About this site
ASDKings is a passion project. A resource hub for the disempowered autistic men and women who wish to discover insight and become more. It’s also place to hear your experience echoed, so you know you are seen, heard, and not alone.
I write my raw stories, secret thoughts, unique perspectives and lessons learned the hard way in Articles.
Practical Knowledge I’ve collected, tested, and validated as repeatably functional in the fields of Career, Social Mastery, Dating, and Mental Strength are collected in Resources & Guides.
Anything found to be non-factual or non-functioning is removed immediately.
About Me
I am a late-diagnosed Autistic man with ADHD. Before I knew the truth, I assumed I was “weird”. A decade ago, I set myself on the mission of becoming whole by mastering human interaction, charisma, and persuasion through extensive exposure therapy and testing socio-psychological concepts in the real world, both socially and professionally.
This is advanced autistic masking, not sociopathy.
A lot of information I studied was proven by trial to be nonsense, or only applicable to neurotypicals. But I held onto what actually works.
Almost a decade into my journey of trial and error, I achieved success in all areas, particularly in my sales career, but discovered something more valuable: I was unhappy.
The quest for “perfection” led me to mask so hard I was no longer able to tell who the real me was. I suffered a breakdown and severe burnout, which led me to embrace a path towards completion by accepting the truth I had been suppressing all these years: that I am in fact Autistic and it’s time to be myself.
At first it felt like failure or admitting defeat, but I educated myself on Autism and realised it had many unfair neurological advantages that could be used to compete in the world in ways unimaginable before.
Armed with this new knowledge, a mask that still rips through NT noise, and the correct perspective of working with my wiring instead of against it, I am finally at a place where I am truly playing to win.
My goal with ASDKings is to help you do that too without the suffering it cost me to achieve it. To help you Reject Limitation and Become More.
