Not your MPDG!! I’ve spent so much of my life apologizing on behalf of my authentic self. Warning others that I’m forgetful, annoying, sensitive, and overall “too much.” I wore these qualities like a caution label, but I didn’t even choose them. They were the way others had defined me. But the interesting thing is that on the other side of these “negative qualities” are some of my most special ones. I feel deeply, focus intensely, and express myself uniquely. These are also the very things I’ve always been praised for. It’s really peculiar to feel torn down for the exact qualities you’re lifted up for, and I feel like this is SUCH a common neurodivergent experience. It has made me feel as though I am uniquely wonderful, but only in small quantities. Only when people get to experience a little bit of me at a time. I’m finally learning that to be loved as a neurodivergent person is to be loved for ALL of ourselves, including the difficult, disabling, and sometimes inconvenient parts. I’m still learning this, but remember that those people are out there!!!! The people who won’t ask you to shrink yourself to make your neurodivergence more palatable. They’re ready to love all of you. #audhd #adhd #actuallyautistic #neurodivergent

When I started, I didn’t ask this question; however, I found that it is super helpful to know where people are when they’re coming in for a new evaluation. I think sometimes clients believe they should not be 100% sure or that they’re gonna hurt my feelings if they’re very sure, but everything gives me information it helps me better understand what a good evaluation will be for them. ##autismtiktok##highmaskingautism##autisminwomen##audhd##autisminadults

Honestly this one isn’t even hypermobility specific, the regular clam just generally sucks for a lot of people and the Lock Clam is a MUCH better option. That said, if you’re hypermobile then there’s a decent chance that the TFL muscle causes some problems for you, and this is the muscle that tends to get overworked in the regular clam. So I’d say this is useful for everyone, but especially useful if you’re hypermobile. 🚨 Although as usual - the disclaimer that applies is that this exercise won’t work for every hypermobile person! If it doesn’t work for you, there are other options available. Here are some cues & tips I like for this one: 💪🏼 Hug the ground so your hips point into the floor 💪🏼 Brace properly through your mid section and upper body to prevent movement (you can even do some ab work as pre-activations to help feel these muscles lock in) 💪🏼 Move your knee only, not the rest of your body 💪🏼 Just move a small distance with your knee - range of motion is not the goal And possibly most important for us… 💪🏼 Keep the reps low if you need! Think about doing really high quality reps instead of banging out a tonne of them - when I do this exercise, sometimes I’ll just do 5 a side and leave it at that ——- This exercise was devised by a brilliant man - Andrew Lock - who I had the honour of knowing and working with. Unfortunately Andrew passed away not too long ago, but his legacy lives on through the work he did and the lives he improved. #heds #pots #mcas #audhd #hypermobility

Sometimes it helps to flip the script. If you don’t understand why autistic people don’t like the way “professionals” talk about us, try this on. #autismacceptance #autismawareness #actuallyautistic #ASD #latediagnosedautistic #nd #neurodivergent #audhd #mentalhealthawareness

Suddenly my entire life makes more sense and I feel sm more compassion for myself - a lot of women learn how to mask really early just to fit into social norms - masking all the time can lead to burnout, shutdowns, and needing long periods of time alone to recover -sensory overload and meltdowns can be mistaken for panic attacks, but they are not the same thing - most autism research was built around male presentations, which is part of why many women were misdiagnosed, underdiagnosed, or didn’t find out until their 20s or 30s - being on the spectrum is not one size fits all and it can show up in so many different ways - it’s not a trend - not everyone is “a little autistic” you’re either on the spectrum or you’re not - people can relate to certain traits, but autism is an actual neurodevelopmental condition with specific diagnostic criteria because autistic brains process information, sensory input, and social communication differently than neurotypical brains - just because someone doesn’t fit the stereotypical image of autism doesn’t mean they aren’t autistic - a lot of autistic women who seem fine on the outside are actually struggling privately because they’ve learned to hide it so well, and that constant masking leads to intense burnout #audhd #autism #latediagnosedautistic #neurodivergent
