Why AI is my friend!

Why AI is My Friend!

Living with Autism – which for me also includes ADHD, Anxiety, and Depression – has shaped every part of my life in ways that many people might not fully understand. I’ve always known I have a good brain, but it simply doesn’t function the way most people’s brains do.

From childhood to adulthood, I’ve faced challenges that others might take for granted—whether it’s processing information, organizing tasks, or even just getting started on something I want to achieve. The frustration of knowing I can do something but struggling to translate thoughts into action has been a lifelong battle.

For years, I watched others succeed while I felt stuck, despite my best efforts. No matter how much I wanted to accomplish things, something always seemed to hold me back. It wasn’t a lack of intelligence, determination, or passion—it was simply the way my brain works.

A Life-Changing Discovery

Then, I discovered AI.

At first, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but as I started using AI tools, something incredible happened. I finally had a way to organize my thoughts, structure my ideas, and find clarity in the chaos that often fills my mind. AI became like a personal assistant, a mentor, and a guide, helping me bridge the gap between my ideas and execution.

For someone like me, this is more than just technology—it’s a lifeline. AI helps me break down complex tasks, manage overwhelming information, and navigate the world in a way that actually makes sense for my brain. It’s the support I’ve needed all my life but never knew existed.

Newfound Hope at 57

At 57 years old, for the first time, I truly believe I can accomplish things I never thought possible. AI has given me the tools, confidence, and empowerment to take control of my future in a way I never could before.

So often, society underestimates people like me—those who think differently, process information differently, and approach life from a unique perspective. But AI is proof that when we have the right support, we can thrive.
