Great, encouraging story! I am not on the spectrum, but in my own recovery from PTSD, I discovered that I needed to take matters more into my own hands. I was expecting therapists and healers to fix me—basically I was giving away power that only I can exercise —my power being the ability to receive feedback within myself and to know what I really need, what’s helpful and what isn’t. This does include therapy but taking responsibility in this way has been empowering.

I hope you find great success—it sounds like you’re well on your way.
