I reached my career nadir during perimenopause, just before my #autism #diagnosis aged 58.
Restarting my research career seemed impossible but after posting a thread on my experience of #AutisticMenopause I met the ‘Bridging the Silos’ research team I spent the next few years working with.

How do women with disability and LGBTQIA+ people experience menopause?
More than 85% of people with distressing menopause symptoms struggle to get appropriate care. These barriers can be compounded for LGBTQIA+ people and those living with disability.

For the International Creative Research Methods Conference 2025 I wrote and illustrated an autoethnographic prose poem called ‘Going With the Flow’ that includes original music by David de la Haye, with underwater sounds.

It's been 4 yrs this autumn since my world fell apart due to the #AutisticMenopause.
I lost all interest in everything that had brought me so much joy, fibrearts - my passion for over 20 yrs.
I put down my needles, left my wheel idle & the shuttle still hanging from my loom.

The first #AutisticMenopause study paper explores themes identified in focus groups and interviews with #Autistic people in Canada / UK.
It’s called a Perfect Storm because this sums up what can happen when #perimenopause and midlife pressures collide. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
