PDA, Neurodivergence & the Perpetually Determined Advocate Cassandre

After reading an article about the large numbers of women seeking assessment and diagnosis for neurodivergent conditions, I wanted to dive into this a bit more than in previous episodes.

Today, I sat down with my own little PDAer, talked to him about some of the things he goes through, and what he wishes others knew about neurodivergent people.

In this "happy to be back" episode, I wanted to provide a list of places to look for more information whether you're simply looking to learn more about PDA in general, a parent of a PDAer looking for support or resources, or a PDAer yourself looking for community. Below is a list of the resources mentioned in today's episode.

Taking the yearly October break to prep for the next run of the pod! Catch you all back here in November!

It's that time of year. As we all struggle with the uncertainty of this time, I thought I would share what our experience has been in another more relatable than informative episode.

Today's episode is equal parts rant and information. I recently discovered some horrifying details about the state of psychiatric inpatient care.
