How Warhammer Helped Me Realize I’m Autistic
17I never thought a hobby about tiny plastic space robots would lead me to one of the biggest realizations of my life… but here we are.
For years, I was terrified to start Warhammer. I didn’t want to mess up, ask dumb questions, or look silly. But when my wife got me a Necron starter set for Christmas 2023, I finally took the plunge. And it didn’t just become my favorite hobby—it helped me understand myself in a way I never expected.
In this video, I share my journey from being too anxious to start Warhammer to fully embracing it—and how that process made me realize I might be a late-diagnosed autistic. From hyperfocus and number-crunching army lists to the pure joy of painting, I started connecting dots I didn’t even know existed.
If you’ve ever felt different, like you don’t quite fit in, or if you’ve been hesitant to start Warhammer because you’re worried about ‘getting it wrong’—this video is for you. You’re not alone.
