I got diagnosed with autism when I was 29 (this year.) I discovered heartbreak high shortly after, and even though she is a teenager and I'm almost 30, I still felt like "this character is me." I showed everyone I care about all the big Quinni scenes, especially the meltdown episode, because I needed them to see what my lived experience feels like and that I'm not alone in it.

The representation of Autism in Quinni is so incredibly important! Truly life changing and affirming for so many to finally experience seeing ourselves represented and to feel seen and affirmed.. It's actually indescribable. Thank you Chloé Hayden and the show's creators! What you've done is SO powerful 💖💖💖

I am listening to her audio book now, and I cry because of the similarities we had growing up. I was diagnosed later in life, but I can remember my childhood, etc. I wish to thank Chloe Hayden and her willingness to share her stories with the world to bring about more autism/adhd and other neurodiversity awareness
