Hey! I'm Johnny Profane… back after a 6-month bout of the "shys" to launch Season 5 of AutisticAF Out Loud. Missed you guys… But I'm here now, at least for the moment... Let's do something great with that moment, shall we?This seems like the perfect occasion to talk about Time… and how it passes. A crucial topic… whether you're autistic or ADHD, wonder if you are, have kids or a loved one, work with some, or work to support us…I want to give you my experience of autistic time. Which is not chained to clocks or calendars. And different enough from what most folks expect… that I've struggled for two years… just to use my words. So I've turned to art. Which is both adult and intense at points…Some of the images are available as posters. And stick around to the end for a special AI-generated treat. Google's NotebookLM creates a lively dialogue between two AI commentators to break down the key ideas… especially for non-autistics. It's like having digital study buddies to help process all this time-bending stuff!Every clock is a handgun pointed at my headIIIEvery clock is a handgun pointed at my headEvery tick, tick… fucking tickTolling Fear, Doom… dreadClick. Slide. Cock… click.Every night a mantra echoes through my headTV static… a crazy-making humSinging Dream, Drempt… dead…Not done. Not done. Not done… undone.10, 9, 8… Dread7, 6, 5… Fear4, 3, 2… BEEP.Shoot the moon… or the country next doorCountdown. Deadline. Bow down… dead.Bound behind doors, bound in my headPace, paces, pacing… pacedEvery BEEP.Of the phone.Stops…my heart. . . . I crash out with a scream for escapeIIWoodsDeep woodsDeepest woodsMy ears flyfrom bird songto bird song.A raptor circles then spiralsCrossing lines now deadWind steals my breathTaking words never saidThis skin bag of atmosphereBreathes new airWhen the sun risesFirst it is coolThen it gets warmThe day passesClouds above my head.Shaped by windOutside my bodyThe same windInside my bodyThesamewindYet…I10, 9, 8… Dread7, 6, 5… Fear4, 3, 2… BEEP.Shoot the moon… or the country next doorCountdown. Deadline. Bow down… dead.Every clock is a handgun pointed at my headzeroThe Māori must be a wise people. They really get autistic time.Or at least, Keri Opai did back in 2017. That's when he coined their new dictionary entry for autism, Takiwātanga, “in his or her own time and space.”Keri is an author, educator, and social activist. He certainly knew of the Western Medical Model of autism. But… it seems, Keri's childhood pal, Peter, was autistic. So Keri just could not bring himself to define us as broken.No medical pathology in Keri's words. No disabling pity. Rather, respect. Even admiration…He, and his people, saw what many of us feel. Our deep connection with natural rhythms. Our walk through the world at our own pace. On our own path. Maybe in our own dimensions of time & space.Takiwātanga. A dictionary definition born out of love. It captures the heart of my autistic life — a different walk through time and space.Reflecting on Keri's compassionate wisdom… My guess is that the Māoris, at least, are glad we're on the planet. Not because of our needs. Because of our contributions. Rooted in our different perceptions, our outsider experiences.Let's dive deeper into Māoris, autism, and our journey through time perception. After this quick word, got bills to pay…[ad]This podcast is supported solely by listeners like you. We believe no one should have to pay to be autistic. Which is why we offer all our autistic information for free. To ensure this resource remains available for those who can't afford it, consider choosing a paid subscription at johnnyprofaneknapp.substack.com. Link in the description.So, maybe the Māoris offer the understanding we autistics need. But Western science still struggles to catch up. Their “Autistic Spectrum”? A laundry list of supposed problems… like “Time Blindness.” Only a problem from an ableist point of view. In an industrialist society.Problems that might be strengths in a different time, a different place.Try as I might, I could never measure my time by checking off boxes under “Goals Met.” Like how many widgets I punch out each hour. Which has nothing to do with my quality of life... which is very much wrapped up in the joy of my process.Why do I want to make you feel how I experience time as an autistic person? How can we understand each other... care for each other... if we don't explore each other?Why do I use art? Because research trends and terms change with the times... like all things human made. I could wave my hands and quote “neuroplasticity” & “quantum effects” all day and into the night. But that would negate my words in a few years. When the whole research paradigm changes… yet again.But raw human experience endures. So… I offer you poetry. So… I offer you images.So… I welcome you into my world.#AutisticAF Out Loud Newsletter is a reader-supported publication.

To leave a one-time tip of any amount, please visit Ko-Fi.Right up front, every time…We autistics are not all the same.Example: Most folks know autistic kids and adults may have sensory differences. What most don't know? Some of us are not overwhelmed by loud noise, bright lights, big crowds.Some of us are exhilarated… by them.And some… like me… experience a bit of both…So then, what do we share in common as autists? An UN-common sensitivity and reaction to extreme sensory input. Yet, we respond in individual ways… because we've lived different lives.Keep that in mind as I discuss my personal experiences of time, memory… thought. Both research and personal stories show we autists experience time in ways uncommon for most humans.But each of us experiences time differently. Even as polar opposites.In My Autistic TimeWant me for dinner? I may bust a gut to please you. AND yet…I'll end up mumbling some variation of “I have no freaking clue how so much time could have passed... um, again.”But get me focused… particularly on my passions… writing or music?I effortlessly monitor… fractions of a second...To hit precisely…The right hesitation… of that one… musical note.Or the perfect combo… of word choice… and white space…That.Makes…The phrase.Now, weirdly, any period much longer than a day? All kinda melts together. I can forget to send in a vital Social Security form, thinking, “I just got it yesterday. I still got time…” Weeks later. Months later. Too much later…Or I might pick up a convo in mid-sentence when I see a friend. From the last time I saw him. Which coulda been two jobs… and a career or so... ago.Like I have one button on my clock, “NOW.” And for bonus points, its alarm function has no mega-freaking clue… How long it takes to complete any task invented by any human.At any time in history.Or any space we've ever occupied."Sure, hon, I'll make dinner tonight! That fake rice-a-roni I make takes 14 minutes to boil. I'll see ya in about 20.” One annoyed emoji and an hour later…

Anouk discusses the unrealistic expectations society places on children to behave in a certain way, particularly challenging for emotionally intense kids. Anouk emphasizes the importance of adapting the environment and changing expectations, rather than trying to change the child.By focusing on the child's current needs and providing necessary accommodations, parents can support their children in developing resilience and adapting to the world as they grow older.Anouk encourages listeners to consider whether their expectations are realistic in the moment and provides valuable insights on parenting emotionally intense kids."Most of the time, we need to make changes around the child for them to then be able to collaborate, learn, behave, act in a way that we are that is expected of them."Make sure to subscribe to our podcast for future episodes and leave a rating and review, that helps us get in front of more parents.

Welcome back to "Parenting the Intensity!"In this episode we have on parenting coach and neuropsychologist, Dr. Gila, to talk with us about the unique challenges faced by single parents (but don't run if you are not a single parent, there so many things that apply to everyone). Gila shares insights on the importance of self-care, decision-making, and handling intense moments with kids when you are alone with them. With her expertise and personal experience as a single parent, Dr Gila offers valuable advice, practical tips, and resources to help single parents navigate the complexities of raising intense kids. Join us as we explore the strategies and support that can make a positive impact in single parenting emotionally intense kids.3 key takeaways:1️⃣ Self-Care for Single Parents: Dr Gila emphasizes the importance of self-care for single parents, highlighting that taking time for oneself is essential for being able to show up for their children. She encourages single parents to seek support from sources other than a romantic partner for decision-making and recommends journaling as a way to process thoughts and emotions.2️⃣Emotional Regulation and Connection: Dr Gila uses the metaphor of a sink to explain emotional regulation, emphasizing the need to recognize when the "sink" is getting full.

Elyse Cizek is a writer and a musician who opens up about her journey of self-reflection and change, what it's been like living with BPD, and how she manages relationships in her life given her diagnosis. She also shares a number of incredible self-soothing tactics that have helped her along the way.

Recognize that I am dysregulated. Stepping outside and observing how I'm feeling helps me to separate the feelings/fear from reality and allow myself to feel them, but without the urgency to act.2. Talk to myself. Out loud. “Hey, I'm here. You're ok. You're safe.” Saying things like this, wrapping my arms around myself, kissing my shoulders, rubbing my cheeks…I can be angry, sad, overwhelmed, but I get to do it in the safe embrace of myself.3. Ask myself what I need. Again. Out loud. Do I need a glass of water? To go outside? Something to eat? The process of cooking or preparing food, filling a glass of water, etc, is excellent in these times. I cry while I do it. I scream. I lay on the floor if I need to, then get back up. 4. Do something with my hands. Wash a dish, write something down, sweep my floors, take my dog outside, again-preparing food. All of it helps keep my brain preoccupied. 5. Call someone. Anyone. Talk to a human being. About anything. If I'm not at home:All of these work but if I'm in public (like a gym or a movie theater) and a panic attack comes on, I go outside. The self-soothing of embracing myself and talking to myself is still a major first step. Who cares who's watching?! Besides that, I will run around the block or call a friend.WAYS TO HELP THE MIHH PODCASTSubscribe via iTunes and leave a review.

In today's world, stress and anxiety have become unwelcome companions for many of us. The potentially stressful demands of everyday life often leave us feeling overwhelmed, trapped in a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions that seem impossible to escape. However guided meditation is a powerful tool at our disposal that can help us regain control over our minds and emotions.These guided meditation sessions are designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and alleviate anxiety. When it comes to coping with overwhelming emotions, guided meditation can be a game-changer. Here are some of the remarkable benefits it offers:Clarity Amid Chaos: When overwhelmed by intense emotions, it's easy to lose perspective. Meditation provides a lifeline, guiding you to a place of inner calm and clarity. By focusing on the soothing voice and following the instructions, you can gradually detach from the storm of emotions and gain a clearer understanding of what you're feeling and why.Emotional Regulation: One of the primary benefits of guided meditation is its ability to help you regulate your emotions. By teaching you to observe your thoughts and feelings without judgment, it empowers you to respond to them more skillfully. You'll learn to acknowledge your emotions without being consumed by them, fostering emotional resilience.Reduced Stress and Anxiety: Guided meditation is a powerful antidote to the physical and mental toll of stress and anxiety. Through relaxation techniques, controlled breathing, and visualisation, it triggers the body's relaxation response, lowering cortisol levels and promoting a sense of calm. Regular practice can significantly reduce the frequency and intensity of anxiety attacks.Enhanced Self-Awareness: Feeling overwhelmed often stems from a lack of self-awareness. Guided meditation encourages self-reflection, allowing you to explore the root causes of your emotional turbulence. With increased self-awareness, you can identify triggers and develop healthier coping strategies.Improved Focus and Concentration: Overwhelm can scatter your attention and hinder productivity. Meditation hones your ability to focus. As you learn to concentrate on the present moment, distractions lose their power, enabling you to tackle tasks with greater efficiency.Better Sleep: Sleep is essential for emotional well-being, and intense emotions can disrupt your sleep patterns. Guided meditation can help calm your mind, making it easier to fall asleep and enjoy a more restful night.Increased Resilience: Life is full of challenges, and meditation can help you build resilience to face them. By regularly practicing meditation, you'll develop a reservoir of inner strength that enables you to navigate adversity with greater ease.Enhanced Mind-Body Connection: Guided meditation encourages you to be present in your body, fostering a deeper connection between your physical and emotional experiences. This can be especially helpful in managing emotions related to physical discomfort or pain.Positive Mindset Cultivation: Over time, meditation can shift your mindset from one of fear and apprehension to one of positivity and gratitude. It helps you re-frame negative thought patterns and replace them with more optimistic ones.In the end guided meditation is a valuable tool for those seeking relief from overwhelming emotions and the weight of stress and anxiety. By dedicating time to this practice, you can gain control over your mind, foster emotional resilience, and find serenity in the midst of life's challenges. Whether you're new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner, the benefits are accessible to anyone willing to embark on this journey of self-discovery and healing.Support the show

In this episode, Goldyn shares the deeper meanings behind rage and the intense emotions that you may feel are not in your control. Many of you have grown up in families where emotions were often out of control or suppressed.

Since emotions are energy in motion you can then find ways to become more in control of the energy you are conducting from and create a more optimal life experience. There are answers in your rage that you need in order to expand and grow into the next phase of your evolution and those answers are revealed in this very show.

In this episode, we learn to use inquiry to ask questions designed to nurture one's heart. These questions may include: “How can I care for myself?” “How can I support myself when I'm feeling intense emotions?” When you thoroughly explore the question, you can access your capacity to observe it transparently, without negativity, simply witnessing it as a challenging emotion. Learning how to support yourself when you're in such a difficult emotion is both subtle and powerful. It is a three-step process of embracing and identifying the emotion or feeling, asking the right questions that will guide you to care for yourself during the experience, then listening to the guidance and giving your best efforts to fulfill what is being suggested. Keep in mind that your tone of voice matters a lot. This guided meditation will help you to embrace a specific fear or emotion with keen awareness—simply noticing it, being aware of it, and not resisting it. Recognize that when you are faced with a challenging emotion, and you ask questions from your heart or from a self-caring tone, you will begin to feel a sense of safety and security and a direction that you need to go to support yourself. All of us have challenging emotions and feelings, and what's needed is to add this intention, this desire to deeply care for yourself, gently identify your feeling, ask caring questions, respond to the wisdom that comes, and for it to be the center of your daily life. This holistic approach enables you to foster a deeper connection with yourself and a greater sense of tranquility and intimacy with others. • The Introspective Guides: download your copy here. • Watch the video of this episode: on our YouTube channel. • Read the transcription & listen to this episode: at Awareness That Heals.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to parent Hannah Baldwin about teaching her children mind management techniques. This is part of a series I am doing on questions you submitted for my new book on children's mental health. This was Hannah's question: “My kids are 12, 10, and 8. I personally have been through extensive brain rewiring and parent accordingly to help my kids overcome toxic thought loops. However my 8 year old loops more often than not and is incredibly spiritually sensitive and is very empathic. I really believe her migraines are stress induced as they almost always follow a tough day at school, being bullied, or when she has had a day of high and happy emotions. While I try to implement as many calming and mind-management strategies as possible, I find myself completely exhausted and burned out as a result of trying to do the deeper mental work with her to help her stay mentally healthy and build resilience to and through tough emotional days. How do I help an empathic 8 year old navigate incredibly intense emotions from a vantage point of giving her tools to use that will help her mental health thrive long term?”.

Are you resentful of your spouse? Overwhelmed by your daily to-do list? Feeling guilt and regret about the past? Do your emotional outbursts make things worse instead of better? Your feelings don't tell you the truth about what's going on in the outside world. They reflect your beliefs about YOURSELF in relation to what's going on. In this episode, I teach you how to apply my favorite tool -- the Emotional Ownership Statement. Because the first order of operations in any problem is to solve for your feelings. As you know, the more emotional you feel, the less rational you are. Learning to manage your emotions is a SKILL. It takes practice and patience. The more you do it, the easier and more rewarding it gets. Have questions?

Parenting a differently wired child can be challenging and as I sat down with my guest, clinical social worker Pat Harvey, to have this conversation, I wanted to acknowledge and validate the experiences we have as parents as much as we do the same for our kids. As you'll hear from Pat, her work centers around helping parents navigate raising kids who have highly intense emotions …the kind of emotions that can cause big disruptions at home. In this conversation, Pat talks about her book Parenting a Teen Who has Intense Emotions, how she supports families using Dialectical Behavior Therapy or DBT, the three priorities within the DBT framework, some of the critical things to understand to effectively parent emotionally intense kids, and where to start if you are looking for more support for yourself. Pat Harvey, LCSW-C, ACSW, has been a clinical social worker for one 30 years, currently focusing on supporting and guiding parents of kids with emotional challenges using a DBT framework. The co-author of 2 books on parenting, Parenting a Child Who Has Intense Emotions and Parenting a Teen Who has Intense Emotions, a book for siblings and a book for clinicians, she has also spoken nationally and in Canada about DBT and about working with parents.Things you'll learn from this episode:The similarities and differences between cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT)How DBT prioritizes the three core tenets of safety, treatment, and quality of lifeWhy is DBT so effective in helping teens who are engaging in risky behaviors, including self-harm, suicidal ideation, or past suicide attemptsCritical things to be aware of in order to effectively parent emotionally intense kidsThe biggest roadblock for parents that prevent them from leaning into DBTWhere to start and the things to pay attention to if you are parenting an emotionally intense kid Resources mentioned for DBT & Parenting Emotionally Intense Teens:Pat Harvey's websiteParenting a Teen Who has Intense Emotions: DBT Skills to Help Your Teen Navigate Emotional and Behavioral Challenges by Pat Harvey and Britt RathboneParenting a Child Who Has Intense Emotions: Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills to Help Your Child Regulate Emotional Outbursts and Aggressive Behaviors by Pat Harvey and Jeanine PenzoHey, I'm Here Too!: A Book for Tween/Teen Siblings of a Young Person With Emotional Issues by Pat Harvey For more info, visit: https://www.tiltparenting.com/session298Support the show
