Beschrijving

In this episode, we are busting the most common autism myths that still circulate today! Whether you are an autistic adult, a parent of a newly diagnosed child, a therapist like us, or an educator, understanding the truth about autistic individuals is crucial.  We're answering this listener question: * My partner says I’m "cold" or "dismissive" when we argue because I try to find logical solutions instead of just comforting them. How do I explain my communication style without sounding like I'm making excuses or not caring? And we're covering myths like: - Autistic sense of justice or justice sensitivity - Whether or not autistic people have empathy - Literal thinking - Direct communication Plus other common things that get thrown around all of the time when discussing autism or the autism spectrum. Want to check in on your own knowledge?

ADHD Meds: Help, Not a Cure

This episode explores ADHD, medication options, and navigating healthcare as a college student. We share insight about diagnosis, medication types, and advocating for support at college - and with your doctor! Disclaimer: We are not medical professionals! Do some more research and touch base with your provider, please. We're answering: * Are ADHD medications going to cure my problems? I’m starting my first year of college and my high school teachers helped me with IEP things but I don’t think my professors will do the same things. I was thinking of asking my mom to help me talk to my doctor about medications but I don’t know where to start. Am I allowed to ask or do I have to pass tests? Thanks for your help. * What is it like to take adhd meds? My dr wants to put me on them but it sounds like there’s a lot of different types Show notes:  * Therapists - Join us June 17, 2026, at 12pm Pacific time: https://www.cryptidlearns.com/course/kink-healing-inner-child-live [https://www.cryptidlearns.com/course/kink-healing-inner-child-live] To ask us questions, fill out the form at www.neurokink.org/auys [https://www.neurokink.org/auys] Find more content on Patreon (18+): www.patreon.com/AcesUpYourSleevePodcast [https://www.patreon.com/AcesUpYourSleevePodcast] Sabrina at www.radicalingingishtsconsulting.com [https://www.radicalingingishtsconsulting.com] or @radicalinsightsconsulting on social media (FB [https://www.facebook.com/radicalinsightsconsulting], IG [https://www.instagram.com/radicalinsightsconsulting/]) Kade at www.cryptidlearns.com [https://www.cryptidlearns.com/] or @cryptidlearns on social media (FB [http://www.facebook.com/cryptidlearns], IG [http://www.instagram.com/cryptidlearns])
