Embracing stoicism can help break the autism curse. I'm in my mid 30's and I'm just figuring this out.

    Stoicism is honestly the second step to dealing with your feelings. With autism, recognizing having feelings is the hard part. You're hypersensitive to both external and internal stimuli, but they both feel the same. Separating them and recognizing that half of your experience is actually under your control, that's the big win.
