My name is Jon, and I was diagnosed with what is now called Level 1 Autism in 1998 and with Inattentive Type ADHD in 2023. Only one book was available on the market to guide my parents at the time. Now that approximately 1 in 36 people are believed to fall on the autism spectrum, there are many more books, resources, and opinions available online and offline. That’s a lot of potential for disagreements…

That’s why I’m proposing a new way to think about Autism: Neuro-Unity. By working together towards the same goals on a case-by-case basis, we can start resolving some of the larger differences and start thinking about what ideas we share in common with each other. That’s how we move forward as a community. Sure, there will still be disagreement, but if we only focus on the little things, not much progress will be made.

I started this site in 2011 as The Aspie Epilogue and rebranded in 2016 as The Aspie Dialogues. Now, it’s time to refocus on what’s important and work with each other to resolve some of the larger issues affecting the broader neurodivergent community.

Welcome to a new paradigm shift. The age of Neuro-Unity begins now.

NEUROTYPES UNITE!
