Autism Feels

ground breaking book by acclaimed author Orion Kelly

‘Too honest. Too real. Too helpful.’
– #autismmom

‘Inspirational in a way that makes you grateful to be normal.’
– Ableism Magazine

“Not bad for an Autistic person.”
– Passive Discrimination Weekly

If autism has touched your life and you’re feeling overwhelmed from confusion and questions, enter the visceral world of Orion Kelly to gain a better understanding and appreciation for how Autism Feels… from the perspective of an everyday Autistic guy, husband and father to an Autistic child.

With his razor-sharp perception and laugh-or-you’ll-cry humour, Orion sorts the damaging myths from deep Autistic truths as he explores the signs and reasons behind Autistic meltdown, shutdown and burnout, and how to aid recovery from sensory overload. Using real examples and vastly practical tips, Autism Feels… casts welcome light on a new approach to Autistic/neurotypical communication, interactions and relationship as well as insightful methods to support your Autistic child to achieve success.

Orion’s life mission to improve the opportunities and life experiences of Autistic and neurodivergent people everywhere is making huge waves as he refuses to passively accept the status quo of discrimination and misconceptions Autistic people experience in every aspect of a neurotypical, foreign world.

“Read it and learn Earthlings.”

About Orion Kelly

Orion Kelly is proudly Autistic and dedicated to raising your level of understanding, acceptance and appreciation of Autistic people.

Orion lived undiagnosed for decades until after the birth of his first child. His adult diagnosis was a revelation and a turning point, illuminating the beauty of neurological differences that exist within human beings, as well as acknowledging the enormous struggles and challenges of trying to live life in a world designed for neurotypical people.

Today, Orion crusades tirelessly for better awareness, respect and opportunities for his Autistic son than he experienced at school and every neurotypical workplace he battled in. Using his passion for communication and content creation, Orion’s perceptive, often provoking insights as an Autistic person cut to the heart of humanity’s incapacity for tolerance and accepting differences.

Along with his Autistic advocacy, Orion is a consultant, keynote speaker, author, actor, host, YouTuber, podcaster and radio broadcaster based in Victoria, Australia. Orion hosts the podcast “My Friend Autism” and has his own Autistic-focused YouTube channel. Orion also hosts and produces podcasts for organisations and companies, MCs events and is available as a keynote speaker.

Orion has also worked as a presenter for Seven (Perth), Fremantle Dockers Football Club (Perth), Southern Cross Ten (Gippsland) and Crown Casino (Melbourne).
