All Autism Talk

Understanding the Autistic and ADHD Nervous System


Listen Later

Dr. Megan Anna Neff, a neurodivergent psychologist (autistic & ADHD) and founder of Neurodivergent Insights, returns to discuss the complexities of the nervous system, particularly autism and ADHD. She helps us understand the difference between sympathetic and parasympathetic responses, the concept of flooding, and the various triggers that can lead to stress responses. Dr. Neff also offers helpful strategies for nervous system regulation and the concept of the 'window of tolerance' and how it affects emotional regulation. This discussion is fascinating and valuable for caregivers and anyone with a nervous system.
