"Growing up, what I had come to learn was that my autistic identity was wrong; it was undesirable. People wanted me to be something else. I actually found that me as a drug user was more acceptable, me as an addict was more acceptable", says David Gray-Hammond. David joins this episode to discuss discuss autism and drug addiction, harmful stereotypes regarding schizophrenia, and how meditation has helped him.
