The Articulate Autistic

By Olivia Debortoli

Olivia is currently twenty-nine years old and is diagnosed with depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, borderline personality disorder, and autism. She comes from a family of five children, including herself, one older sister, an identical twin sister, and two younger brothers who are also identical twins, one of whom is autistic like herself. She enjoys photography, collecting rocks, gardening, and reading. She is also passionate about advocation for other autistic females who are late diagnosed, misdiagnosed, or undiagnosed due to social and medical stigma. She continues to strive to live her life as authentically and independently as possible, and someday she hopes to have an autism service dog to increase her independence and quality of life.
