. In this episode Hannah shares some of her experiences around chronic fatigue, anorexia and panic disorder, needing to take two assessments before finally getting her autism diagnosis, and some of the difficulties she\u2019s faced as an autistic professional musician.  Squarepeg is a podcast in which I talk to other late identified autistic women and nonbinary people about their lives, their autism journeys, and what they\u2019ve learned along the way. I\u2019m Amy Richards, and I was diagnosed autistic in 2016, when I was 37. I\u2019ve been sharing my conversations with other autistic adults since 2020. I hope you'll find these conversations inspiring and thought provoking, and that they\u2019ll help you feel more connected to a worldwide community of people with similar experiences.   EPISODE LINKS: Hannah's Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/hannah_unmasked\/ Her book: https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details?id=VeAHEQAAQBAJ&fbclid https:\/\/www.booktopia.com.au\/a-cautionary-tale-hannah-brockway\/book\/9780648399919.html   If you'd like to connect with me, get in touch or follow Squarepeg, you can find me on: Website: https:\/\/squarepeg.community\/  Patreon: https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/squarepegpodcast  Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/squarepeg.community\/ Facebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/squarepegautism\/  ","author_name":"The Squarepeg Podcast","author_url":"https:\/\/squarepeg.community\/podcast\/","html":"
