In June I'm re-posting the most popular episodes from the show while I take a step back to look at the big picture (because my monotropic brain has trouble doing that while also pumping out new content).
Original show notes:
What do AuDHDers need (beyond the obvious needs all humans have)? And why do those needs matter?
This episode covers some important ones:
- Being able to engage with our interests (in a particular way)
- Executive Function support, without trying to make the hardest things easy or enjoyable
- Autonomy
- True rest
- The narrow path of just enough stimulation
- Processing time
- To be witnessed in just the right way
- Recognition that our needs vary quite a bit day to day
- Coming to terms with disability
- Space and time throughout our self-discovery journey
- Safe enough spaces to explore what it means to be ourself
