Just skim-reading this makes me extremely angry. I can't imagine the pain of being there. It sounds very much like a prison system, but what have those children done to deserve such punishment?

Has anyone watched Patience on Channel 4? Patience, a brilliant self-taught criminologist, helps police solve crime. Patience is #autistic, and so is the actor playing her, Ella Maisy Purvis. What's your opinion on the portrayal of autism? It's certainly not a subtle take.

Life has changed drastically over my 5 years of #sobriety. However, what remains true is - whether 5 years, 5 months or 5 hours - each sober moment is a privilege. As time passes, staying sober requires less and less effort, but the privilege must never be taken for granted.

I now have a long list of emails from people for the consultation meetings. There are 5x more people than I can involve in this stage - sadly. However, it tells me how awesome the network is (huge thanks to everyone who shared!) and also the support for this topic to be explored.

Who is going to UKIOCongress this year? I’m very pleased to be presenting a poster on making research more accessible for autistic/ADHD people. If neurodivergent people can’t participate in your research, how can you understand our needs and start to meet them? See you there!

This is such a perfect example of what I spoke about at House of Lords Autism Act 2009 Committee yesterday - the impact of our insider perspectives in teaching non autistic colleagues how to care for autistic or neurodivergent patients. A fabulous project by Autistic Doctors International member Neurodivergent Dr 👏👏

Epistemic injustice... being autistic means one’s credibility and capacity to relate an accurate account of one’s own experience is often questioned. How can I be a doctor if I am autistic? Conversely, how can I be autistic if I am a doctor? thelancet.com/journals/lance…
