    S1. Ep5. Narcissistic abuse - What Autistics need to know

    What is "narcissistic abuse", and why do Autistic people need to be particularly aware and vigilant? Are we more at risk to fall prey of abusers, and why? Why are we at risk from some misdiagnosing or assuming Autistic people are narcissistic? Join Kitty and Philip as they chat all things narcissistic abuse, distinguish between simple narcissistic traits and NPD - the overuse of the term today, and how it all relates to our community… stay safe from vampires!𐙚⋆°。⋆♡Follow us!

    S1. Ep3. Autistic zebras (co-morbid conditions)

    Did you know that if you are Autistic, there are certain physical health conditions you might be more likely to be born with and develop? Both Kitty (she/ here) and Erinn (they/ them) have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), a connective tissue disorder. As well as this Kitty has Epilepsy, and Erinn FND... both have plenty of other co-morbidiities too, and plenty to chat about! An important episode if you're Autistic and experiencing some mystery health problems. There is a serious lack of awareness for many of these conditions in Ireland. Watch and share and sub/ follow, to help us reach more people that might need this life-saving information. YOU could be a "medical zebra"... see links below. ..𐙚⋆°。⋆♡SUB & FOLLOW US!

    S1. Ep2. From N*zis to manic pixie dreams girls - Autism history & culture

    In todays unscripted ramblings of two Autistic besties, we delve deep in to our history and culture. *TW* for bad people and times... If you are Autistic, please take care watching/ listening to this one. There are plenty of laughs (mostly at my own jokes), but exploring our historical journey and social perceptions is a tough ride... Grab your teddy bear, fidget tools, three beverages and strap in. Leave a comment too if you have noticed the "Manic Pixie Dream Girl" troupe in any recent films, or is it a thing of the past? (now we just have m3n seeking it in real life... hurray :/). 𐙚⋆°。⋆♡SUB & FOLLOW US!
