Undiagnosed Adults Are Struggling Silently, Help Me Reach Them

Hi, I’m Myk Bilokonsky and you can hire me to help your organization better hire, retain and treat Autistic employees. I can also provide an audit of your organization’s practices from a neurodivergent perspective, identifying non-obvious issues and ways that you can do a better job of supporting a diverse range of neurotypes.

I currently run the Public Neurodiversity Support Center, and previously set up the subreddit /r/AutismTranslated. My goal in life — my calling — is to reach as many undiagnosed Autistic Adults as I can. Studies show that Autistic people who go their whole lives undiagnosed eventually decide that they’re simply bad people. Our life expectancy is 56 — due to childhood accidents, heart attacks from stress and suicide.

Most Autistic people on earth today are undiagnosed adults. Let’s work together to reach them!

The bulk of my work can be found here. I have essays aimed at various demographics, both ND people and allies:

/r/AutismTranslated

When I first started out on this path I created a subreddit for people who were exploring. Today it’s alive with over 20k members and it’s super supportive.

r/AutismTranslated If you think you might be autistic - or even if you're on The Quest, to figure out why life seems so much stranger and harder for you than it does for other people - then we made this space for you. It's one thing to read DSM diagnostic criteria or an Autism Parent's lamentations, and another to really hear us as we describe what it feels like to _be_ autistic. Welcome, and please feel free to ask questions! :) reddit.com⁠
