Episode Details

We celebrate a milestone and close our neurodivergent series by translating common “buzzwords” into clear, humane guides for daily life. We name RSD, PDA, masking, stimming, task paralysis, autistic inertia, shutdowns and meltdowns, then show how to spot them and care for yourself with practical tools.

• why precise language reduces shame and unlocks support
• RSD signs, what it is not, and in‑the‑moment scripts
• PDA as anxiety to demands and choice‑based reframes
• fear of being perceived and low‑exposure accommodations
• stimming as regulation with safer substitutions
• task paralysis tools and removing perfection friction
• autistic inertia momentum, stopping, and transition rituals
• shutdown vs meltdown cues,
