@AutisticCallum_ Absolutely agree 💯

[Laura Kerbey @LauraKerbey]

Growing up, I was often called "over sensitive" and accused of "overreacting".

But you know what?

ND individuals are not overreacting, oversensitive, clingy, or any of those negative stereotypes.

We just feel our emotions in a really BIG way!

This has been my evening up until I actually decide to get proper sleep. High masking is not fun at all & I explain this better through images.

There will be days when a child with PDA’s anxiety will be too high to comply with demands.

You might even become a target of their frustration.

I like to use the iceberg metaphor when considering how someone is acting or behaving. We only see what's above the surface.

@Neuroella Isolating myself, becoming withdrawn and introverted, hyper fixated on going over situations, exhaustion, lethargic headaches I’m not extroverted so all my meltdowns are internalised x
