Some of my favorite blogs on autism, mental health and Christianity

Here are some blogs I follow written by women with autism spectrum disorder. I hope you find them to be as resourceful as I have.

1. Anonymously Autistic ("Anna")

2. Everyday Aspie (Samantha Craft)

Here are two blogs I follow regarding mental health (autism, though not a mental illness, is an included topic with both, and a Christian worldview in the second.

1. Broken Light Photography Collective (Danielle Hark)
A positive place to share your photos and mental health story.

2. Confessions (Matthew Malin)
A blog about mental health where you now can share your confessions about mental health and your Christian faith (though you don't have to be Christian to visit or contribute).
