Something Shiny: ADHD!
Do we really need labels like ADHD and AuDHD? - Neuropsychs Explored Part III

Something Shiny: ADHD!

Play Episode Listen Later Apr 2, 2025 20:22


Isabelle and David continue to explore how an official ADHD or autism or AuDHD diagnosis might be a useful bridge to belong to a community. But what about the people who see these labels as pathologizing, including famous ADHD researchers like Dr. Russell Barkely? David and Isabelle explore some of the ways that thinking of ADHD from the negatives only and leaves people using the label not as a tool for empowerment, self-understanding, and advocacy--but as an excuse. Furthermore, what about labels like "Asperger's" (low-support need/high-masking autism) that has its roots in Nazi extermination camps? Neuropsychs Explored Part III.---The pro to identifying as having ADHD that David now understands, that he didn't understand years ago, was that it allows you to fit into a culture and a group differently. He walked into a room in his 30's (at an Eye-to-Eye conference) and found himself fitting in. David needed the label to understand himself. He brings up Dr. Russell Barkley and his research—Isabelle jumps in with a factoid about Barkley's twin who had ADHD and addiction issues and died in a car accident…which helps give her context for why Barkley is so big on ADHD being a risk factor while driving. David wants to make it clear—it is a tragic story, and he's not about casting anyone as evil or bad—but Barkeley's work does do a number on people's self esteem. They look at his research and think they can't change and they start to use ADHD as an excuse, not an explanation. It's important to have compassion for people, he does talk a lot about addiction and car crashes, and we all have sad parts of our past, and its what we do now that matters. When he's talking to a room for non-ADHDers, they tend to think that people with ADHD are less, rather than more. He likes folk music and David likes rap, and David is not going to pretend to like folk music. Isabelle names that she tries to make sense of something so dehumanizing, like the six hour training she sat through of his that left her in tears, gaining some context for his story gave her a chance to reduce how slimed she felt. Knowing why does decrease suffering. Isabelle has seen a lot of hostility and backlash about AuDHD. Autism is a spectrum—yes, there are non speakers and folks with high support needs. But maybe it was what back in the day was called Asperger's, a now unused term. David names that Dr. Asperger was a Nazi (sympathizer?) Who created a line around autism (essentially how high-masking someone was) that determined who lived and died. For more on this deep history of Asperger — check out the links below. Isabelle and David agree to have a way longer conversation on the history of neurodivergence. Isabelle talks more about her neuropsych assessment, including sample questions, and fill in the blank type sentences to write. And she was given a questionnaire to give to someone who knows her well—for kids, this might be both to caregivers and teachers, so they can get data about how the kid is functioning in multiple environments. Isabelle then waits, gets a twenty-some page document, and they sit down and cover it all. Isabelle has in the months between first hearing the neuropsychologist state that she meets criteria for autism, confirming her suspicions, she went on a deep dive on all these pieces of information. Isabelle felt the fear of having this diagnosis taken away from her felt so deeply. It was so hard, even just listening to the summary, she wanted to skip to the end (another autistic trait, she is learning, wanting to know the context so she can track what's being described or knowing where it's going), and she yes, she has autism, and she burst into tears. Isabelle finally has an answer to the riddle, which a chunk of it related to ADHD, but this is another part of the mystery, like she has been looking in funhouse mirrors her whole life, and now she has an accurate reflection of who she is, like a real, non-distorted mirror. She also has “severe” ADHD. David and Isabelle dig in with how negative this criteria is (which, side note, connects to Barkley's research). Are we weather systems? Are we severely awesome? Maybe we change it to extremely? Gah. Asperger's and the history of neurodivergence Articles and books on Dr. Russell Barkley Known as a big researcher of ADHD, does really good research, and pushes forward a lot of diagnostic criteria and is in a position of power changing the game for a lot of humans. The caveat that Isabelle and David often make is that: he takes a really doom and gloom, pathologizing perspective (which are scary research-based bits of information).  Asperger's Autism: you have 40% chance of ADHD, and then DEFINITIONSNote: “Neuropsych” is shorthand for BOTH a neuropsychological assessment or a neuropsychologist (which is confusing).Neuropsychologist is "an expert in how brain injuries and conditions affect your behavior, mood and thinking skills. They perform neuropsychological evaluations to assess how your brain and mind are working and suggest treatment plans." (Source: Cleveland Clinic).A neuropsychological assessment is a series of interviews and tests (computer, written, drawing, solving puzzles, etc. no magnets, radiation, electrodes, or medical procedures involved) — the type of test is based on what is being explored. This battery (or collection) of tests, often done across multiple sessions, help a neuropsychologist determine a psychological diagnosis, treatment plan, and get a sense of how your brain works. Typically recommended by school systems/medical system to assess kids to help figure out what learning differences and accommodations may be helpful, but these assessments are not just for kids! Adults can use them to gain self-understanding, establish a baseline (if dementia or high-risk contact sports play is involved), or even figure out what parts of your brain have been injured or might be affected by brain surgery. Because kids grow and development so much, they are often redone every 2-4 years. Here's more on neuropsychological assessments from the Cleveland Clinic.Stimming (aka "Self-Stimulatory Behavior) -originally attributed to autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but also occurs in neurodivergent AND neurotypical or allistic (non-autistic) folks. It means repetitive physical movements, sounds, or actions that someone engages in (aka leg bouncing, finger tapping, hand flapping, twirling hair, humming, repeating words, staring, pacing, doodling, playing with fidgets, chewing gum, smelling or touching things..so many stims!).Useful for: so many things! For when your senses are overloaded or your understimulated, can help you focus and concentrate, can be a way to learn about or interact with your environment, or to cope with anxiety, stress, excitement, or big feels.Masking: when neurodivergent individuals pretend to be neurotypical, hide or minimize their stims, and even pretend they have the same reasons for doing things (like Isabelle saying "yes, I'm antsy" when she's pacing, when really she feels good and grounded when she paces or goes from room to room).

You wouldn't believe me if I hadn't had these before and after videos, photos, voice messages, and Danielle's own words to prove it. The story begins with her words: "I just lost her so quick. It broke my heart." In this mini documentary, you'll hear Danielle share her story chronologically as it happened. It's THAT sensational, her turnaround story. In this mini-documentary, you'll be an eye witness and see/hear:The intense pain of "losing" a child who went from neurotypical, laughing, singing, and babbling to "gone" into regressive autism. The desperation of mothering a child who stops speaking, eats the walls (pica), loses her hair, breaks out in sores, eczema, stimming and eloping. The joy of getting her children back. Pulled out from the "dark phase of autism". The victory of sending a child that was doomed to special needs helplessness and physical illness to mainstream school. The gratitude of witnessing God's grace and the joy of getting both children back.The relief of hearing her count, spell, and respond to her name and instructions. Just like any other child. The guilt and shame of not having the energy and time for the siblings. The realisation that experts, Facebook groups, and protocols were standing in the way and distracting her. The slow and challenging path to healing that starts with her own healing (and continues to this day)5 children. One of them was born with autism and no longer has symptoms. Another one regressed into severe autism and is now going to mainstream school. Doesn't fit the special needs system anymore. After watching this, you'll understand why I say that God blesses the autism turnaround community Danielle's case story is so sensational that I had to turn it into a mini documentary.

Episode SummaryCelebrating Women in STEM: A Golden Shoe ProposalNatoshia Anderson and Xena, the founder, had a conversation on Natoshia's show, "Stimming and Stilettos," discussing the importance of recognizing and celebrating the beauty and intelligence of women in male-dominated industries such as STEM. They proposed the idea of a symbol, like a "golden shoe," to represent women in STEM fields. Xena emphasized the need for more women in the workplace to normalize self-expression, reduce jealousy and microaggressions. Architecture, Diversity, and InspirationXena, the founder of an architectural firm, discussed her role in overseeing building design, often comparing it to conducting an orchestra. She shared her personal journey in architecture, influenced by her father who instilled a love of design in her. Xena highlighted the lack of diversity in the field, noting that less than 1% of architects are black women. She also discussed her recent collaboration with Kimberly Dowdell, the first black female president of the American Institute of Architects, on a coloring book project aimed at promoting representation and inspiring children. The book was launched with a book signing at the Atlanta airport, which is run by black men. Xena emphasized the importance of showing opportunities to children and questioned the efforts of organizations in doing so.Authenticity, Code-Switching, and Workplace DynamicsXena and Natoshia discussed the importance of authentic representation and the detrimental effects of code-switching, particularly in professional settings. They shared their experiences as black women in male-dominated industries and emphasized the need to encourage children to be themselves. They expressed concern about the pressure to comply with certain expectations and the potential for retribution if they didn't. They also discussed the challenges faced by young women and interns in the workplace, particularly those of color, and highlighted the importance of awareness about power dynamics. They emphasized the significance of platforms like their podcast, which provides a space for open dialogue and support.Black Women's Struggles and EmpowermentXena and Natoshia discussed the challenges they face as Black women, particularly the pressure to be perfect without making mistakes. They expressed frustration with expectations placed on them and the notion that they need to be superhuman to succeed. The conversation highlighted the need for fair pay and treatment, and the importance of not perpetuating the idea that they need to be better than their non-Black colleagues. They also touched on the importance of self-respect and individuality. Xena suggested that they should have the courage to challenge such thinking, even if it meant confronting older African Americans. The conversation concluded with satisfaction about the changing attitudes in society.Bio of Xena StrykerXena is where Architecture merges with Imagineering! Stryker is a community-driven Architectural Firm CEO committed to reconstructing underserved communities while expressing the client's culture through eye-popping art and creative design!

Jessica and Ellie explain what "stimming" is--it's basically an action that stimulates your brain that's soothing to the person doing it. While it is a trait that neurotypical people may do from time-to-time, it is something neurodivergent people do quite a bit.

We are adding tools to our instructor toolbox today with another installation of Understanding Diagnoses. This episode is a little different, we aren't going to talk about a specific diagnosis but rather something that we see most commonly as part of neurodivergent diagnoses.  Stimming. Stimming is short hand for “self-stimulating” – it's a natural and instinctive behavior that people engage in to regulate their sensory experience. Things like hand flapping, rocking, repetitive vocalizations.  Stimming is a normal thing, but what happens when it interferes with our ability to participate safely in mounted sessions? I'm hoping this episode will help normalize stimming and help folks to understand exactly what it is and when it should or shouldn't be addressed.

Being “Too Much” is a Narrative that needs to be Re-examined   Summary   Patricia discusses the wound of too much and how it can impact relationships. Too much is about BOTH people and the capacity of the other person. This is a narrative that needs to be reexamined, and the context of both people needs to be addressed. She explores the intersection of neurodivergence, trauma, and socialization. Patricia also explores the concept of rules, and how through an autistic lens, this can create some challenges.   HIGHLIGHTS   Takeaways The wound of feeling like you're too much can stem from trauma and socialization of neurotypical norms. Understanding and respecting one's own capacity and the capacity of others is crucial in communication. Navigating relationships as a neurodivergent individual requires open and honest conversations. Embracing sensitivity and accepting oneself is essential for personal well-being. Chapters (please adjust for the addition of the introduction) Points made in this episode: Exploring the concept of the "wound of too much" in relationships and self-perception. Addressing the impact of past traumas and relationship experiences on feeling "too much." Discussing the importance of understanding and respecting personal and others' capacities. Emphasizing the need for setting healthy boundaries to overcome the "wound of too much." Highlighting the dynamics of communication and capacity in relationships. Encouraging empathy and consideration for others' limits in interactions. Recognizing the interconnectedness of personal wounds of "too much" and "not enough." Offering strategies for balancing enthusiasm and respecting others' capacities. Challenging the narrative that focuses solely on one person being "too much." Advocating for a shift towards understanding and honoring both individuals' capacities. Discussing the challenges faced in relationships between neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals. Providing insights on communication, boundaries, and self-awareness in relationships. Emphasizing the importance of mutual understanding and communication in addressing capacity issues. Exploring the nuances of being perceived as "too much" and the impact on self-esteem. Encouraging self-acceptance, setting boundaries, and fostering healthy connections. 00:00 Introduction and Setting the Topic 01:36 The Wound of Too Much 06:21 PDA Profile and Autonomy 07:52 Socialization and Autistic Females 10:16 Stimming and Accommodations 11:34 Navigating Communication and Social Cues 13:17 The Fear of Being Too Much 14:07 The Influence of Others' Opinions 18:22 Shifting the Narrative: Capacity of Both Parties 20:11 Navigating Relationships with Limited Insight 21:10 Personal Examples and Communication 23:35 Finding Balance in Showing Interest 24:05 Conclusion and Encouragement PODCAST HOST Patricia was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent.

Autism awareness month is getting increasingly dangerous for autism moms. Why?Well, the loudest voices often mask lack of knowledge about the underlying causes for autism symptoms like stimming, nonverbal autism, sleep issues, pica, picky eating, tantrums and eloping. If you listen to the wrong people, you miss out on the keys to get your child to more independence and a better life. You end up believing that there's nothing you can do except coping, ABA, and being a proud autism mom.Autism acceptance and awareness without action and change leads to stagnation. From a biblical perspective, ignorance, pride and bitterness are problematic and/or sinful behaviours. Autism awareness month is drowning in demonic autism pride, online abuse of moms who want to turn symptoms around and victim mentality.In this podcast episode, Ninka-Bernadette Mautitson talks about the traps and deception that godly autism moms must avoid, underlying messages behind autism symptoms - including undermethylation, pyrrole disorder, nature deficiency, food and environmental triggers. Here are 3 ways we can start turning autism symptoms around together, whenever you're ready... 1.

Masking is a survival technique used by neurodivergent individuals to fit in and avoid harassment or bullying. It takes a toll on mental health, leading to anxiety, low self-esteem, and a constant fear of slipping up.In this episode, Jordan James and Simon Scott discuss the concept of masking and unmasking in neurodivergent people. They explore the reasons why individuals mask their true selves, the fear of not being taken seriously, the pressure to conform to societal norms, along with the deep masking experienced during teenage years. The conversation explores the benefits and challenges of masking disabilities, the dehumanizing perspective towards people with disabilities and why unmasking is a journey of self-discovery and acceptance.Takeaways:Society's judgment of neurodivergence and disability as weaknesses contributes to the fear of being authentic and the need to mask.Social media can be a breeding ground for bullying and judgment, as people feel detached and empowered to tear others down.The desire for companionship and acceptance drives individuals to mask their true selves, but it is important to find a balance between fitting in and being authentic.Authentic friendships are built on being real and accepting each other's true selves.Teaching children to mask in certain situations can help them navigate the world, but it's important to also encourage their authentic selves.Chapters00:00 Intro00:32 Masking and Unmasking01:30 The Freedom and Comfort of Masking04:22 The Toll of Masking05:23 The Challenge of Being Fully Authentic06:22 The Persona of Masking07:22 The Loss of Energy and Foundations08:20 The Deep Rest from Masking09:19 Putting on Masks to Fit In10:19 Using Comedy and Stand-up to Mask11:42 The Unmasking Effect of Conversations12:40 The Intensity of Unmasking13:37 The Breakthroughs of Speaking Out Loud14:26 The Impact of the Podcast19:15 Knowing and Communicating Limits20:14 The Need for Companionship21:35 The Pressure to Fit In23:56 The Dark Side of Social Media25:17 The Fear of Disability28:15 The Fear of Being Ostracized29:10 The Toll on Mental Health30:16 The Pressure to Meet Neurotypical Standards31:43 The Gazelle Among Lions33:39 The Fear of Ridicule35:02 The Dehumanizing Experience37:25 The View of Neurodivergence as a Developmental Disability39:17 The Gaslighting and Lack of Self-Trust40:14 The Benefit of Masking45:04 Hyperfocus on Autism46:29 Uncomfortable with Asperger's Label47:56 Hyperfixation on Autism Stereotypes50:21 Stimming and Comfort Objects56:41 Masking as a Teenager01:02:54 Starting the Unmasking Process01:05:14 Struggling with Self-Identity01:07:14 The Privilege of Masking01:18:24 Teaching Masking to Neurodivergent ChildrenWhether you're Neurodivergent yourself, a friend, family member, or simply curious about this extraordinary way of experiencing the world, this podcast is your guide to unravelling The Neurodivergent Experience.Instagram: @theneurodivergentexperiencepodFacebook: theneurodivergentexperienceYoutube: @TheNeurodivergentExperience Hosted on Acast.

“Stimming - a guide for all audiences What is stimming? “I quickly become overwhelmed [in social situations]. Is it surprising that I then feel like blocking the world out and literally putting my thoughts back in order? That I start to rock to tell myself which feelings are mine? That I start speaking to myself or groaning to block out other sounds and so that I know which thoughts are mine? I think anyone experiencing life this way would do the same.” Autistic adult Stimming or self-stimulating behaviour includes arm or hand-flapping, finger-flicking, rocking, jumping, spinning or twirling, head-banging and complex body movements. It includes the repetitive use of an object, such as flicking a rubber band or twirling a piece of string, or repetitive activities involving the senses (such as repeatedly feeling a particular texture). Why do some autistic people stim? Although stimming varies from person to person, the reasons behind it may be the same: for enjoyment an attempt to gain sensory input, eg rocking may be a way to stimulate the balance (vestibular) system; hand-flapping may provide visual stimulation an attempt to reduce sensory input, eg focusing on one particular sound may reduce the impact of a loud, distressing environment; this may particularly be seen in social situations to deal with stress and anxiety and to block out uncertainty. Should you intervene? Stimming is often very enjoyable and a way to reduce stress and so it shouldn't be stopped or reduced. However, stimming can sometimes be self-injurious, for example, head-banging or scratching.  Ask yourself if the behaviour restricts the person's opportunities, causes distress or discomfort, or impacts on learning? If it is causing difficulties, or is in some way unsafe, they may need support to stop or modify the behaviour, or reduce their reliance on it. Read our strategies if repetitive behaviour causes distress or is unsafe or self-injurious.” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

AFAB Autism Assessment: Common Questions Answered Dr. Jessica Myszak, who provides autism assessments for late-diagnosed, high masking women answers the following questions: How does autism present differently in women? Is self-diagnosis valid? Why haven't the lived experiences of women been included in the diagnostic criteria? What might social differences, repetitive and stimming behaviors look like in someone who is AFAB? We explore thoughts about HSP vs. autism? What is Pathological Demand Avoidance PDA (also known as Pervasive Drive for Autonomy)? GUEST Dr. Jessica Myszak, Licensed Psychologist HIGHLIGHTS Questions asked in this episode ·         Why are so many assigned female at birth AFAB being diagnosed with autism? ·         Is it a fad? People say you watch Tik Tok and think you're autistic ·         Is self-diagnosis valid? ·         Why haven't women and their experience and presentation of autism been included in the DSM criteria? ·         How does autism present differently for women? ·         Why is there a gap between the written criteria for autism and the lived experience for those who are AFAB? ·         If someone is an internalizer, what might stimming and repetitive behaviors look like? ·         What are your thoughts about HSP vs. autisim? ·         Do you think that HSP is a subtype of autism, or is there a profile of autism where deep feeling, deep thinking and empathy are present? ·         What is Pathological Demand Avoidance PDA, also knows as Persistent/Pervasive Drive for Autonomy? Common misconceptions about autism in females The assumption that autistic females are not interested in socializing, when in fact they may be on the fringes of social groups but never feel like they truly belong. – The assumption that autistics do not have feelings, nor do they have empathy is grossly false. Many autistics feel so much, that it is overwhelming The assumption that autistics don't or can't make eye-contact. The assumption that autistics will stim in apparent ways like rocking, hand-flapping etc. vs. thinking/processing, hair twirling, sucking cheeks in, using thumb to gently stroke hand, rubbing feet together, counting things. The assumption that autism only affects males, and as a result, assessment tools and education are often skewed towards recognizing autism in males. – Many psychologists and neurologists still rely on outdated information about autism that was learned many years ago in graduate school, which can lead to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis in females. – There is a gap between healthcare professionals who are following updated information about autism in females and those who are not. Some characteristics of autistic females Autistic females may be on the fringes of social groups but never feel like they truly belong. – Autistic females may have a strong desire to socialize and make friends, but may struggle with social cues and maintaining friendships. – Autistic females may have a tendency to mask their symptoms in social situations, which can lead to exhaustion and burnout. – Autistic females may have a strong interest in certain topics or activities, but these interests may be more socially acceptable than stereotypical "male" interests like trains or vacuum cleaners. –Interests may include relationships, personal growth, hobbies and crafts, medical information, being an avid reader, parenting, etc. Autistic females may be more likely to experience anxiety or depression than their neurotypical peers. – Autistic females may be more likely to receive a misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis due to the fact that assessment tools and education are often skewed towards recognizing autism in males.   Examples of repetitive or stimming behavior in women ·         Deep thinking and processing.  – ·         Using weighted blankets or heavy blankets for comfort.  – ·         Hair twirling, pursing lips, having tongue against the roof of the mouth, sucking on the inside of cheeks. ·         Rubbing fingers or toes together, using fidget toys, doing cricket feet (rubbing feet together). – ·         Doing a figure eight or pattern with fingers or thumbs on clothes.  – ·         Watching shows on repeat, listening to music on repeat, rereading books. ·         It's worth noting that these are just a few examples, and that repetitive or stimming behavior can take many different forms and vary widely between individuals. Ways healthcare professionals can better recognize and diagnose autism in females: - ·         Healthcare professionals should be aware that autism looks different in autistic females than it does in males, and should not rely solely on assessment tools and education that are skewed towards recognizing autism in males. – ·         Healthcare professionals should be aware of the common misconceptions about autism in autistic females, such as the assumption that they are not interested in socializing or that autism only affects males. – ·         Healthcare professionals should be aware that autistic females may mask their symptoms in social situations, which can make it more difficult to recognize their autism. – ·         Healthcare professionals should ask questions about the individual's social experiences and interests, and should not assume that their interests are stereotypical "male" interests.  ·        Healthcare professionals should be aware that autistic females may be more likely to experience anxiety or depression than their neurotypical peers, and should take this into account when making a diagnosis. – ·         Healthcare professionals should stay up-to-date on the latest research about autism in autistic females, and should seek out training and education on how to recognize and diagnose autism in this population.

She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is autistic helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with clients, therapists, and she teaches Online Courses for HSPs that focus on understanding what it means to be an HSP, self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you GUEST BIO Dr. Jessica Myszak is a Chicago-area psychologist who specializes in autism assessment for both children and adults.
