About this listen

We often hear how a diagnosis of autism can be a relief, especially for those diagnosed later in life, but what happens when the treatment plan that follows the diagnosis actually makes you worse?

Dr. Angela Kingdon shares with us the winding journey following her diagnosis at age 39, including how traditional Cognitive Behavioral Therapy created new challenges, her experience with autistic burnout, and what finally helped her regain control of her life. Angela provides incredible insights for newly diagnosed individuals on how to navigate the “Autism Wars” and how to find the right healthcare provider. Angela highlights the importance of community and co-regulation for autistic individuals and discusses how her organization, Autistic Culture Podcast Network, is addressing some of autism’s “marketing problem.”
