The other really cool thing about ADHD is this thing where I forgot I had an account on here
2. I often feel "less than" my colleagues, who somehow manage to work, have families, do housework, have social lives & not feel like they're drowning. I love my job, but work takes EVERYTHING out of me, and as a result my home is a mess, and I rarely go out with friends. #ADHD

2. The flip side to this is #hyperfocus. My job and the people I work with are my absolute #passion in life. It makes it easy for me to keep up with #evidencebasedpractice because I am obsessed with what I do!

1. #Passion. I worked really hard to get myself into a job I feel really passionate about, which includes my key interests - before I worked in #Neurodiversity and #trauma I had way less enjoyment in my job and often felt lost or bored.

#MySLTday there was a "Neurodiversity Questionnaire" sent around to staff today to "capture staff experience of #Neurodiversity in the #workplace". As a member of the team with #ADHD I think I'll share some of my experiences (good and bad) of being in a primarily NT team...

To other autistic people, does it feel weird for you to call people by their name?
Autism isn’t an excuse to be racist, sexist, ableist, homophobic, transphobic, fatphobic, Islamophobic, anti-SW, classist, supremacist, or anything of the sort. Skirting accountability with “but I’m autistic” only further infantilizes autistic people. You’re just an asshole.

I really don't understand why some people have such a big problem with Autistic people trying to earn a living, or even (shock horror) doing it well and being successful.

I honestly think the reason I was misdiagnosed as a child was both being a girl and ADHDer too. Autism and ADHD does present differently together that I don’t believe that’s often taken into account. Also I talk about this in my book being published in July!
In my view, Autism and ADHD assessments should come together. The co-occurrence is so common... plus often one masks the other so it's vital to unpick that and ensure everyone gets a timely, accurate understanding of who they are.
I don’t think we talk enough about eating disorders in trans/ non binary communities. The rhetoric that eating disorders aren’t about changing the physical appearance of one’s body is true for some but not all. Have we considered how gender dysphoria and dissatisfaction with…

what no-one tells you about a late autism diagnosis is that it’s near on impossible to heal from your trauma of being undiagnosed because you’re constantly dealt with more lol
What do you think about child growth charts? My son is on the 98th percentile. He was born 10 weeks early and was 5 1/2 lbs. The doctor said if he had gone to term he would have been a 10 lb baby - I measured and weighed him the other day - he's still on the 98th percentile - if…
Me 5 minutes before I go to bed: "So tired, I really need go get to bed and get some sleep now" The moment my head hits the pillow: "Remember that thing you said 5 years ago? How about all those decisions you need to make? What's the meaning of life?"
Two days is SO SHORT before going back to the 9-5. Weekends need to be 4 days long every week.
You know there are those moments when you struggle with your sexuality. Especially as a bisexual woman in a long term relationship with a man. And then Gillian Anderson plays Emily Maitlis. (Also, as a blind woman, thank you for the voice… excellent work).
