A Peek Inside: The Beginning


Hello. My name is Marisa Gaffney. I am 16 years old, I have red hair, I have green eyes, and I have autism. I have come to understand that I have a different point of view on things than most people and that is because the autism makes me experience and think about things in my own way. 

There are certain things about autism that make me feel proud of having it, but there are other things about me that leave stressed. For example, I freak out when something isn’t exactly perfect and it takes a while for me to follow instructions. I am good at instructions though once I do figure it out. More on those things later.

My mom thought making this blog could be good for me because I get to express myself and share who I am with people who are like me. I think it can be good idea and I’d feel happy if what I say might help someone. My autism makes things a little harder, but I try to get better how I can and with understanding things have gotten better.
