WE ARE an inclusive, members only
peer support community for
AUTISTIC adults all over the world.

This page is mainly for information purposes. It provides an overview of the aims of We Are Autistic and a brief summary of what services we offer.

Autism is a lifelong developmental disability which affects how people (like us) communicate and interact with the world.

Some of the difficulties we share include social communication & social interaction challenges, restrictive & repetitive behaviour, extreme anxiety, multiple coexisting mental & physical health conditions, meltdowns & shutdowns, burnout, sensory issues, and disordered eating.

These shared difficulties make autism a real community that exists in all cultures across the world.


Our aim is to provide an online community which gives a sense
of acceptance, support and familiarity to our members.
We Are Autistic want to bring autistic people together,
to help them feel included, and to give them confidence that they belong.
