In my opinion, the question isn’t how to stop it, the question is what it might be communicating.

Every behavior and every word can provide information about a child’s experience. When we start there, support becomes more meaningful and more effective.

What are your thoughts on this approach? Curious to know what you’d do different, or what you’d add to the discussion. ⬇️

Children deserve support when they’re having a hard time, not silence. We need to ask harder questions about the long-term cost of planned ignoring.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this below ⬇️

Reminder…both tears and laughter can help the nervous system move toward regulation and physiological balance.

The “higher IQ” point surprises a lot of people because, in the general population, higher IQ is usually considered somewhat protective against su***de risk. But in autistic individuals, studies found the reverse relationship.

Research on “2E” autistic people (autistic + very high IQ) found that autistic youth with an IQ of 120+ were 6 times more likely to report suicidal thoughts than autistic youth with average IQs.

The goal here isn’t fear. Being aware of these statistics matter because early understanding, safe support systems, and reducing the pressure to mask can genuinely save autistic lives!

Visual referencing can be a really helpful skill to develop.

Have you tried this in your sessions?

Okay but can we talk about how IMPORTANT this is?!

NeuroFirmX was built with intention from day one:

✔️ Center marginalized voices
✔️ Prioritize autistic speakers
✔️ Amplify lived experience
✔️ PAY PEOPLE for their expertise

86% of our lineup is autistic and we are SO proud of the conversations happening at NeuroAffirm X.

We’re kicking things off with and trust me… you are going to leave thinking deeper, learning more, and probably unlearning a lot too.

We cannot WAIT to see you there :-) (neuroaffirmx.com)
