Episode 3,   Jan 10, 2023, 01:02 AM

‘Autistic Voices’ is an opportunity to air and discuss topics such as the lived experience; anxiety and stress; myths and truths; mental wealth and emotional wellbeing; physical health; ‘discovering’ your neurodivergence; the long journey to EHCPs (Education, Health & Care Plans); Are they a necessity? Do they help or hinder us? Support for families; what agencies are out there? Safeguarding – is it appropriate or does it need a review? Education and beyond; the world of college, university, work and the importance of contributing to society; independent living; friendships and relationships; navigating sexuality and gender; life expectancy and choices and debating the divide in neurodivergent culture between those for and against ABA (Applied Behaviour Analysis). The world needs to join in on the conversation – come and get your voice heard!

Evalynne chats with linguist Silvan from his home in Ireland, about ice baths, what it means to be an Adaptive Autist, ADHDer, Hyperlexic learner and Neurodivergence coach and speaker.
