    Ep 23: AuDHD Experience - Joy, Strengths and Quality of Life

    Send us Fan Mail 🎙 Episode 23: AuDHD Experience - Joy, Strengths and Quality of Life "Strengths-based framings sit alongside, not instead of, our support needs — so keep both ideas in mind." In this episode of AuDHD Psych, Aaron explores joy, strengths, and quality of life for AuDHDers — moving past both the deficit-and-disorder framing and the neurodivergent-superpower narrative to find the partial truth in each. Drawing on recent research, he unpacks the strengths autistic and ADHD people endorse (pattern recognition, hyperfocus, humour, creativity), how flow, hyperfocus, and monotropism overlap, and why our strengths are linked to well-being when we name and use them. He also looks at what genuinely lifts quality of life — affirming relationships, good environmental fit, support, and community — while warning against environments that extract our strengths without supporting our needs. Takeaways: Neither the deficit-and-disorder framing nor the superpower narrative is the full truth — strengths-based framings sit alongside, not instead of, our support needs.Research backs the strengths neurodivergent people describe: autistic strengths like pattern recognition, detail orientation, systematising, deep expertise, and a justice orientation; ADHD strengths like hyperfocus, humour, and creativity, endorsed well above the typical community.Strengths are linked to well-being — first by knowing and naming them, then by using them in your life. ADHD creativity and divergent thinking are also linked to real-world achievement and even deliberate mind-wandering.Flow, hyperfocus, and monotropism share much of the same terrain — feeling good in the doing and getting to unmask — but it's a dose-response curve: restorative up to a point, then a driver of burnout.Monotropism appears to be transdiagnostic, scoring above the general population in both autistic people and ADHDers, and underpins special interests as a well-being variable.Autistic adults score lower across all four WHO well-being domains, with autistic women carrying a disproportionate burden — but employment, support, and relationships are concrete, observable improvers.Quality over quantity: a few reciprocal, accepting, affirming relationships support well-being far more than many social contacts. A positive autistic identity, mediated by external acceptance and community, also lifts quality of life.Much of the "disorder" we diagnose reflects a mismatch between person and environment, not an inherent flaw — Milton's double empathy problem reframes communication "deficits" as differences that dissolve in affirming spaces.Beware extraction: environments that benefit from your strengths without supporting your difficulties are a structural problem requiring a structural fix — environmental, cognitive, sensory, and social accommodations.Reflect on three of your own neurodivergent strengths and where you apply them, and seek out environments and community where you can unmask and feel safe — joy and well-being are real, and joy is a variable of well-being.Keywords: AuDHD, neurodivergent strengths, joy, quality of life, monotropism, hyperfocus, flow, well-being, special interests, double empathy problem, environmental fit, burnout, affirming community, different not defective Support the show Keywords: AuDHD podcast, autism and ADHD, neurodivergent psychologist, neurodiversity affirming, Howearth Psychology, queer psychologist, autism diagnosis, ADHD awareness, lived experience, neurodivergent mental health, clinical psychology podcast

    Ep 22: AuDHD Experience – Suicidality & Protective Factors

    Send us Fan Mail ⚠️ Content note: This episode discusses suicide and suicidal thoughts directly and at length. It is general education, not personal advice. If this feels like a lot, please pause and reach out to a support service (Australian helplines listed at the end). Episode 22: AuDHD Experience – Suicidality & Protective Factors In this episode of the AuDHD Psych Podcast, clinical psychologist Aaron Howearth explores why suicidality risk is higher in neurodivergent communities — and why that risk is not inherent to being autistic, ADHD, or AuDHD. Drawing on clinical work, lived experience, and recent research, Aaron is clear that elevated risk is an outcome of the interaction between neurodivergent people and environments that don't accommodate them. The through-line of the whole conversation: we are different, not defective, and it's not your fault. Aaron unpacks the mechanisms behind heightened risk — constant masking leading to defeat and entrapment, thwarted belonging and a sense of burdensomeness, isolation and minority stress, and unmet support needs. He then turns to crisis care and affirming support, with a direct message to clinicians about flat affect, sensory-hostile environments, and the difference between autism, ADHD, AuDHD and trauma. The episode closes on hope: the protective factors and practical safety-planning scripts that can genuinely reduce risk. Key Themes & Takeaways Risk Is Real, Not Inherent – Suicidality is elevated in neurodivergent communities, but it reflects environmental mismatch and accumulated stress, not a flaw in the person.Masking → Defeat → Entrapment – Constant camouflaging is exhausting and, when reinforced over time, can drive feelings of defeat and entrapment.Belonging & Burdensomeness – Thwarted belonging and a sense of being "a burden" can heighten risk, especially alongside complex trauma histories.Isolation & Minority Stress – Social exclusion, sensory load, and the extra stresses of being a disempowered group compound over time.Crisis Care Can Fail Us – Flat affect being misread and sensory-hostile crisis settings can drive disengagement from support.Affirming Care Matters – Sensory and communication accommodations, and directly asking about risk, help people feel safe enough to engage.Protective Factors – Positive childhood experiences, community and belonging, unmasking, and sensory fit all reduce risk.Safety Planning Works – Make a safety plan while you're well, with someone you trust — it's yours, and it can change over time.

    Ep 21: AuDHD Experience - Trauma, CPTSD & Systems Harm

    Send us Fan Mail Episode 21 – Trauma, PTSD & Systems Harm What if you're not "too much," "too complex," or "treatment resistant"? What if the very systems designed to help neurodivergent people are inadvertently causing harm instead? In this episode, Aaron explores the deep intersection between neurodivergence and trauma — and why so many AuDHDers, autistic folks, and ADHDers find themselves stuck in cycles of misdiagnosis, invalidation, and burnout. What we cover The difference between big T trauma (PTSD) and complex trauma (cPTSD), and why complex trauma is so prevalent in neurodivergent communitiesWhy neurodivergent people are statistically more exposed to trauma, bullying, social exclusion, and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs)How diagnostic overshadowing leads clinicians to mislabel trauma responses as personality disorders — or dismiss them entirelyThe structural harms baked into school systems, healthcare, and historical practices like ABAHow masking, allostatic load, and burnout compound trauma and erode identityWhy service avoidance is often a reasonable response to repeated invalidationThe link between systems harm, hopelessness, and elevated suicidality in our communitiesPractical scripts for advocating with GPs, psychologists, and other clinicians when you feel unheard Key takeaway The "complexity" so often attributed to neurodivergent clients usually isn't about us — it's about a mismatch between our characteristics, our histories, and systems built for someone else. Understanding trauma and neurodivergence together makes the "complex" much less complex.

    Ep20: AuDHD Experience - Misdiagnosis, BPD & Mental Health in Late-Diagnosed Adults

    Send us Fan Mail Episode 20: AuDHD Explained — Misdiagnosis, BPD & Mental Health in Late-Diagnosed Adults In this episode of the AuDHD Psych Podcast, clinical psychologist Aaron Howearth and co-host Dan unpack why mental health diagnosis is so complex for AuDHDers, and why so many of us collect a stack of labels — depression, generalised anxiety, borderline personality disorder, bipolar, treatment-resistant depression — before Autism and ADHD are ever properly considered. Drawing on clinical work, lived experience, and the qualitative research literature, Aaron explains how diagnostic overshadowing happens, why internalising presentations are most at risk of misdiagnosis, and what genuinely neurodiversity-affirming assessment looks like in practice. Aaron and Dan work through the mechanics of overshadowing — how a clinician's existing diagnostic lens quietly re-explains every new symptom and closes the door on alternative formulations — and the elevated mental health risks that ride alongside AuDHD, including anxiety, depression, self-harm and suicidality. They examine why biological females and internalising males are disproportionately mislabelled with borderline personality disorder when emotional impulsivity, rejection sensitivity and rigid thought patterns are actually expressions of an undiagnosed AuDHD profile. They then move into the practical: how to script questions for your clinician without it landing as an attack, why differential diagnosis and formulation are the antidote to overshadowing, and how late diagnosis reframes self-concept from "bad person, not trying hard enough" to environment-fit. Throughout, the conversation returns to the affirming reframe — difficulties arise from the mismatch between who you are and what the environment expects, not from a defective self. Key Themes & Takeaways Co-occurrence Is the Rule, Not the Exception – Around 40% of autistic people have a co-occurring mental health condition, ADHDers are similarly elevated, and AuDHDers sit at higher risk again for anxiety, depression, self-harm and suicidality.Diagnostic Overshadowing Defined – Once a clinician holds one diagnostic lens, new symptoms get re-explained through it, and alternative formulations stop being considered.The Observation Fallacy – Clinicians can only diagnose what they know to look for; if AuDHD isn't on the radar, the symptoms get mapped to whatever lens is familiar.BPD as the Classic Misdiagnosis – Emotional impulsivity, rejection sensitivity, identity disturbance and rigid thought can all be AuDHD expressions, particularly in biological females and internalisers whose presentations don't match the externalising male stereotype that built the diagnostic criteria.1 in 5 Autistic Adults Report Overshadowing – Lived experience and self-report research show roughly 20% of autistic adults have experienced misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis tied to overshadowing.Treatment-Resistant Doesn't Mean Broken – When treatment plans target the wrong formulation, "not responding" is a systems failure, not a character flaw or proof of imposter syndrome.Differential Diagnosis & Formulation – Good assessment ticks the diagnostic boxes and excludes confounds, situating symptoms inside developmental history, sensory profile, trauma, family history and cognitive profile.Neurodiversity-Affirming Assessment – Goes beyond awareness to actively consider AuDHD interactions, masking effects, and the cognitive and sensory differences that shape presentation and treatment.Scripting for Appointments – Lines like "I'm wondering how you came to that conclusion — do you have a formulation that led to the treatment plan?" make hard conversations doable without landing as an attack on the clinician.Self-Knowledge Is a Clinical Safety Issue – Understanding your own formulation isn't an optional extra; it protects against decades of misfitting diagnoses and treatments built on the wrong foundation.Late Diagnosis Reframes Self-Concept – Understanding your characteristics through an AuDHD lens replaces years of "bad person, not trying hard enough" narratives with environment-fit explanations and self-forgiveness.Hard Mode Is Context-Specific – AuDHDers may live life on hard mode for admin and rigid-rule contexts while playing easy mode for problem-solving and pattern recognition; diagnosis is a context map, not a verdict.Different, Not Defective – Change the environment and the expectations, and the same characteristics that look like disorder in one setting become strengths in another.Scripts to use with your clinicians: Re-Assessment Request: "I have been carrying these diagnoses for a long time and the treatments have not led to the changes I had hoped for. I would like to ask whether autism, ADHD or AuDHD has ever been formally considered as part of the formulation, and what a neurodiversity-informed assessment might look like."  Formulation Question: "Can we look at this together as a formulation rather than only as a diagnosis? I would like to understand how my sensory experience, my history of masking and burnout, my executive functioning, and my life context are being weighed in the picture you are forming."  Diagnostic Overshadowing Prompt: "I am concerned that some of what I am experiencing is being explained primarily by my existing diagnosis. Can we slow down and consider whether there is something else, including potentially a neurodevelopmental factor, that needs to be assessed in its own right?"  Support the show Keywords: AuDHD podcast, autism and ADHD, neurodivergent psychologist, neurodiversity affirming, Howearth Psychology, queer psychologist, autism diagnosis, ADHD awareness, lived experience, neurodivergent mental health, clinical psychology podcast

    Ep 19: AuDHD Explained - More Than the Sum of Its Autism + ADHD Parts - Cognitive Differences, Energy Economy & Late Diagnosis

    Send us Fan Mail Episode 19: AuDHD Is More Than the Sum of Its Parts – Cognitive Differences, Energy Economy & Late Diagnosis In this episode of the AuDHD Psych Podcast, clinical psychologist Aaron Howearth and co-host Dan explore why AuDHD isn't simply Autism plus ADHD, but a distinct presentation with its own cognitive, emotional, and behavioural fingerprint. Drawing on clinical work, lived experience, and recent research, Aaron traces the diagnostic history back to the DSM-5 (2013) — the first time Autism and ADHD could be formally co-diagnosed — and explains why anyone diagnosed before 2015 may have had half their neurotype missed. Aaron and Dan dig into the cognitive differences that set AuDHD apart, including a study showing AuDHD young people experience greater difficulties than their autistic or ADHD peers across planning, attention, simultaneous processing, and successive processing. They unpack the energy economy of AuDHD — how the tug-of-war between routine-seeking autistic characteristics and novelty-seeking, impulsive ADHD characteristics drives masking, burnout, anxiety, and depression — and reframe these patterns through a "different, not defective" lens that centres environment, context, and self-knowledge. Throughout, they offer practical, shame-free reflections on self-identification, late diagnosis grief, adaptive functioning, finding affirming clinicians, and the strengths of an AuDHD problem-solving brain. Key Themes & Takeaways AuDHD Is Not Just Additive – AuDHD includes autistic characteristics, ADHD characteristics, and unique features that exist outside either diagnosis on its own. Diagnostic History Matters – Pre-2013 DSM rules blocked co-diagnosis, meaning many adults diagnosed before 2015 likely had half their profile missed. Cognitive Profile Differences – Research suggests AuDHD young people show greater differences across planning, attention, simultaneous and successive processing than autistic-only or ADHD-only peers. Energy Economy & Burnout – Holding routine-seeking and novelty-seeking together costs cognitive and emotional energy, increasing masking, stress, and burnout risk. Anxiety, Depression & Internalising – AuDHDers are more likely to internalise and mask, layering additional anxiety on top of the additive load of both neurotypes.Early vs Late Diagnosis – Late identification can bring grief for "what could have been," but also self-forgiveness and the relief of finally understanding your own brain. Adaptive Functioning in Daily Life – From booking holidays to grocery shopping and showering, AuDHD cognitive differences ripple into self-concept, health, and PDA-style avoidance. Strengths of the AuDHD Brain – Systems and detail orientation (Autism) plus associative, tangential thinking (ADHD) creates a powerful problem-solving brain. Self-Advocacy with Clinicians – Ask for assessment of both Autism and ADHD, and check the clinician understands current AuDHD-specific science, masking interactions, and lived experience research. Reframing "In Between" – AuDHDers aren't half-autistic and half-ADHD; they're both and more — a whole buffet of characteristics, not a single dish. Different, Not Defective – Change the environment and expectations, and the same characteristics that hinder in one context can serve you in another.Support the show Keywords: AuDHD podcast, autism and ADHD, neurodivergent psychologist, neurodiversity affirming, Howearth Psychology, queer psychologist, autism diagnosis, ADHD awareness, lived experience, neurodivergent mental health, clinical psychology podcast

    Ep 18: AuDHD Experience - Time Blindness, Planning & Task Initiation

    Send us Fan Mail 🎙️ Episode 18: Understanding AuDHD in the Real World - Time Blindness, Planning & Task Initiation In this episode of the AuDHD Psych Podcast, clinical psychologist Aaron Howearth and co‑host Dan explore why getting started on “simple” tasks can feel impossibly hard for AuDHD brains, even when the motivation and desire are absolutely there. Drawing on clinical work and lived experience, Aaron explains prospective memory (remembering to do things in the future), time blindness, and executive function differences that turn “make a phone call” or “apply for uni” into an overwhelming tangle of steps, fears, and past experiences of running out of time. Aaron and Dan unpack the urgency cycle and last‑minute sprint – why panic can act as a powerful attention anchor, but also reinforces anxiety, exhaustion, and the belief that you “only work under pressure.” They tease apart procrastination from task initiation difficulty, and look at how ADHD impulsivity and autistic set‑shifting differences interact in AuDHD, making it harder to switch away from interests toward boring, complex, or ambiguous tasks. Throughout, they offer practical, shame‑free strategies like timers, reminders, body doubling, and micro‑steps, while emphasising self‑compassion: this isn’t laziness, it’s a different brain that needs different tools. Key Themes & Takeaways Prospective Memory & Time Blindness – How remembering future intentions and accurately sensing time are both executive functions that often work differently in AuDHD.Planning Load & Overwhelm – Why not knowing all the steps (e.g., applying for uni, legal admin) makes tasks feel impossibly big and easy to avoid.Urgency Cycle & “Last‑Minute Only” Mode – How relying on panic to get started reinforces anxiety, burnout, and the belief that you can’t begin until it’s almost too late.AuDHD Interaction, Not Just Addition – How ADHD impulsivity/inattention plus autistic set‑shifting and intense interests create unique patterns of inertia and stuckness.Task Initiation vs Procrastination – Differentiating moralised “putting things off” from genuine difficulty initiating action, even on important, wanted tasks.Timers, Reminders & External Time Anchors – Using visual/auditory timers, layered reminders, and alarms to compensate for internal time blindness.Body Doubling & Social Accountability – How doing tasks alongside another person (in‑person or virtual) can anchor attention and make planning or admin more doable.Micro‑Steps & First‑Step Reframes – Breaking tasks into tiny, concrete actions (“just set the alarm,” “just make the call”) to reduce overwhelm and build new patterns.Self‑Compassion Over Shame – Reframing “lazy” or “inconvenient” narratives into an understanding that AuDHD brains need tailored strategies, not harsher self‑talk.Support the show Keywords: AuDHD podcast, autism and ADHD, neurodivergent psychologist, neurodiversity affirming, Howearth Psychology, queer psychologist, autism diagnosis, ADHD awareness, lived experience, neurodivergent mental health, clinical psychology podcast

    Ep 17: AuDHD Experience - Sensory Processing and Overwhelm in ADHD, Autism & AuDHD

    Send us Fan Mail 🎙️ Episode 17: Understanding AuDHD in the Real World - Sensory Processing and Overwhelm in ADHD, Autism & AuDHD Episode Summary In this episode of The AuDHD Psych Podcast, Aaron Howearth explores how sensory profiles shape daily life for autistic, ADHD, and AuDHD individuals. Why does a flickering light, a chatty colleague, or a tag in your shirt seem to "set you off" — when really, you've been quietly carrying that load all day? Drawing from clinical psychology and lived experience, Aaron explains how neurodivergent nervous systems often process sight, sound, touch, smell, taste, balance, and body position differently from the average person. He unpacks why these differences are not defects, but a mismatch between our sensory profile and environments built for typical sensory experience. Aaron introduces the build-up model of overwhelm — how small sensory costs accumulate across the day until what looks like an overreaction is actually a proportionate response to hours of unseen strain. He links sensory load to attention, masking, emotional regulation, and burnout, and explains how sensory gating, hidden coping, and reduced tolerance can spiral into a vicious cycle. This episode offers validation, language, and practical strategies for identifying high-cost sensory channels, designing neuroaffirming environments, and treating sensory fit as a legitimate accessibility issue rather than special treatment. Key Themes & Takeaways Sensory Profiles Explained – How autism, ADHD, and AuDHD involve over- and under-sensitivity across multiple sensory dimensions. The Build-Up Model of Overwhelm – Why the "last straw" reaction reflects cumulative load, not fragility. Sensory Gating & Attention – How difficulty filtering input amplifies inattention, frustration, and cognitive fatigue. Masking the Sensory Cost – How suppressing sensory reactions drains energy and feeds burnout. Mental Health Impact – Why visual, auditory, and tactile sensitivities strongly link to anxiety, mood, and overwhelm. Environmental Design – Practical adjustments: lighting, headphones, quiet zones, predictability, exits, and breaks. Tracking What Works – Why outcomes matter more than assumed-helpful strategies. Reframing Overreaction – Moving from "too sensitive" to recognising a nervous system doing extra work in a world not built for it.

    Ep 16: AuDHD Experience - Masking, Burnout & Unmasking in ADHD, Autism & AuDHD

    Send us Fan Mail 🎙️ Episode 16: AuDHD in the Real World - Masking, Burnout & Unmasking Episode Summary In this episode of the AuDHD Psych Podcast, Aaron Howearth unpacks masking and camouflaging as neurodivergent survival strategies. He explains how autistic and ADHD people learn conscious and unconscious ways of “passing” as typical, such as practised eye contact, softened honesty, and scripted conversations, often long before they have words for their neurodivergence. Aaron explores how this constant self‑monitoring and suppression of stims, emotions, and sensory needs drains cognitive and emotional energy, contributing to exhaustion, low social battery, and executive functioning crashes. He also touches on late diagnosis, identity confusion, and grief around not knowing “where the mask ends and I begin.” Throughout, he reframes “disorder” as a mismatch between neurodivergent needs and environmental demands, normalises collapse after masking‑heavy days, and invites listeners to compare one high‑cost masking context with one low‑mask or safe environment. Key Themes & Takeaways What Masking Is – Compensatory behaviours neurodivergent people use to meet typical social, sensory, and behavioural expectations and to “pass” as non‑neurodivergent.Conscious vs Unconscious Masking – Habits like practised eye contact versus deliberate strategies such as softening blunt corrections or scripting conversations.Cognitive Load & Exhaustion – Self‑monitoring, impulse suppression, and managing tone, face, and stims consume working memory and lead to exhaustion and executive crashes.Sensory & Stim Suppression – Hiding stims and enduring uncomfortable environments increase stress and reduce emotional and cognitive capacity.Identity & Imposter Feelings – Long‑term masking can blur the line between self and performance, fuelling imposter syndrome and grief about “who I could have been.”Masking as Safety Behaviour – Framed as a survival strategy to avoid stigma and rejection, even while it can worsen mental health over time.Mismatch, Not Defectiveness – “Disorder” is located in the mismatch between neurodivergent traits and environmental expectations, not in personal failure.High‑ vs Low‑Cost Contexts – Listeners are invited to notice where masking is most draining versus where they can be more authentic and safe.Reframing Collapse – Post‑social collapse and burnout are described as the result of prolonged effort in non‑accommodating spaces, not weakness.Community & Normalisation – Competence collapse, grief, and confusion are positioned as common, shared neurodivergent experiences rather than individual defects.
