Profound Autism: An Imperative Diagnosis https://lnkd.in/g_diT6yd Still early days for the concept of profound autism and importantly, how it's defined (including how one measures the many facets of IQ). The Lancet Commission (2021) and the CDC definition/prevalence study (2023) led the way and slowly research interest is building. DSM-5 'levels' and ICD-11 presentation 'combinations' were also seemingly designed to encompass something like profound autism too. Strangely enough, I see many parallels with the way that ME/CFS has been formulated and defined down the years. Where multiple, slightly different definitions have been put forward that have taken time to be tested and redefined. I wouldn't be at all surprised if we see more than one definition of profound autism eventually emerging.

Pediatricians play a vital role in recognizing and addressing trauma in children, which can manifest in various behavioral and psychological challenges. By adopting a trauma-informed approach, physicians can shift their focus from asking "What is wrong with you?" to "What has happened to you?" This perspective allows for a deeper understanding of a child's experiences and helps tailor interventions accordingly. Learn more, https://ow.ly/soLY50QHAXy.

You can’t be autistic without a diagnosis. Sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it? That’s because it is!! Controversial, but to me, Self-diagnosis is as valid as a medical diagnosis. 👊 You don't have to prove anything to anyone, and sadly, many people feel the need to get diagnosed so that they have “evidence” of their condition. That shouldn't be the case. We should all be comfortable being who we are, regardless of what it says on paper. 🧡 With or without a diagnosis, Your needs are valid, Your struggles are real, and Your personality doesn't need “explaining!!” If this is something you’ve experienced or are currently struggling with, take a look at this article: https://lnkd.in/emtFRsXX. It’s a great read!! 📖

🌿Meet Melody Edwardson our amazing facilitator for 'Embracing the Crone' a safe and nourishing haven for Autistic women & non-binary+ (45+). 🐻Read Melody’s powerful blog on The Nourishment of Connection to Neurokin here: https://lnkd.in/ghXtUzar 🌿Why as late-identified Autistics we embrace 'crone energy' The Crone is a benevolently powerful archetypal instinct to embrace in oneself. She is battle-scarred, richly wise and deeply committed to knowing and being her true self. She is recognising her own power and has less f@cks to give about conventional ways of being. Connection with her authentic self and finding her own peace and equilibrium are her priorities. She has much to teach, to share but only on her own terms and only with those who are worthy. 🌿As late-identified Autistic women & non-binary we embrace this hard-won power. As survivors of many battles, we gather to share and appreciate each other, to compare scars, to share wisdom to learn from neurokindred on the same healing odyssey. If this resonates for you-we would love to meet you. -Melody & Linda When: Thursday 18th July. Time: 6-7.30pm (Brisbane-AEST) Where: Zoom (link sent to email) Cost: First session free (then $10*) Group max: 8 Recurring: Every first and third Thursday. RSVP: linda@neurokindred.com More information: https://lnkd.in/g9GMnQUp 🌸Hosted by Neurokindred *All funds go towards developing training for group facilitators and group promotion. However, we do not want cost to be a barrier for neurokin. We have subsidised places available for this purpose. If this is your situation please email 'Request ETC subsidy' to linda@neurokindred.com
