Never one to avoid jumping on a bandwagon when nobody asked her to. Looking forward to also hearing about their great ideas for making workplaces and employers more accommodating of neurodivergence when everyone's benefits get cut.

Oh, and just as a by the way, for a purely personal opinion. Try living in a society where you're constantly told you don't/shouldn't exist for one reason or another, or have your life experiences either dismissed out of hand or full on ignored, and then see how important your identity is to you. 4/

Exploring growing number of university students with additional needs for my PhD and what you're saying is true in that scenario also. Impossible for lecturers to be aware of and abide by countless individual reasonable adjustments for all students. It requires a total shift in learning provision.

The more I think about this the more it smacks of RFK and his autism "research" - they already know what they want the answer to be and will engineer the results accordingly to fit the course of action they want to follow. "Oh there IS overdiagnosis after all Wes, look how that worked out for you"
