@KatyElphinstone While growing up, much of that trauma I ascribed as being "hearing impaired" . I did not have the vocabulary back then, to articulate that which I know now.

Thank you for your insightful post.

@TresFluke

Thank you! And that is interesting. In the podcast that I took my text from here, I mentioned the intersection between autism and sensory disabilities. I've followed you.
