“Singer Sia Reveals She’s on the Autism Spectrum in ‘Rob has A’ Podcast”

Guest of the “Rob has A” podcast, the singer Sia explained that she had been diagnosed with a form of autism: “I am on the spectrum”, said the interpreter of “Chandelier”. These revelations, the singer made them while she was talking with Carolyn Wiger, one of the finalists of the American reality show Survivor 44, suffering in particular from attention disorders (ADHD), and whose behavior during the show had led many of her fans to think that she had autism, reports the BBC.

Singer Sia then praised her for showing herself as she was, being “ready to be rejected, to be the weirdest”. “I don’t think anyone can ever know you and love you when you’re full of secrets,” continued Sia, 47, before explaining that she had long had the feeling of playing a role on her side.

“I felt like for 45 years I had to go put on my human costume,” she explained.

“And it’s only in the last two years that I’ve become fully myself,” said the artist, who was diagnosed as neuroatypical.

The term neuroatypical was coined by the autistic community to refer to people who have been diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome or another Autism Spectrum Disorder. For a number of years, the term neuro-atypical has taken on a broader meaning, encompassing people who have a “dys” disorder (dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, etc.), Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity, High Potential or other neurological difference. The term neurotypical (NT) refers to all other people.
