Autistic Adults Get Bullied (What You Should Do)

Aspergers and Autism Podcast [The Aspie World]

About

Bullying doesn’t just happen in school — many autistic adults face bullying, discrimination, and exclusion at work, in relationships, and in social situations. If you’ve ever felt targeted, misunderstood, or pushed aside because of your autism, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to deal with it silently.

In this episode of The Aspie World Podcast, I’m sharing practical strategies to help autistic adults handle bullying, set healthy boundaries, and protect their mental well-being. I’ll also explain why autistic people are more vulnerable to bullying and how you can stand up for yourself without masking or compromising who you are.

    The different types of bullying — at work, in relationships, and online
