All the times that an autistic person is perceived as overreacting to a sensory event in the environment, they're not overreacting, they're responding in a totally proportionate way to what they're experiencing.
What does it really mean to live with autism? In this episode of the UK Health Radio Podcast, Evelyn Chalmer from Edelf Child Therapy Ltd. dives deep into the world of autism with Rorie Fulton and Emma Reardon from Autism Wellbeing Community Interest Company. They shed light on the sensory experiences of autistic individuals, debunk common myths, and highlight the importance of responsive communication.
But that's not all - they also discuss the crucial role of family support and the long journey to securing Education, Health & Care Plans (EHCPs). Rorie and Emma, who have personal diagnoses of autism, dyspraxia, dyslexia, and ADHD, share their firsthand experiences. They emphasize the need for non-autistic coalition partners to truly understand and meet autistic people halfway.
This episode is packed with practical insights and heartfelt stories that underscore the importance of acknowledging and validating the sensory experiences of autistic individuals. Listeners will find valuable information on how to support autistic individuals in education and employment settings, as well as tips for enhancing emotional wellbeing. Whether you're a parent, educator, or simply someone interested in autism, this episode offers a wealth of knowledge and empathy.
Tune in to hear real stories and gain a deeper understanding of what it means to live with autism.
