Sia reveals autism diagnosis: “I have fully become myself”
Sia has revealed in a new interview that she has been diagnosed with autism and is on the spectrum.Speaking to Rob Cesternino and Carolyn Wiger on a recent Rob Has A Podcast episode, the singer-songwriter said she is “on the spectrum, and I’m in recovery and whatever. There’s a lot of things.”While Sia did not share explicitly when she was diagnosed, she alluded that it was a recent development over the past two years: “For 45 years, I was like, ‘I’ve got to go put my human suit on,’ and only in the last two years have I become fully, fully myself.”Carolyn Wiger, a drug counsellor and former contestant on Survivor 44, thanked Sia for being candid and open about her situation, to which the singer replied: “Being in recovery and also knowing about which kind of neurologicality you might have, or might not have, well, I think one of the greatest things is that nobody can ever know you and love you when you’re filled with secrets and living in shame.”Sia also opened up about receiving treatment for substance abuse, saying: “When we finally sit in a room full of strangers and tell them our deepest darkest most shameful secrets and everybody laughs along with us, and we don’t feel like pieces of trash for the first time, we feel seen for the first time in our lives for who we actually are and then we can start going out into the world as operators just operating as humans.”Sia came under fire in 2021 for her directorial debut with the movie Music, in which Maddie Ziegler stars as the titular nonverbal autistic teenager.
