Tell Them Apart - Book Series 2 of 8. Welcome to "Is It Autism or Trauma?" You've maybe spent years in therapy and still feel like something never got named. This opening episode lays out the question at the heart of the whole series: how do you tell the difference between who you are and what you survived - when autism and trauma can look so alike from the outside? We explain why almost nothing has been written about this overlap, who this book is really for, and what it can and can't do for you. Consider this your orientation before the deep dive begins.

Tell Them Apart - Book Series 2 of 8. Two people can look like they're struggling with the exact same things - and be living two completely different stories. In this episode we lay out the foundational difference between an autistic nervous system (something you're born with) and a trauma-shaped one (something that happened to you). We look at how each affects the senses, social connection, and emotion, and we follow two contrasting cases whose surface struggles look alike but whose origins don't. The takeaway: the answer usually lives in the inner experience, not the outward behavior. Buy the complete book "Is It Autism or Trauma?" from the link in the description: https://amzn.to/3S46GBg
