Welcome to Autistically Sarah

Hi, I’m Sarah Boon and Autistically Sarah is the place where I started to process the late discovery of my autism and then ADHD in my mid-twenties through writing. Since then, the blog has blossomed into a place where I share my thoughts and ideas on topics relating to Autism, ADHD, AuDHD, and neurodivergence from a lived experience perspective.
