Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Secretary of Health and Human Services, recently announced that he'd be “revealing” the “cause of autism” this month. It's true that rates of diagnosis have gone up over the past 20 years — from 1 in 150 kids to 1 in 31 — but autism advocates are worried that Kennedy's mission will do more harm than good. In the past, RFK Jr. has spread disinformation about vaccines, including exhaustively disproven links to autism. (Seriously, we're talking thousands of studies on millions of patients. Vaccines do not cause autism!) Now the Wall Street Journal has reported that his new theory is about the use of Tylenol in pregnancy. But just last year, the Journal of the American Medical Association published a huge study proving that Tylenol isn't linked to autism or ADHD.Most doctors believe that autism is caused by genetics, and kids with a sibling or parent who's autistic are more likely to be diagnosed themselves. A study published in 2019 estimated the heritability of autism at about 80%, about the same as the heritability of height. So then… what's causing the spike in autism? The answer is simple: we're getting better at diagnosing it.Doctors have especially made strides in diagnosing women and girls. Autistic girls often struggle more internally than externally and their response may look like shyness, which our society finds more acceptable in girls than in boys. Across all genders and ages, no two people with autism are exactly the same. If RFK Jr. actually talked to anyone with autism, he might realize that he's pushing stereotypes and disinformation.And on top of all that, RFK Jr. and Trump have actually cut more than 50 federal research projects on autism, firing scientists who have been working on this for years. If they really wanted to help people with autism, why would they cut that funding?In this week's episode of Okay, But Why, we're exploring what we do and don't know about autism, busting myths and disinformation, and hearing from actual autistic people in their own words.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

Dr Greg Cejas, an autism specialist, and researcher in the Department of Psychiatry at Wash U School of Medicine joins Megan Lynch ahead of a rumored report from HHS Secretary RFK Jr linking acetaminophen use and autism. Autism is, 'predominantly a genetically caused syndrome,' says Cejas.

In this episode I'm talking with Julie Green, author of the memoir Motherness, a powerful exploration of generational autism, parenthood, and radical acceptance. Julie, who was late-diagnosed herself and is raising an autistic child, takes us inside her journey of self-discovery and diagnosis, and we talk about the emotional complexities of coming to understand our own neurodivergence while parenting neurodivergent kids. We explore the healing power of writing, the importance of storytelling and compassion, and the challenges many families like ours face along the way. Julie's memoir is a testament to these shared experiences, and this conversation is a deeply honest look at what it means to parent—and to live—with radical acceptance. About Julie Green Julie Green is the author of Motherness, a memoir about generational autism, parenthood, and radical acceptance, released by ECW Press in September 2025. Her writing has appeared in the Washington Post, HuffPost, Parents, The Globe and Mail, Chatelaine, Today's Parent, and more. She has been featured on CTV, BBC Radio, Global News, Sirius XM, and other media outlets, and was a finalist for the CBC Nonfiction Prize in 2024. Through her platform The Autistic Mom, Julie shares her lived experience as a late-diagnosed autistic woman raising an autistic child. Things you'll learn from this episode  How Julie's decade-long journey to understanding her neurodivergence was shaped by limited representation for autistic women Why writing became an essential tool for Julie to process her experiences and emotions How receiving a formal diagnosis brought relief and clarity to her life story Why Julie's memoir Motherness shines a light on the complexities of parenting an autistic child while navigating her own identity How practicing self-compassion and protecting her child's privacy are central to Julie's storytelling Why community, connection, and embracing one's identity remain vital for neurodivergent individuals and families Resources mentioned Motherness virtual book launch on September 23 (free registration via EventBrite) Julie Green's website Motherness: A Memoir of Generational Autism, Parenthood, and Radical Acceptance by Julie Green Julie's Substack, The Autistic Mom The Electricity of Every Living Thing: A Woman's Walk in the Wild to Find Her Way Home by Katherine May Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times by Katherine May Katherine May and the Electricity of Every Living Thing (Tilt Parenting podcast) Learn more about your ad choices.

EXCLUSIVE: Bryan Kohberger's Meds EXPOSED: Levothyroxine And How It Interacts With Autism-1, OCD, ADHD, ARFID This one turns on a detail almost everyone missed: a National Drug Code visible in a released photo packet. Stacy traced it to levothyroxine, a standard medication for hypothyroidism. We're not doing medical cosplay here—and we're not blaming a pill. We're asking a practical question: if a thyroid is under-functioning (or treatment is poorly tuned), how might that interact with an already heavy stack of diagnoses—Autism Level 1, OCD, ADHD, ARFID? When thyroid chemistry drifts off target, people can experience agitation, sleep disruption, mood volatility, and obsessive spirals. None of that explains or excuses violence. But it can amplify tendencies—especially if support and management are thin. In a world where a GP can label you and wave goodbye, you end up with a body that won't cooperate, a brain that's grinding its gears, and a life where fixations masquerade as structure. We connect that medical clue to what we saw in the photos: the sparsity, the random pockets of mess, the closet detritus that clashes with the “he's rigid about everything” narrative. Maybe he was rigid about some things and chaotic about others. That's not unusual. It's human. Add in ARFID-style food rules and a vegetarian fixation, and you get a portrait of narrow control lanes surrounded by disorder—and a person who may have mistaken copyable rituals for identity. Important: Levothyroxine is a common, life-improving medication when properly dosed. The point here is context. If the physiology is off and the psychology is overloaded, you get turbulence. That turbulence doesn't create monsters—but it can fuel patterns we later recognize in hindsight. If this kind of granular breakdown helps you think more clearly about the case—and about how medical and behavioral factors collide—subscribe, comment your take, and share this segment with someone who cares about the details.

Hi friends, welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast. I'm Tara, a speech-language pathologist who has spent over 25 years working with young autistic children and their families. Today, we're going to talk about a topic that brings up a lot of feelings for educators, therapists, and parents: the Picture Exchange Communication System, or PECS. Specifically, why PECS isn't enough for preschoolers. Now, before I dive in, I want to be clear—PECS is not evil. It's not “bad.” For many kids, it has opened the door to communication, and that's something to celebrate. But PECS, on its own, isn't enough. Our preschoolers need more than compliance-based exchanges to build rich, lifelong communication. Takeaways PECS was created in the 1990s to teach kids to request items using pictures. Traditional PECS training often emphasized compliance over authentic communication. Rigid use of PECS protocols sometimes caused frustration and meltdowns in children. PECS has major limitations, including prompt dependency and a narrow focus on requests. Research shows PECS helps with requesting, but not broader communication or social connection. Evidence-based practice must balance research, clinical experience, and client perspectives. Autistic adults report that PECS can restrict autonomy, dignity, and language development. PECS can be a stepping stone, but should not be the final communication system. Robust AAC systems provide greater vocabulary, flexibility, and authentic language use. Communication should always prioritize connection, not compliance.

Stacy traced it to levothyroxine, a standard medication for hypothyroidism. We're not doing medical cosplay here—and we're not blaming a pill. We're asking a practical question: if a thyroid is under-functioning (or treatment is poorly tuned), how might that interact with an already heavy stack of diagnoses—Autism Level 1, OCD, ADHD, ARFID? When thyroid chemistry drifts off target, people can experience agitation, sleep disruption, mood volatility, and obsessive spirals. None of that explains or excuses violence. But it can amplify tendencies—especially if support and management are thin. In a world where a GP can label you and wave goodbye, you end up with a body that won't cooperate, a brain that's grinding its gears, and a life where fixations masquerade as structure. We connect that medical clue to what we saw in the photos: the sparsity, the random pockets of mess, the closet detritus that clashes with the “he's rigid about everything” narrative. Maybe he was rigid about some things and chaotic about others. That's not unusual. It's human. Add in ARFID-style food rules and a vegetarian fixation, and you get a portrait of narrow control lanes surrounded by disorder—and a person who may have mistaken copyable rituals for identity. Important: Levothyroxine is a common, life-improving medication when properly dosed. The point here is context. If the physiology is off and the psychology is overloaded, you get turbulence. That turbulence doesn't create monsters—but it can fuel patterns we later recognize in hindsight. If this kind of granular breakdown helps you think more clearly about the case—and about how medical and behavioral factors collide—subscribe, comment your take, and share this segment with someone who cares about the details.

Step inside the hidden world of telepathy, MK Ultra, and the secret “Council of Nine.” In this explosive conversation, Nephilim Death Squad joins Triple Garcia of Para Radio Podcast to unravel the chilling links between vaccines, autism, frequency manipulation, synthetic telepathy, and ancient occult rituals. From Operation Paperclip and the CIA's Edgewood Arsenal experiments to the modern “Telepathy Tapes” phenomenon, we expose how trauma, frequency, and heavy metals could be used to force contact with otherworldly entities. Are these “non-verbal telepathic kids” proof of a new stage in human evolution — or the ultimate product of MK Ultra gone global? If you've wondered about Stranger Things, Project Monarch, alien abductions, satanic ritual abuse, or the Biblical Tower of Babel, this is the deep dive you can't miss.☠️ NEPHILIM DEATH SQUAD   Skip the ads.

Welcome to episode 106. In this episode, we explore the connection between trauma and neurodivergence, looking at why neurodivergent people are often more vulnerable—even to experiences others might not view as traumatic. Living in a world that isn't designed for our brains can add to that sense of overwhelm, so this episode is a gentle reminder of the power of self-forgiveness, self-kindness, and how seeking trauma-informed support - no matter your background or experiences – can lead to healing and a happier life. Let's dive in. In this episode: The definition of trauma, and how everyday overwhelm puts neurodivergent people at greater risk. The impact of trauma on body and mind – How it can manifest as chronic pain, illness, or anxiety – not just emotional pain. The power of self-forgiveness – How releasing self-blame creates space for healing, self-advocacy, and accessing trauma-informed support.   This episode is sponsored by Katya Willems of Katya's Microadventures Connect with Katya here:  @katyas_microadventures   Join my incredible community The Happier Life Hub for just £20 per month https://happier-life.co.uk/hub If this podcast episode resonated with you and you'd like to support me to make more podcast content, please buy me a coffee here - https://ko-fi.com/happierlifecoach - your support is hugely appreciated.

Bryan Kohberger's Diagnoses: Autism, OCD, ADHD & ARFID — What They Mean (and Don't) Bryan Kohberger shocked the world when he admitted to murdering four University of Idaho students in November 2022. But in 2025, inside a quiet courtroom, another revelation came to light: a list of mental health diagnoses Kohberger disclosed on his competency waiver. Autism Spectrum Disorder (Level 1). Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). And Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID). What do these diagnoses actually mean? And do they shed light on the disturbing path that led Kohberger to stalk, plan, and brutally end four young lives? In this episode, we break down each condition in plain, human terms — autism, OCD, ADHD, ARFID — and explore how they may have shaped certain aspects of Kohberger's personality and behavior. From his rigid eating habits to his obsessive control over details, from social detachment to hyperfocus on crime, the diagnoses paint a complicated picture of a troubled man. But here's the crucial point: these conditions explain quirks, not choices. Millions of people live with autism, OCD, ADHD, or ARFID. They face challenges, but they do not commit violent crimes. Kohberger's actions were not driven by uncontrollable compulsions or neurological destiny. They were deliberate. Calculated. And deadly. This is not a story about labels. It's about accountability. The court made that clear when Kohberger admitted his conditions did not impair his decision-making. The diagnoses may help us understand him — but they do not excuse him. Join us as we dive into the chilling story of Bryan Kohberger's courtroom diagnoses, the context behind them, and why they fail to answer the haunting question that still lingers: why? #BryanKohberger #IdahoFour #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #Podcast #Autism #OCD #ADHD #ARFID #TrueCrimePodcast #Justice Welcome to the "Week in Review," where we delve into the true stories behind this week's headlines.

Not many will be saved? Religion and Autism? Is the Holy Spirit God's Grace? Join us for Called to Communion with Dr. David Anders.

Heather McKean and Kent McKean dive into the explosive rise in autism and other neurodivergences—not to assign blame or “cure” identity, but to ask better questions about what today's physical, emotional, and cultural environments are doing to developing brains. They unpack historical data, presentism, and labels; reframe “maladaptive” patterns as survival adaptations (and sometimes superpowers); and outline a Mind Change path focused on nervous-system safety, subconscious rewiring, and family-wide healing—keeping uniqueness while relieving unnecessary suffering. What we covered in this episode:

Today, Barbara was unable to co-host with Dr. Stephanie. For today, Dr. Stephanie is joined by Jeremy Rochford of Our Neuro Fam and Just the Guys to discuss Dr. Attwood's newest book, written by co-author Maxine Aston.This year marks 5 years of the ND Couples Podcast, and we welcome Dr. Tony Attwood back to the show to share his decades of experience.Professor Tony Attwood is a clinical psychologist who has specialized in autism spectrum disorders since he qualified as a clinical psychologist in England in 1975. He currently works in his own private practice and is also an adjunct professor at Griffith University, Queensland, and a senior consultant at the Minds and Hearts clinic in Brisbane. His book Asperger's Syndrome – A Guide for Parents and Professionals has sold over 400,000 copies and has been translated into 27 languages. His subsequent book, The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome, published in October 2006, has sold over 300,000 copies and has been translated into 18 languages, and is one of the primary textbooks on Asperger's syndrome. He has several subsequent books published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers, Future Horizons Inc., and Guilford Press. Dr. Tony has been invited to be a keynote speaker at many Australasian and International Conferences. He presents workshops and runs training courses for parents, professionals, and individuals with Asperger's syndrome all over the world and is a prolific author of scientific papers and books on the subject. He has worked with many thousands of individuals of all ages with Asperger's syndrome or an Autism Spectrum Disorder. www.tonyattwood.com.auThe book:https://www.amazon.com/Relationship-Counselling-Autistic-Neurodiverse-Couples/dp/1805013025

Today's episode is about excitation-inhibition with specific attention with an inhibitory neuron called parvalbumin interneurons (PVINs). The discussion covers the medial prefrontal cortex, insular cortex, and salience network, linking their dysfunction to autistic traits like sensory over-responsiveness and social deficits. We cover two articles, alongside the CNTNAP2 protein's role in neural circuit organization and its implications for Autism.The episode also critiques the 1985 theory of mind framework, emphasizing autistic strengths in interoception and intuition, which suggest a sensory-social trade-off that enhances learning and information processing. PVIN hypofunction is connected to social deficits and rigid thinking, supported by a 2017 post-mortem study showing a 38-70% reduction in prefrontal PVINs. The discussion integrates prior research on salience network hyper-connectivity and emotional processing deficits in autism.Daylight Computer Companyuse "autism" for $50 off athttps://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devicesuse "autism" for 10% discount athttps://getchroma.co/?ref=autism00:00 - Parvalbumin InterneuronsFujima et al., social familiarity, emotion recognition, graphical abstract.02:03 - Neuron InteractionsPVIN activity, social interactions, familiar/stressed peers, pyramidal neurons, excitation-inhibition balance.04:10 - Daylight Computer use "autism" for $50 discount06:38 - Chroma Light Devices use "autism" for 10% discount09:46 - Medial Prefrontal Cortex in AutismDecision-making, social cognition, self-referential thinking, anterior cingulate cortex12:38 - Insular Cortex and Salience NetworkInsular cortex, anterior insula, salience network, emotional states, bodily signals, social cues, autistic intuition.15:06 - Parvalbumin InterneuronsPVINs, GABAergic, fast-spiking, cortex/hippocampus/basal ganglia, inhibition, neural synchronization, social/emotional processing.17:08 - Fujima et al.

Send us a textSheri raised in South Jersey by a single mom. Her father left the family when she was 3 and was in her life sporadically until she severed the relationship with him when she was 28. Her family has deep roots in a blue collar, Irish Catholic neighborhood in Southwest Philadelphia. Sheri's first introduction to trauma was through a relationship she had in her 20's. She met this man within a year of his return from the first Gulf War where he served on the ground in the Army during Desert Storm. At the time he was suffering from undiagnosed PTSD and was putting himself through art school in Philadelphia. This relationship continued for about 16 years. She was his unconditional support and he was her greatest cheerleader. The experience with him set her on the path to the work she does now. At the age of 27 Sheri enrolled in Rutgers University in Camden where she acquired a BA in Psychology with a minor in Philosophy. During her time at Rutgers she worked as a direct support professional at a Neuro Behavioral Stabilization unit with kids with Autism and other intellectual disabilities who wereexhibited severe crisis behavior. Within a year of graduating, the events of September 11 th occurred and as a result Sheri enrolled at Chestnut Hill College where she received a Master of Science in Counseling and Human Services with a concentration in Psychological Trauma. While completing graduate school Sheri did an internship at the sexual assault crisis center in Camden NJ and provided in home counseling to kids in crisis due to abuse, grief and sometimes a combination of both. She also worked for Children's Mobile Response team in Camden County. In 2009 Sheri started a job as a Behavior Specialist at a school which served students who could not be were not able to be educated in their home districts. The students displayed moderate to severe behavior problems as well as a variety of intellectual, learning and mental health disabilities. While she worked there she became certified as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and remained in the position for 14 years.
