ND adults, please help me with some research for my next book. I want to hear about your experiences of burnout as a neurodivergent adult (esp when autistic, ADHD, PDA, AuDHD)

Day 2

Autistics are >9x more likely to die by suicide

>13x if you're a woman / AFAB
>28x if you're a child
These rates go up when unidentified as Autistic

Identifying Autism in people without intellectual disability is medically necessary

Lives are at stake.

I'll repeat it as many times as I have to.

Poor by #Katrionaosullivan

This lived in my head my whole life, it was in a film I saw as a kid, and I had no idea what it was. I heard it playing in my 30s and was like 'that's the song!! That's the song!!'

It still makes me cry when I listen to it

Word of the day is ‘quiddler’ (19th century): one who pays great attention to trivial matters as a way of avoiding the important ones.
